Luckes is a force in the Hardtechno scene, with over 15 years of commanding the decks and producing relentless tracks. Based in Rotterdam, he’s been shaping the underground scene since the early 2000s, pulling inspiration from legends like Mario Ranieri, Sven Wittekind, and Chris Liebing.
Starting out with classic vinyl MK2s, Luckes developed a sound that’s all his own, eventually breaking through with his track ‘Hard Sound’ in 2011. From there, he captured audiences with ‘Foldback’, launched his own Arnaca Records label night in Rotterdam, and curated the electrifying Creative Urban Event. His 2016 debut EP, ‘Imagination,’ marked the start of a meteoric rise, gaining support from Hardtechno giants and establishing him as a top-tier producer.
It’s clear: Luckes is rewriting the Hardtechno script. His signature pulsating rhythms and driving beats have earned him a loyal following, with tracks featured on Mad Made, DSR DGITAL, Cause Records, Cannibal Society, Kube Records, Combat Skills, and more.
With performances across Colombia, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Poland, Portugal, and more, Luckes’s relentless energy is felt on dancefloors worldwide. This isn’t just music—it’s a movement. Luckes isn’t just spinning tracks; he’s defining the future of Hardtechno.
