Wha Gwarn? People call me Lotek but then whats in a name? For your information my mum calls me Wayne...you can call me what you want and I'll ignore you just the same!! I founded the group Lotek Hifi in 2002 after completing a stint as musical director on Roots Manuva's "Run Come Save Me" Tour. Prior to that I spent most of my time in the studio producing tracks on 3 of Manuva's LP's and aswell as contributing in game music for Playstation 2's "The Getaway 2 : Black Monday" I have also produced/remixed/rapped or engineered for Ty,Hkb FiNN,Blak Twang,Elizabeth Troy,Sandra Melody,Diplo, Part 2/New Flesh,Mark "Chopper" Read,Sonnyjim,Plutonic Lab,Ghislain Poirier among others...(you can check my Discography and Bio on Wayne Lotek's Myspace or Lotek Hifi's Myspace ).
Its about time that I updated this blurb....AGAIN...basically I've relocated to Melbourne now...I've been doing shows all over the country these last few years and the fruits of my labours will soon be ripe...there's 3 albums worth of material now, the first of which will be a solo effort titled "Rebel Hifi" with "Control Alt Delete being the first single...then next year I will be putting out a couple of collaboration projects....
I have already recorded some wicked collabs and have a few more interesting combos lined up but I'm open to suggestions...so if you're an Aussie (resident or national) and you got beats and/or rhymes then holler...no promises but I will listen to any and everything that lands in my inbox lotekdownunder@gmail.com....thanks to all the people who've already sent me stuff...
So until next time...Rice & Peace...see you on the other side...of the PLANET!!
