MySpace a place for friends

My name is Luke Terry and according to my birth certificate I was born on Thursday 28th November 1985, as I have no personal recollection of this event you will have to take my word for it. I also have came to dislike biography pages, my own to be more specific. I think it's probably best for all parties that the music speaks for itself instead. As a result I going to write a short piece on what music I like. Hopefully this biography will be slightly different to read than the usual rambling that you may have been expecting to be here. If you don't like it, please do e-mail me with a fully written alternative and I will put it up instead. Here we go...

I have always loved electronic music from a young age. There's not many kids whom I went to school with that had A Flock of Seagulls down as a favourite artist by age 10. To this day I Ran is my favourite song of all time. I just wish I had been old enough to have seen AFOS live in their heyday. And that's pretty much where my musical tase remained until I was in my first year of senior school and became equally mesmerised by Chicane's Offshore which is probably my 2nd favourite song of all time. After buying several euro-dance style CDs and only finding one or two tracks that I liked, along came the Trance Nation compilations. MOS Trance Nation 2 mixed by Ferry Corsten, the one with the green sleeve, in my opinion, is the greatest compilation CD of all time. In fact the whole Trance Nation CD series when under the hands of Mr Corsten embody all that is good about trance music. Now, I reckon that if you can combine AFOS, Chicane, Ferry Corsten and the spirit of Trance Nation in a track, you are going to have something worth listening and hopefully dancing to.

However, we are nearly a decade on from those times. Kevin & Perry Go Large seems like a distant memory, vinyl is pretty much dead, the music in the charts is still mostly crap and each man and his dog has his own record label, including myself. Yet trance music isn't dead. It may have changed a bit but it's still basically the same. I sometimes stick an old CD on in the car when out on a run, most likely Trance Nation 2, and the music is timeless. Sure the production technique and technology is different, the melodies have changed, a lot of names have came and gone, but the music itself, it's timeless. Ferry Corsten's remix of William Orbit's take on Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings will still send any crowd who is up for it into a frenzy. Likewise will a modern anthem like John O'Callaghan's Big Sky. I think what we sometimes forget whilst getting so caught up in the music and what Paul van Dyk would have you call the Politics of Dancing is actually the music itself as that is what is important.

I have been producing since around 2003, DJing for a little bit longer and I have met an awful lot of great people through the music scene, all whom have influenced my taste in music one way or the other. I think I'm going to stop about here for now as I sense the rest will either be rambling or arguing which has been the norm over the last few years of my life at uni. So for now, if you would like to hear what music I have actually made or sets that I have pieced together from other producers please check out the samples above or visit my websites http://www.luketerry.com and http://www.unearthedrecords.com
