Dutch House legend Laidback Luke is pushing his limits with his latest releases. He capped off the year with a mix of 80 tracks packed into just one hour, and with his latest full length studio album, FOCUS, he produced 30 tracks in 30 days.

“This album is the result of a personal challenge I set for myself: To make 30 tracks in 30 days,” said the DJ and Producer, “Happy to say I succeeded and my team and I were able to select an album’s worth of tracks! An easy response to this could be: ‘Quality takes time’, but I urge you to have a listen to the album first and then decide..”

Ranging across a variety of styles, the album filters the contemporary music landscape through the prism of his mind to provide his own unique take on the here and now. From his formative house and techno sounds in the 1990s through to pioneering the Dutch house sound in the 2000s to the stadium-filling EDM sound of his contemporary work, he has trodden an eclectic path through dance music that his new album reflects.
