From in the producers chair and behind the decks, Lee Coombs has been whipping dance floors into a frenzy for more than 20 years.
Although widely regarded for playing a key role in the development of the breaks movement, Coombs musical endeavours have and always will be far more diverse. Choosing to play a mixed bag of sounds including house, electro, techno, tech-breaks, breaks and acid, Coombs also has his hands on the latest tunes and remixes going around handed to him from his producer mates, often just hours before he takes to the stage.
British born and now US resident, Coombs has since his early days in music, been at the forefront of it all; releasing groundbreaking mix CDs, remixing the world’s most acclaimed artists and knocking out dance floor destroying productions that are considered classics years after their release. With tracks appearing on more than 70 compilations across the globe and list of remix credits as long as your arm, his inclusion is well sought after by the music industry and fans alike.
In fact, over the past couple of months, he has remixed Justin Johnson and 3PO, Trent Cantrelle vs Princess Superstar, Meat Katie & Dylan Rhymes and BJX.
In 2009, his ‘light & dark’ album received a mass of attention from music fans and media alike, with four of the tracks climbing high on the Beatport charts.
