With sensitive adaptability to dance music’s spectrum, Stratton trax often plays an intersectional role when playing sets. Beyond his enthusiasm for slamming techno, 90s breakbeat, and even piano house, his main proclivity lies with speed garage - the rough-and-ready genre born from the late 90s.

Commencing his intrepid streak back in 2016, Luke has since released on the likes of natural sciences and Of Paradise, his most recent EP ‘Hardcore Live Forever’ on the latter calling upon the pre-00s era of UK rave. Garnering support from Aquarian, Zenker Brothers, and more, his exceptional output has not gone unnoticed, and in Summer last year he made his first appearance at one of our UNFOLD parties.

Back in February, Stratton appeared for an epic peak-time eruption at our Ilian Tape takeover, and for this episode of DETECT, we’ve got an hour of his old and new-school flavours to two-step to.

Hello. My name is Saida Sova — a DJ, promoter, and sound explorer from Almaty. I'm a co-founder of the Ploshadka techno events in Astana and a resident of the experimental collective bULt. In my sets, I love weaving together polyrhythms, emotional textures, and unexpected sonic turns — blending bass, breaks, ambient, and emo-tinged techno. I've recorded mixes for Refuge Worldwide, LYL Radio, and perform in both club settings and interdisciplinary art spaces.
