Steve Luigi's name goes alongside the very best naturally talented DJs in the UK, not only on the Dance scene, but on the biggest underground scene in the UK, the 'Northern Soul' scene.
Steve's Love of music started in the 60s when he used to be sang to sleep by Elvis Presley and Roy Orbison, the records that his brother bought and played in their shared bedroom.
Steve went on to meet his first love in the late 60s, 'Northern Soul', and has remained true to her by still being involved in the scene over 40 years later.
Steve was the first ever DJ to play a House record in the City of Leeds, and in 1986 went on to play and promote what eventually would become the infamous 'Leeds Gallery', which in 1992 was voted the number 2 club in Europe, second only to the 'Hacienda' in Manchester, in a survey performed by ''Mixmag', an international music magazine.
Steve went on to play alongside such DJ names as;
Sasha
Pete Tong
Carl Cox
Dave Seaman
Paul Oakenfold
Marshall Jefferson
Joey Beltram
Todd Terry
Danny Rampling...............
well!..... You name them! the list REALLY IS endless.
Steve also played on various legendary radio stations such as Dream FM, Peoples FM, ABC FM, Kiss 105, and Galaxy 105, and went on to own record shops in Leeds for 18 years, constantly being voted as the best Independent record shops in the city.
Steve now broadcasts a weekly Northern Soul Radio show every Tuesday evening at 8pm.
There is really nothing else that needs to be said about Steve, as his reputation goes before him, except that now at the age of 65 he still plays and loves to play to his many supporters countrywide, "the buzz of seeing people raising their hands to his music is better than any drug" and he has no plans to end the dream that has been his life.
