Blame J- Walkin ( Ltj Bukem earth vol. 2 )

In the mid eighties, at the age of seventeen, Bukem discovered the joys of clubbing. The teenager regularly checked out the local soul clubs and legendary rare groove all dayers. During this time he also ran a jazz funk band. DJing however, was his main thing and by 1987 he gained something of a reputation for his sets. In 1990, LTJ Bukem got his first big break - at Raindance. Booked to play in front of a crowd of 10,000…

Bukem then ventured into the studio to record a track which was to become one of the most influential records of the era. This 12 titled Logical Progression surfaced on the newly formed Vinyl Mania imprint. At once anthemic and relaxing it offered the first true blueprint to Bukems sonic vision. By the time of his follow up to Logical Progression Bukem had set up his own imprint, Good Looking Records and its debut offering came in the shape of Demons Theme. Bukems next release was Apollo in 92, however his biggest breakthrough came with his next release Music in 1993. In 1994 Bukem unleashed 19.5 and the similarly epic Horizons. There were remixes, which included reworks of Jodecis Feenin and Michelle Gayles Sweetness and a collaboration with David Arnold on the infamous James Bond theme to Thunderball

The start of the 21st century saw the release of his long awaited solo album Journey Inwards; a diverse and multi directional album of drum n bass, soul, downbeat and house tracks. He has also added to his impressive remixing portfolio with his interpretation of The Essence by jazz legend Herbie Hancock.

On top of this he has continued the Progression Sessions series of live mixes captured on CD, featuring storming performances recorded live in London, the US, Tokyo, and Germany. Bukem also compiled the highly acclaimed Soulfood and Soul Addiction compilations and released not one but two Producer series CDs.

Fast-forward to 2007 Bukem and his label re-entered the fray with new quality releases including the much anticipated Double A sided 12 featuring Switch by LTJ Bukem and the mighty Drum Toolz by MC Conrad and Furney on the flip Released November 07 on Good Looking.
