Yes yes! Kongkast is back with a deep and rolling Drum & Bass mix with a difference.
This week, we’re bring you 1/3 of the well known Drum&Bass trio “Bachelors Of Science” - Lukeino (Bachelors of Science, Sublife Recordings – San Francisco).
Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Luke Argilla (akaLukeino) have been involved in music all his life. From guitar at the young age of 13, to the early vibrant underground Jungle and DnB scene in San Francisco.
As a solo artist Lukeino has released tracks on labels like Levitated, Rubik, as well as his own Sublife Recordings. His tuneshave been featured on BBC 1xtra, Fuel TV and even the #1 iPhone gameapp Tap Tap Revenge. Around 2007 he met up with the Bachelors ofScience and soon after started collaborating with them on tracks. A fewyears later, after many late nights, and a string of great shows, they invited Luke to be the 3rd official member of the group.

About LUKEINO:
Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Luke Argilla (akaLukeino) got his start with music when he bought his first guitar atthe young age of 13. Flash forward 8 years and he started writing Drum& Bass tunes inspired by SF’s vibrant underground Jungle and DnBscene. As a solo artist Lukeino has released tracks on labels likeLevitated, Rubik, as well as his own Sublife Recordings. His tuneshave been featured on BBC 1xtra, Fuel TV and even the #1 iPhone gameapp Tap Tap Revenge. Around 2007 he met up with the Bachelors ofScience and soon after started collaborating with them on tracks. A fewyears later, after many late nights, and a string of great shows, they invited Luke to be the 3rd official member of the group.
As long-time residents of the weird and always unexpected city of San Francisco, Bachelors Of Science are renowned for mixing up and making unique blends of laid back, tripped-out, soul drenched tracks that are designed to be listened to as well as just heard on the floor.
Choosing quality over quantity, they are regarded as one of the most consistently innovative and sought-after remixers and producers of the area, working with everyone from dance music legends Groove Armada and Paradox to indie darlings Home Video and Silver Swans. With their own productions, the Bachelors continue to defy those that try to categorize them into a genre. From the deep liquid drum n bass inspired by their hometown of London and the likes of High Contrast and LTJ Bukem to the minimal inspired Autonomic sounds ofdBridge and sun-drenched 4/4 grooves inspired by fellow SF locals Dirtybird … the Bachelors have retained their quality and a large and loyal following throughout, garnering plays from Annie Mac, Basement Jaxx, LTJ Bukem, High Contrast, Loxy, Doc Scott, DJ Hype,Reid Speed, Alix Perez, Grooverider and DJ Marky.
Their debut album “Science Fiction” released in 2008 to critical and commercial acclaim, became one of the top selling drum n bass albums of all time, with “Song For Lovers” and “The Ice Dance” becoming liquid drum n bass anthems and the Apex remix of “Strings Track” eventually winning “Best Drum n Bass Track” at the 2009 Beatport Awards. More recent remixes of The XX, Home Video,Death Cab For Cutie, Groove Armada and Seasick Steve have won praise across the music blogoshpere, placing them atop the Hype Machine chart for weeks in a row.
On stage, the tales of the “full Bachelors Of Science set” are the stuff of legend. Having performed alongside acts as diverse asPendulum, LTJ Bukem, High Contrast, Kode9, Photek and even Elvis Costello, the guys take a crowd on a journey with everything from BoS originals and bootlegs to custom edits of cutting edge tracks and past future classics … making d&b guys admit they’ve got a soft spot for 4/4, and house lovin girls admit they miss drum n bass.
