Gaskin Shares His Path Through House Music and a Pumping Summer Mix

In just a few years, Gaskin has had a huge impact on the European House scene, especially in the local Newcastle scene with his own Bass Jamz events.

Luke Gaskin, better known as Gaskin, has been an artist dominating the European house scene for the last few years. Born near Newcastle, he spent many summers in Ibiza and was exposed to Patrick Topping and Jamie Jones‘ Hot Creations as that label began its rise. These experiences led to 2020, when Gaskin launched his label and event brand Bass Jamz and began throwing parties in the UK.

“I remember seeing [Hot Creations] for the first time, instantly falling in love with the music and the way they were a big family, and thinking, ‘I want to do that one day,'” Gaskin shared. “That’s what it’s all about with Bass Jamz: one big family of like-minded people who have come together and created our sound and community.”

Now, nearly 10 years later, he’s released music with Chris Stussy’s Up The Stuss, EastEndDubs’s Eastenderz, and Solid Grooves, among many others. Bass Jamz has also evolved from just an event brand into a record label, releasing not only Gaskin’s music but others’ as well, including Archie Hamilton, Locklead, and Robbie Doherty.

Solid Grooves became home to “Get Ya Freak On,” one of Gaskin’s biggest tracks lately, sharing that he always wanted to make a track like that after being inspired by the rolling tech house style. “When I did my first season in Ibiza in 2018, it was when Solid Grooves did their first summer at Vista Club, Privilege,” he said. “It was my favourite brand at the time and I remember thinking, ‘One day I need to make a track like this.'”

It’s safe to say that Gaskin is crushing it right now and has no plans on slowing his rise in the scene anytime soon. He shared that he’s working on something “really exciting” with Patrick Topping that’s set to land on a dream label for him in the second half of the year, so fans should stay tuned for that surprise to drop. He also gifted us with an exclusive mix for our Summer Sessions series that features some of his favorite tracks right now for a small taste of what’s in store from his upcoming sets.

I always like to give 100% in every set and make sure the energy is there, so I hope everyone leaves with the idea that they want to travel to other places to see me and Bass Jamz.
