Luke Chable is no secret any more. He is one of the biggest names in production in Melbourne, and it's clearly obvious to see why. He has well over 20 productions to his name - this at the age of 22. Not a normal feat for one so young, but Luke is not just any producer. Work under the guises Quest, Dark Alley (with Ivan Gough & Phil K), ACL (with Austin Leeds & Martin Accorsi) Digital Mind Control (with Ivan Gough) and Lostep (with Phil K), has seen this young man put his foot firmly into the record collections of many DJ's worldwide.

We caught up with Luke to uncover the reasons why he has become such a prominant figure in Melbourne's dance scene.

To those unaware of your work - how would you describe the Luke Chable sound?
There is no particular sound, yet, having said that... Always musical, progressive house and breaks that make you move – Emotion and Groove to tickle your senses and re-educate your mood.

Having achieved so much at such a relatively young age, what more do you wish to achieve?
As much as there is to achieve. And more! I’m looking at the top and beyond that. I’m not only going to stay firmly put in dance music for the next twenty years, film scores and full length twisted ambient journeys are on the cards for the future may even be a bit 'o' good old aussie grunge in there too!

Are there any producers you would like to work with?
Timo Maas and his crew, James Holden, Satoshi Tommie, Sasha - hehehe ;) Working with any of these guys would be quite a different experience, learning from a different perspective is always interesting.

What are your opinions on the state of Australian House/ Progressive House?
We are comfortably moving up the ladder at the moment, in some people’s eyes - at the top. Most Australian progressive is pushing the envelope, and driving the sound into different areas that it hasn't been before, and bringing back the emotion to the music.

What influence have guys like Phil K, Ivan Gough, Austin Leeds etc had on your production work?
All of them have had a great impact on the way i work, and especially have had a hand in extending the boundaries of my work, which has created more diversity in my production over the years. Working with Phil & Ivan is always a laugh. If you walked in the room in the middle of it you would think we are quite loony.

What are your favourite albums and mix cd's?
Northern Exposure 1 & 2. Tangerine Dream - Force Majeure. Frank Zappa - Lumpy Gravy. Digweed GU Hong Kong... hmmm not many others floating my boat ooh yeah, ++ The Streets - Original Pirate Material. Wicked!

Outside the studio - what do you like to get up with in your spare time?
Uhhhh ... make music? heheheh Go Clubbing, meet up with friends, annoy my manager with the latest mouth made sound effects, and play star wars leggo with my little bro's.
