Luude

Luude, born Christian Benson in Perth, Australia, is a dynamic producer and DJ known for fusing drum & bass, breakbeat, and electronic music with an infectious, high-energy style. Emerging on the scene in the late 2010s, Luude initially garnered attention with innovative remixes and genre-defying tracks that quickly found favor within Australia’s thriving dance music community. His breakout moment arrived with the viral success of his drum & bass rework of Men At Work’s “Down Under,” featuring Colin Hay, which not only climbed the charts in Australia and the UK but also solidified his reputation as a fearless sonic innovator.

Luude’s subsequent releases have demonstrated his versatility, blending heavy basslines and nostalgic samples with crisp, modern production, earning him festival slots at major global events like Tomorrowland and Creamfields. Beyond his solo work, Luude is a founding member of the Australian electronic collective Choomba and frequently collaborates with artists across genres, continually pushing the boundaries of contemporary dance music while staying rooted in his distinctive Australian identity.
