About Duke Dumont:

Hailing from London, Duke Dumont was initially born deaf. With corrective surgery, it inadvertently shaped the way he interprets sounds, with tone and timbre taking precedence over words & lyrics. Since then, Duke has proved that his cleverly crafted productions either become chart hits or infectious club records, boasting millions of plays across the globe.

Now splitting his time between Los Angeles and the UK, Duke's locations of the Hollywood Hills and English countryside help keep him isolated in order to concentrate on studying his craft. Topping the billing on various stages worldwide, Duke's audience is both defined and refined, with his DJ career starting in London, learning his craft at iconic institutions such as Fabric.

He has since branched out to numerous residences in Ibiza (Amnesia & Sankeys) where Duke shares his philosophy; "The goal isn't for record sales, or attention-grabbing tactics. It's for how long my music can strike a chord with people by producing records with longevity."
