  3. Le Youth

    3. He describes his musical style as: "90's sounds refracted through a thoroughly modern aesthetic."

    In full and in his own words, this is what you can expect from Le Youth's music: "Tracks that are serious about moving a dance floor full of people without coming on too strong. Breezy California vibes touched by a twist of European flair and an air of mystery."

  4. Le Youth

    4. Le Youth's debut single was called 'C O O L'.

    C O O L, which sampled Cassie Ventura's Me & U, was picked up by Ultra Records and released in July 2013 after rapidly received over 200,000 plays on Soundcloud in a short period of time. It debuted what has swiftly become Le Youth's signature style. Picture: Facebook

    5. If you haven't heard Le Youth's song Dance With Me yet, where have you been?

    Le Youth hooked up with up and coming American rapper Dominique Young Unique who provided vocals on his latest track Dance With Me. The song samples that famous line 'If you live at home with your muma' from TLC's No Scrubs and is an absolute tune.

    6. Le Youth is fast becoming the King Of The Remix.

    He put his own spin on Disclosure and Sasha Keable's 2013 hit Voices and more recently Sam Smith's debut single Money On My Mind. Both have leisurely grooves but wouldn't be out of place on the dancefloor. Picture: Facebook
