About this episode
Luke Una reflects on his four decades in Manchester's underground music scene and the importance of community and dancefloors.
Luke Una has spent four decades at the heart of Manchester's underground music scene. In this episode, the co-founder of Electric Chair and founder of Homoelectric and Homobloc looks back on the clubs, record shops and communities that shaped him, from discovering house music in Sheffield to helping define Manchester's nightlife. He explains why reading a dancefloor matters more than technical ability, how eclectic music built Electric Chair's identity, and why creating spaces where people feel they belong has always been more important than chasing commercial success. Luke also reflects on sobriety, ADHD, creativity, the changing culture of clubbing, and why he believes young people are rediscovering the magic of dancefloors in an increasingly divided world.
