Luke Bonaro Brings Magic Back To Morior Invictus
Luke Bonaro: “I seek structure in a track just like an architect who seeks structure in a building”
Morior Invictus Recordings recently released “A Magic Story” by Luke Bonaro. The executives at Morior Invictus confirmed that they were really impressed with uniqueness of the track and moved ahead with signing the Italian.
Talking about his early years, Luke, an Italian, a Milan native says – “I started to listen house music very soon, i was just 12, my first time in a disco here in Milan changed my conception of house music, it was so powerful and mesmerizing!! I started to produce house music when I was 16;there was already a lot of possibility to produce with a simple pc in bedroom. I didn’t have much money to buy equipment but I was believed in myself and thought – why can’t a creative person realize his dream just because he has no money? At start I tried each genre but once I hit 128- 130 bpm, I always knew I was going to stick to it after that. For me, it was neither too slow nor too fast, just perfect. I knew Sound cloud was free, so started uploading my tracks one by one 3 years ago and listened to the reviews carefully, that really helped me create something unique. I don’t only think of House music as commercial, I think there’s more to it, it can give emotions like a pianist gets on his piano or like a vocalist during his performance.”
He continues – ‘I think that in house music, words are not necessary, everyone can have there own interpretation, when I do a new track maybe there are lyrics, may be not. I just want that the melody to involve who listens, I seek structure in a track just like an architect who seeks structure in a building and when I finish, I can say, “ok, here nothing is missing”. I don’t like repetition, I keep trying to do something different with each track I make’.
Talking about his tastes in music, he speaks – “My favorite artists in this genre are Richie hawtin, deadmau5, tiesto, Armin Van buuren, but I don’t keep a limit to what I listen to, in fact I listen also to classical music, I think it is the mother of all kinds of music; and then I also listen to the hungry and the angry of 80′-90′ hip-hop, I love the brutality of rock, one of my favorite band was Nirvana with their “dirty” but grunge”.

British duo Duke & Jones are back with another House release that speaks for itself in the form of “Program,” a minimal percussive track with multi-genre influences. Opening with a strong dose of kick drums and a chopped soul vocal riff that continues for its entire duration, the new single also brings in grungy basslines and tribal instrumental aspects. With a lot of groovy and rhythmic elements, “Program” places its focus solely on the house beats, making it feel like you’ve stepped into a dark, secret warehouse rave. Duke & Jones had a viral hit in the form of “Jiggle Jiggle” with Louis Theroux, but are now back to their first love in producing house music. Read on for their inspiration behind the new track.
“For as long as we’ve been producing, we’ve always loved to make super minimal, percussion-led drops. ‘Program’ takes this classic Duke & Jones aesthetic and spins it into a warehouse-flavored house tune, built around soul vocal chops and West African talking drum samples.” — Duke & Jones
Duke & Jones have always been destined to be the “producer’s producer,” having been friends their entire lives and producing since the young age of 12. Their philosophy has always been to let the music speak for itself; they don’t need record labels or huge co-signs to make an impact in the scene–in fact, they were the first musical act to release an EP on OnlyFans, where they received homepage placement and full social support for comic ASMR edits. The duo is adept at working social media to their advantage; their TikTok series has become a global sensation, and their Youtube channel is full of hilarious content. Last year, their viral hit “Jiggle Jiggle” with Louis Theroux, which started as yet another joke, earned them a number 49 spot on the Billboard Emerging Artists Chart. The track also became an emote on Fortnite and was shared by Megan Thee Stallion, Shakira, Jimmy Fallon, ROSÉ (from Blackpink), Snoop Dogg, Anthony Hopkins, Rita Ora, Coldplay, and more. With an array of talent that goes beyond just producing music, Duke & Jones are certainly ones to watch.
