Matt Lyon
Matt is no stranger to the underground electronic music scene. From an early age he was blasting beats from his bedroom studio before branching out into all night raves and intimate venue gigs. With a lack of decent club nights in the Highlands, Matt has travelled the UK and Europe in search of new and exciting Techno inspiration. Now, after teaming up with likeminded DJs Findlay Hart and Lucas Manning, “RuckusRave” is ready to bring fresh new underground music to clubbers in the Highlands as an alternative to commercial clubs and tunes. Matt says “It’s all about the music, the people and the atmosphere”
Influences: John Digweed, Elay Lazutkin , Eric Prydz, Deadmau5, Clouds to name a few
Lucas Manning
Lucas grew up in the Bahamas in a prestigious recording studio so was instantly immersed in music culture. On arriving in Scotland he very quickly got into the electronic music scene. Inspired by the likes of Porter Robinson and Zedd, he endeavored to get involved in DJing. When Lucas teamed up with Findlay and Matt he knew they were the best friends that anyone could have and a Ruckus was about to go down.
Influences: Dillon Francis, Knife Party, Deadmau5
Findlay Hart
Findlay loves his dance music. Electro, Trance, Fidget, Techno, House, Minimal you name it! He was inspired to start spinning records after the epic performance Afrojack and Pete Tong put on at Ocean Terminal, Edinburgh. Findlay hopes to be playing gigs far and wide and thinks it would be a great lifestyle – traveling around gigs and festivals meeting similarly minded people and generally having a big Ruckus. He is traveling to Australia this summer hoping to hit up some big clubs in the Gold Coast and maybe even get a set. “See you at the next Ruckus!”
Influences: Afrojack, Wess, Ton!c, Joseph Macmillan, DJ B3lnd and Mark Faterson.
