Puerto Rican, Paris/Brooklyn-based Luis Aponte is perhaps best known as one of hardcore’s most influential drummers, but his virtuosic playing for beloved Philly metalcore legends Jesus Piece is only the tip of the iceberg of his many talents. Over the last few years Aponte has been shredding ear canals and rearranging internal organs from behind the decks as LU2K. He has developed a sensitivity to rhythms and patterns that allows him to suture genres together, finding common thread in unexpected places throughout his DJ sets; his liberating selections have made him a commanding presence around Europe and the USA.Recently at Paragon, Mood Ring, Bossa Nova Civic Club · often with Hyas, Pura Pura, Miley Serious, none of them here that night
