LIGHTLEAK is one of Orange County's clearest minimal and deep tech success stories. Raised in Laguna Beach, he built a sound out of rolling basslines, soulful vocal cuts, and the kind of stripped-back groove that fills a room without ever shouting. After catching the ear of tastemakers across the minimal scene, he made the bold move overseas to immerse himself in the European circuit — and in 2025 his debut EP "Shelter" landed on Hottrax, the London label founded by Jamie Jones, and shot to number one on Beatport's house chart. KEEPITIL features LIGHTLEAK as a SoCal-raised artist taking the local sound global.
