Description
For Chris Lake, making people dance is more than a career: It’s an obsession. Over two decades,the GRAMMY®-nominated artist has become one of house music’s most compelling figures. Inthat time he’s lived many lives as a producer, DJ, and label head, all connected by his ability tocreate big moments both onstage and in his music. Since breaking through with a string of No. 1singles in the late 2000s, Lake has helped redefine America’s house music scene in thepost-EDM age. His music is a regular fixture on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart,including recent hits “Summertime Blues,” “Beggin’,” and “More Baby.” He has headlined EDCLas Vegas and Coachella stages, shut down Hollywood Boulevard for over 12,000 fans, andspread the dance floor gospel through his Under Construction events with FISHER. AlongsideDJing and producing, Lake is the founder of Black Book Records, which has helped elevate risingtalent such as Cloonee, Miane, and Mochakk. The label’s reach is also expanding through eventslike Black Book On The Pier and an exclusive MNTGE fashion collaboration. Perhaps more thansimply making people dance, Lake leaves dance music’s people and culture better than he foundit. “It gives me this increased love of the power of a single song and the effect that it can haveon anyone's life,” he says. “I love the idea that I can make a song and give people that feeling.It's just amazing, and I feel like as the years go on, I get better and better at doing it.”
