LUXO RETURNS TO CID’S NIGHT SERVICE ONLY WITH DANCEFLOOR CUT ‘BACK THE FUNK’

Luxo is back on CID’s imprint Night Service Only with a track that means business. Titled Back The Funk, it’s a stripped-down, groove-loaded tech house weapon designed for the club. Anchored by punchy percussion and a bassline that doesn’t let up, the track cuts through with a cheeky vocal that demands your attention, and gets it. This one’s for the heads who like it raw, rhythmic, and relentless.

FROM PORTLAND TO THE BOOTHS OF AMERICA

Operating under the Luxo alias since 2014, Daniel Nish has quietly built a solid reputation in the U.S. underground. Based in Portland with a residency at 45 East, his sets have taken him across the country - from Miami to LA, with a sound that finds balance between groove, grit, and groove-led simplicity. Releases on Hood Politics, North of Neptune, and now multiple drops on NSO, point to an artist with a clear understanding of what works in a club, and why.

BACKED BY THE RIGHT NAMES

There’s been no shortage of support behind this one - MK, Firebeatz, NOME., and label boss CID have all been rinsing it. But beyond co-signs, what makes "Back The Funk" stick is how dialed-in it is. It doesn’t chase trends - it just works. With more releases scheduled for 2025 and continued backing from names like James Hype, SIDEPIECE, and Tchami, Luxo is proving that staying in your lane, when it’s this well-defined, can be a serious advantage.
