Join us on November 8th at Superior Ingredients for an exclusive night with LF SYSTEM, the Scottish duo who have rapidly risen from the depths of Edinburgh’s club scene to international acclaim. Conor Larkman and Sean Finnigan, the minds behind LF SYSTEM, are ready to elevate the Roof with their sought-after mix of disco and house music.

LF SYSTEM first made waves with their early SoundCloud edits, blending nostalgic disco with modern house, which laid the groundwork for their burgeoning career. Their breakthrough came with the single "Afraid to Feel," which sampled Silk’s 1979 hit and spun it into a UK chart-topping phenomenon, marking them as the first UK dance number one since 2020. This track not only dominated local charts but was also a staple across major radio stations, achieving extensive play on BBC Radio 1 and leading dance music platforms. Not to mention it was a summer anthem for the whole world.

Afraid To Feel

Their career trajectory took a steep climb as they transitioned from underground edits to mainstream success, resulting in official remixes for iconic figures like Fatboy Slim and Carl Cox. This recognition paved the way for performances at major venues and festivals, including their well-deserved debut at Radio 1's Big Weekend and a notable set at FLY Open Air, not to mention securing a spot on The Blessed Madonna’s watch list.

Moreover, LF SYSTEM's reach extended beyond live performances. Their work resonated on digital platforms, evidenced by their track "Dancing Cliché" which gained traction on Radio 1 and was later released through Warner Records. Their knack for creating compelling dance music has not only earned them critical acclaim but also a passionate following, ready to follow them from club nights to headline shows.
