Lefto Early Bird is a DJ and electronic music producer from Brussels, Belgium.

Becoming a household name at Kiosk Radio, as well as mainstay station Studio Brussel, LeFtO he works with music from a hearty range of genres: everything from house to rap to jazz and more. Fusing sounds from Belgium's melting pot of musical talent with his relentless passion for new sounds, LeFtO has gone on to work with major names and labels including Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood Recordings, Blue Note, BBE, Universal Music, SDBAN and many more.

Cutting his teeth on jazz and new beat, a genre that moulded the shape of electronic music in 80s Belgium, LeFtO formed his early tastemaker know-how via his dad's record collection. “My father mostly played jazz at home, he had a serious collection which I still own myself. I was probably 14 years old when I asked him for money to buy some records,” he says. “With a certain pride, most of what I liked was made in Belgium”. More a selector than anything else, LeFtO continues Belgium’s tireless musical legacy through his extensive palate, brimming with flavour. Read more on Last.fm.
