Who Is Duke Dumont?
Adam Dyment (born 27 August 1982), better known by his stage name Duke Dumont, is a British DJ and music producer. He is best known for his number one hit "Need U (100%)" featuring A*M*E. He owns the record label Blasé Boys Club and has also used it as an alias for production. He has remixed a number of songs, including several which have charted in the United Kingdom.

Duke's early career was mentored by Switch (who has produced for Beyonce/ M.I.A. / Santigold) and he made his name remixing pop songs, including Lily Allen's 'The Fear', Mystery Jets' 'Two Doors Down' and Bat For Lashes' 'Daniel'.

In March 2007 he released his first EP, the 'Regality EP' for Turbo Recordings which was followed in August 2008 by The Dominion Dubs EP on Dubsided. Duke mixed the 2010 'FabricLive.51' compilation album for London nightclub Fabric.

In 2011 he moved out of London to the Hertfordshire countryside (where his studio overlooks a forest) to focus on original material.

In 2012, Duke released two EPs on Tiga's Turbo Recordings, 'For Club Play Only Vol. 1' & 'Vol. 2', which were played on radio by Annie Mac & Fearne Cotton on BBC Radio 1, and Trevor Nelson on BBC Radio 1Xtra(source). In the same year he remixed AlunaGeorge's 'Your Drums, Your Love' and Santigold's 'The Keepers'.

On 31 March 2013, Dumont released the single "Need U (100%)". The song features vocals from Sierra Leonean-born British singer-songwriter A*M*E. The song has topped the UK Singles Chart, and also charted in Belgium and the Netherlands. The official music video, directed by Ian Robertson, has over six million YouTube views.

On 1 July 2013 Pitchfork premiered Duke Dumont's new album track "Hold On", featuring vocals from soul/R&B singer MNEK.

On 6 December 2013, Annie Mac premiered Dumont's next official single "I Got U" featuring Jax Jones. It will be released as the second single from his forthcoming debut album in 2014.
