“Seeing Luke as a producer, or, more specifically, witnessing him take his keen sense of structure, of composition, and ear for taste, to the digital realm of music was captivating.” – FestivalFootprints.com

“This is booty-shaking music.” – TheUntz.com

“Luke the Knife combines disco, funk, and indie dance with Miller’s own keyboard and guitar accompaniments, creating a unique spin on both 70’s disc and modern nu-disco. His groovy tunes and funky beats could keep you on your feet and dancing for hours, and the variety of musical genres reflected in LtK’s mixes and live performances keeps the dance party fresh and fun.” – SensibleReason.com
