Biography
Leo Sanderson is a DJ and producer from Manchester, UK, whose sound is rooted in ’90s house and rave, with piano, big grooves and records made to be played loud.
He built his own path. In 2022 he started After Dark, a party in Manchester that grew within months into an eight-hour summer event at Six Trees. At the same time his productions were finding an audience. Bass In The Walk was played on BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 1, and Music Is My Life passed 100,000 plays on SoundCloud; by September 2026 it had passed 630,000.
In 2025 TJADE brought him to Amsterdam for his debut at an Agrio party, and his EP Gonna Be Me came out on Agrio Tracks; by September 2026 the title track had passed 430,000 Spotify plays. He has also released on Happy Feelings Records, Amsterdam Dance Capital and Municipal. In September 2026 his house remix of Darren Fox’s Leave My Best Pal Alone, released on his own SoundCloud, took off.
