Atmospheric, inspired and easy on the ear. Bukem has an ear for perfection. LTJ Bukem is ah rude bwai! ruff!

[edit] His moniker...

Amen to the comment above, his music is almost divine. But I have a question about LTJ Bukem, what's the story behind his moniker? I remember reading under his entry on allmusic.com [1] that he decided to call himself LTJ Bukem after the TV series Hawaii Five-0, using the name Bukem as a corruption of sorts from the series' famous catchphrase "book'em Danno". Is this true, because it does seem a bit silly, IMHO... misternuvistor 22:37, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

A bit more on this. The article says "Logical Progression (released under the name LT Bukem)". My copy of Logical Progression quite clearly says LTJ Bukem, and I got mine shortly after it was released. Citation needed, I reckon. headlessness 18:55, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

I always heard it was the French calling him "Le DJ Book em", not the Spanish.. :dunno: --Frantik 11:08, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

I thought I read somewhere online that it stood for Le Tourne-discs Jockey...

It definitely relates to 'book'e Danno' as that appears quite alot in his DJ set's by several different MC's. I don't think that is a coincidence. I've got one from 88 that says this. --87.75.28.66 (talk) 17:12, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

unrelated, but in #dnbradio - ltj was translated with light the joint Mogguh (talk) 00:40, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Any update?

This article seems to be somewhat outdated. Are there any recent events worthy of noting on this article? What has this guy been up to since 2001 (the last referenced date in the article)?

Last I heard he has retired to concentrate on his pottery. Can anyone confirm? --87.75.28.66 (talk) 16:12, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
