DJ Luck & MC Neat are a British musical duo, composed of Joel Samuels (a.k.a. DJ Luck) and Michael Rose (a.k.a. MC Neat) mainly performing a combination of house music and UK garage. They had three consecutive top 10 hits in the United Kingdom from 1999 to 2000.[1]

Career

They are primarily known for their 1999 single "A Little Bit of Luck", which started as a promotional dubplate, released at the price of £5.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". The track peaked at No. 9 in the United Kingdom in January 2000.[1] In the same year they released a cover of "Master Blaster (Jammin)" by Stevie Wonder, retitled "Masterblaster 2000", which featured the vocals of JJ, who is on a number of Luck & Neat's songs. The track was their highest British chart entry, reaching No. 5 in June 2000. Their version of Ollie & Jerry's "Breakin'... There's No Stopping Us", retitled as "Ain't No Stoppin' Us", reached No. 8 in October that year.[1] The duo also made an appearance on Top of the Pops, performing their UK No. 12 track "Piano Loco".

After the initial three chart hits they enjoyed, the majority of their work, along with their debut album, was produced along with, or by, the underground musician Shy Cookie, who was responsible for the shift in their music from being sample-based to using programmed (original) and live instruments, helping them to maintain underground credibility that in turn helped fuel their mainstream success.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

By 2002, they were billed more simply as Luck & Neat.[1]
