| Keith Thompson is a performer and DJ who has been in the industry for over 20 years and has for the last five years been on a productive schedule to reaffirm his place in house music history. Keith was the lead vocalist on the now classics Break 4 Love by Raze (Columbia, US/Champion, UK) in 1988. In 1989 he released the innovative "Cant Take It," coining the phrase Ragga House (Capitol records), which lead the way for further experiments in house. Subsequent house hits were "The Rhythm Of Life" (Level 10 & Underground Solution) 1983/2002, "It's On" with Scott Wozniak (Innervibe Music) 2003, "Living On The Frontline" (West Side Records) 2003, and "Africa In Your Veins" (Waking Monster) 2005.

Keith has performed in all the major clubs in NYC from the the Sound Factory to Studio 54 and has toured Japan twice and regularly performs in Europe with a new tour forthcoming including Brazil, South Africa and Europe.
