Fast approaching its 100th release, SF based Loöq Records has been a strong voice on the international scene for over a decade. This compilation recaps an amazing year of electronic dance music on Loöq and showcases an array of talented artists from around the globe. The 2010 Loöq roster was as diverse as ever with veteran producers like Christian Cambas,  Thee-O & Huggie, along with newcomers like Issac, Churn, Kevin Knapp,  and more fresh sounds courtesy of Yellowcake, Cristian Gandini & Mike Griego, Methodrone, Royal Sapien, Art Of Hot, Von Ukuf, Paul Kieran & Native, and many, many more.  If you missed any of these tracks earlier in the year, now is your chance to get on board. And if you want more (we couldn’t fit it all on this compilation!) Beatport or any of the other digital music shops around the world will have the goods you need.

“We couldn’t be more pleased with the efforts that these artists have put in to their interpretations of s4D.  Each artist did a great job of bringing the song to life, I feel like this is a mini album that tells it’s own significant story, not a series of remixes.  Thanks to everyone!”
