Raised in the Steel City, aka the coastal, industrial Australian town of Newcastle, Loods is an understated character with a fun, raw take on dance music.

Since relocating to London in 2018, Loods has delivered a string ofhigh-impact releases across a range of labels. These include three records on longtime friend Mall Grab’s Steel City Dance Discs label, summer anthem ‘Walking Away’ on Classic Music Company (Annie Mac’s Hottest Record), a collaborative project with dance music icon A-Trak, peak-time Italo burner ‘Pure Bliss Meltdown’ (Pete Tong’s Essential New Tune), the Gummi EP on Patrick Topping’s Trick Label, and ‘Riviera’ on Club Sweat, an ode to 2000s house that heavily frequented music ID forums prior to its release.

With no sign of slowing down, Loods has a full arsenal of releases on the way, and will certainly be one to watch.
