Loods
Raised in the Steel City, aka the coastal, industrial Australian town of Newcastle, Loods brings a fun, raw energy to dance music.
Since his debut in 2018, Loods has built a catalog of high-impact releases. Notable collaborations include house anthem ‘Love Is Real’ with Mall Grab, Balearic banger ‘Paradise’ with SG Lewis, late night groover ‘What Can I Do’ with A-Trak, and a French touch remix of Dom Dolla’s ‘Saving Up’.
Loods keeps one eye on the sunshine in the rearview mirror, infusing warm nostalgia into every piece of production, and another eye firmly on the horizon: With a KETTAMA collaboration just around the corner, an album on longtime label Steel City Dance Discs on the way in 2026, and nonstop global touring, Loods simply can’t slow down.
