Interview: Luv4Loop

 

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque.

Today, we have the fourth interview of the week (yeah, the fourth!) - and we have another awesome person in the hot seat here at ATD - UK based garage and French house producer Luv4Loop. He's been making waves in the modern French house scene and also the UKG scene - gaining recognition from everybody at CLN (eventually becoming a member!) and even some fabled legends such as Jammin Gerald, DJ Slugo and Todd Edwards (yes, the actual GOD HIMSELF.)

Without further ado, I'll pass it over to him.

For those who don’t know you – who are you, and what music do you make?

My name is Lee, but I am known as a musician under the name of Luv4Loop! I make a few different kinds of music, my priorities are UK Garage and French House.

Who are some of your biggest inspirations musically – and how long have you been listening to them?

My number one biggest inspiration EVER, is none other than Todd Edwards. I have been listening to him since around early 2023. Another is Daft Punk, I have been listening to them for as long as i can remember.

Can you tell us the backstory behind your stage name? Why Luv4Loop?

To be fair, my stage name isn’t some perfectly crafted choice with tons of backstory, I just heard it in a video talking about Thomas Bangalter, and it really stuck. I put the 4 in it and spelled the “love” as luv, just to differentiate myself.

If you had the opportunity to collaborate with four artists of your choice – who would you pick, and why?

Four random artists… Todd Edwards - why? He seems like an incredible person to be around, let alone make music with.

Toro y Moi - I really love his style, and his vocals I feel would maybe suit one of my instrumentals, and some of his stylistic choices would be interesting to experience in a collaboration with him.

Tame Impala - He has been one of my biggest inspirations for playing guitar, and seeing his departure from rock to more of a house-esque style, I would definitely enjoy hearing what me and him would come up with.

SebastiAn - Again his style is amazing, and I am so intrigued to hear what the product of the both of our styles will be.

Random question – What’s your dream pizza?

Dream pizza? Ham and cheese, I love it man!

Another random one – what cities would you love to play in, and why?

I would love to play in my hometown, Liverpool. We have some good clubs. Another one I would like to play in is maybe New York or Paris. I don’t really know why, I just love those places.

What equipment / programs do you use to make music?

I use Ableton Live 11 Suite with a MIDI keyboard and every so often I borrow a KORG Minilogue xD.

If you went into a record store with a crap ton of money – what releases would you end up walking out with?

Daft Punk - Human After All
Toro y Moi - Causers Of This
Toro y Moi - Anything In Return
Todd Edwards - Full On Vol. 1, 2 and 3
too many Todd Edwards releases to name...
Disclosure - Settle
SebastiAn - Total
SebastiAn - A Fine Selection of Remixes

What tips would you give to aspiring garage / French house producers?

One tip I would give to aspiring producers is to keep learning. Keep listening to your favourite music, look up techniques of your favourite producers. Don’t stop!!!

Would you like to give any shoutouts to anyone?

Patrick, ZeroZed, Leo and Lewis, all the deladapt folks, all the creux la nuit guys, my family and friends, and last but certainly not least, the amazing Hackurr for interviewing me!!

There you have it, everyone!

You can find Luv4Loop on all the usual places - SoundCloud, Bandcamp, YouTube, Spotify - and you can also go to ElasticStage to buy his first album on vinyl and CD - released through Creux La Nuit - and you can also grab his self titled EP on vinyl, released through vieux temps.



As always, keep enjoying your stay at the discotheque.

Mid August drops!

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque. Today, I thought I'd do a post talking about some of the great new releases over the last week in French house, future funk and disco - there's been some super interesting and fun new cuts - so without further ado, let's get started! THAT'S MATT! - RED STATE ROMEO (THAT'S MATT ANTHEM) On August 15th, everyone's favourite disco cowboy That's Matt dropped an absolutely killer future funk single, which feels heavily inspired by Cape Coral and SebastiAn. A heavy, groovy single with some absolutely fantastic production, this track is fun, lawless in nature and super exciting, and it's packed with some great beats and dope vibes. A must buy for those into modern future funk. You can find it on all good streaming platforms now! Opierm - Forgotten What I Was Feeling Released today on his SoundCloud, Uruguayan producer Opierm's brand new single is such a beautiful piece of work. Inspired by the late 2000s work o...

Crydamoure is back (technically)

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque. For today's post, I thought I'd write about something a little bit different. Over the last nine months or so, a small group of independent producers have been making waves in the French house scene for a simple reason - they're bringing back the sound of legendary French label Crydamoure with style. If you've been living under a rock for the past few decades - or are relatively new to the French house scene - Crydamoure was the record label ran by Guy-Man (one half of legendary duo Daft Punk) and Rico Chedeville between 1997 and 2003. In it's years of operation, it quickly became one of the most respected labels of its time - releasing several EPs and singles which became classics - from fantastic artists such as DJ Sneak, Paul Johnson, Play Paul, Sedat and Archigram, alongside Rico and Guy-Man themselves, under the alias "Le Knight Club" All of the records released through Crydamoure are of the highest orde...

Interview: Ghosts of Venice

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! It's been a hot minute since there was an interview on the blog - and to make up for that, tonight we have somebody extremely special in the virtual hot seat - the incredible Ghosts of Venice. Known for his illustrious career spanning over a decade and a half - he's released on some of house music's biggest labels, produced some of the hottest tracks and remixes around, has over a billion streams under his belt - and he's also a pretty cracking DJ and promoter. With all of this in mind - I knew he had to get onto the blog! So, without further ado - I'll let him do the talking! For those who don’t know – who are you, what music do you make and where are you from?  My name is Lee Dunn, and I’ve gone by many monikers over the years, but most people know me as Ghosts of Venice. These days I mostly make Disco, and I’m from North Yorkshire, England. If you had to describe your sound to someone who’s never listened to your mu...
