Skinner & Hoopz deliver powerful, uplifting, and euphoric Hard Dance that ignites dancefloors across the UK and beyond. Friends since 2002, their shared passion for Hard Dance began with humble SoundLab belt-drive turntables, sparking a journey that has taken them from underground clubs to the biggest stages in the scene.

Skinner was first drawn into dance music in 1994, discovering The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Josh Wink, CJ Bolland, and Orbital through his sister. Immersed in rave culture, he explored Hardcore, Drum & Bass, House, and Trance before going on to promote his own legendary events, Summit and Summit Above 160, which showcased Hard Trance, Hard House, and Hardcore at venues such as Soundshaft, Hidden, The Mass, and The Lightbox.

Hoopz’s rise began in 2006, when his energetic style quickly made him a crowd favourite. After connecting with Hard Dance pioneer Kevin Energy, he was invited into the Nu Energy Collective and held a four-year residency at the iconic Freeformation events. Hoopz went on to perform nationwide, from Brighton to Liverpool, and made his mark in the studio with tracks such as Definitions, Live For The Moment (with K Complex), and the anthem Illuzionise.

Together, Skinner & Hoopz have played nearly every major Hard Dance event in the UK, including Global Gathering, Frantic, Polysexual, Heat, Hard South and more, earning a reputation for high-energy performances and euphoric storytelling behind the decks. Their productions have continued that legacy, with standout releases like Whatever and Try, alongside remixes of Malice in Wonderland and Push’s classic Strange World, which shook Frantic’s 26th Birthday. Their productions are continuing that legacy with Try and Whatever released on Emanating Records, alongside remixes of Malice in Wonderland and Push’s classic Strange World, which shook Frantic’s 26th Birthday.  They are really burning it up in the studio. They also have 2 forthcoming releases to note their remix of Yellow Six – Forest Fire on Positive State, and the release of Touch Me on Tidy Two.

2025 has already been a standout year, with the duo rocking stages across the country smashing Weekend in the Woods, and being announced as residents for Hard Hush in Brighton. They are supported by scene legends including Rob Tissera, Kevin Energy, Lisa Pin Up, and the Tidy Boys.

Skinner & Hoopz are pushing forward with fresh new productions, uniting powerful basslines, euphoric breakdowns, and unforgettable vocals that guarantee to fill the floor — the duo are ready to bring a fresh wave of energy to the Hard Trance scene.

Found my passion for dance music around 1994 when my sister introduced me to artists like The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Josh Wink, CJ Bolland and Orbital.
From here i started my journey through the rave culture and was pretty much in to all styles of Hardcore, Drum N Bass, House and Trance.

Finally in the year 1998 i got my hands on my first set of turntables the Soundlab belt drives, which im pretty sure every Dj stared with back then. Mainly mixing Drum & Bass and Garage i went on and started my journey as a Dj in my local clubs/bars around the Surrey area.

The year 2000 started a new phase for me when my friends dragged me along to Peach at Camden Palace, i was always into Trance music but from this moment i knew this was now the direction i wanted to take but focusing more on the Harder styles of Trance and around 2005 we decided to start our own nights called Summit and Summit Above 160 which hosted some amazing Hard Trance/House and Hardcore parties at clubs such as Soundshaft, Hidden, Club Life, The Mass and The Light box.

As a Dj i was blessed with bookings for events such as Heat, Frantic, Hardhouse academy, WildChild, Judgement Sundays, Raindance and Epidemic  just to name a few.

For me now it’s all about breaking the Trance scene. Exciting times ahead so keep checking back for updated tracks and Dj mixes.

Thank you for stopping by :-)
