Loöq Records is celebrating its 100th release with this massive package of remixes of the progressive house classic "We Are Connected" by label founders Jondi & Spesh. Born out of the West Coast sound, the original 1997 release remained relatively under wraps until John Digweed came across a copy and began using it as a secret weapon in sets everywhere, eventually including it on an iconic Radio One Essential Mix (that same mix would also be used in it's entirety on the John Digweed mixed CD "Bedrock"). Re-release on UK labels Bedrock and Dorigen soon followed, as well as a critically acclaimed full length Jondi & Spesh album of the same title, and a classic was born. This superb collection of remixes does what Loöq Records as a whole has done so well for so many years - mix up and coming talent with established artists in pursuit of its mission of entertaining people with the freshest sounding electronic music.

Jondi & Spesh "We Are Connected" (Methodrone Remix)

The Methodrone sound is wide ranging, everything from textured ambient soundscapes to energetic dance floor escapes. Refusing to be defined by any specific musical genre, Methodrone has built a catalog incorporating sounds, rhythms and influences from across the musical spectrum. It’s primary contributors, Kramer and Scott G, have diverse musical backgrounds that have helped guide Methodrone’s direction into a space that is not entirely electronic nor organic.  It is this blend of ideas that has helped Methodrone create a space all their own across the musical landscape.

Releasing a series of albums and singles with San Francisco based Looq Records, 
the music of Methodrone has sparked unique partnerships with seasoned musicians such as Grammy winning bassist Bernie Minoso and guitarist Jerry Fuentes. These types of collaborations have helped Methodrone create a unique and layered sound transcending the typical electronic music space.  At the same time, they have also worked with established dance music producers such as Royal Sapien (Bedrock) and Jason Randolph (Baroque, Sony) to produce solid dance floor-ready remixes. This ability to connect music across a spectrum of genres has allowed Methodrone’s work to find its way into international TV shows (CSI: New York), video games (WRC2), interactive projects (Intel, Jaguar-Land Rover), commercial use (ECOtality), compilation CDs and of course the dance floor.

Methodrone will once again showcase their innovative work with their third album Spacial Recognition early 2013 in addition to several upcoming remix projects.
