“2020 has been such a frustrating year for all of us in the music and entertainment industry. We kept on releasing music while most of us on this planet were not allowed to dance and enjoy live music because of the pandemic. It is very painful to release Dance music when you can’t share it behind the decks and have a party going with crazy people in front of you. Releasing this compilation is a way to celebrate the great evolution of our label in this very specific context. It is also a message of hope and faith in the music we do love and support.”

The Tom Pooks mix is currently available to stream/download via Soundcloud.
