One of the UK's largest
progressive labels, releasing numerous #1 records to the world. Its
changing styles throughout the years did much to guide the tastes of
DJ's and dancefloors around the world. Probably best known for

which remains a dancefloor classic. It specialized in progressive house
and progressive trance, although later releases dabbled in breaks, deep
house, electro and ambient flavors.
After more than 10 years Hooj
Choons have proved to be one of the more influential labels that has
pushed the progressive genre into bigger and better places. Veterens in
the Industry, Hooj has been behind some classic releases in the last
decade, notceably from legend producer Oliver Lieb, Energy 52, Medway
and Tilt just to name a few.
