Best described as a live organic dance band, Loonaloop’s music is an excursion into the various styles and genres of modern electronic music, drawing on influences ranging from dub, drum & bass, tribal trance, and gypsy/tribal house. Loonaloop are well renowned for their intoxicating high energy performance.
