Shiloh

Well into their first decade together as Shiloh, the Moreh brothers needed no introduction. In such a fast paced high turn-over industry Shiloh were a godfather to their era’s incarnation of the progressive dance music scene without a doubt. In fact, you’d have been hard pressed to find a progressive house DJ or artist that didn’t cite Shiloh as an inspiration and influence.

Shiloh’s rise to the top came fast and furiously with their very first single, “Will U Ever Come Around“, signed as the theme to a reality UK TV series and one of the biggest dance releases of 2003, getting hammered by Sasha and pretty much every one else for that matter. The progressive breaks genre that had taken over at that time was championed by Shiloh, and you couldn’t crack a magazine or e-article about the scene that didn’t mention that fact. 2007’s “Café Del Mariachi” by the duo was another highly notable release, one of the biggest records of that year, getting constant play from Sasha for months. “Cafe Del Mariachi” firmly entered the canon of all time great progressive house releases.

As producers Shiloh were an icon of the dance music scene. Their discography grew too numerous to keep track of, with well over 100 entries of originals, remixes, compilation appearances and video game credits. They did remixes for EMI and Global Underground, were commissioned by Jaguar Motorcars, and their music made it into a handful of Sony Playstation games. Their fans included Sasha, Paul van Dyk, Tiësto, Armin van Buuren, Hernán Cattáneo and Paul Oakenfold, who all gave heavy support, regularly playing Shiloh’s tracks for the better part of a decade. Their music was remixed by greats like Nick Warren, and their mix compilation appearances resembled a who’s who list.

Shiloh’s full length artist album “Bleed” was named DJ Mag’s “Album of the Month” receiving 5/5 stars, praised as “little short of magical” and compared to dance music legends Orbital for album track “Melt”. The praise continued with M8 Mag’s 8/8 and EQ Mag’s 5/5. “‘Bleed’ is arguably one of the most anticipated album releases in recent memory. No doubt that Shiloh with ‘Bleed’ has created an album that will earn them a place in the top of the leader board between BT, Hybrid and Way Out West. I can’t praise this album enough, the quality and the pure pleasure of listening to this album will mesmerize you.” (Clubbing Magazine)

Shiloh’s BBC Radio 1 mix on Annie Nightingale’s show (one of the most listened to radio shows in the world) went off to massive praise. Shiloh were in the highest demand as DJ’s and regularly played in all the far reaching corners of the globe, taking top billing at some of the best clubs, parties, and festivals around the world in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America, headlining to as many as 12,000 people at Russia’s DJ Parade Festival.

Shiloh’s illustrious journey through this scene wasn’t driven by marketing specialists or press juggernauts. Their success wasn’t fueled by gimmicks. In fact, one thing spearheaded their career and one thing alone… their music. It’s this fact that made Shiloh an undeniably revered treasure to all progressive-minded dance music fans, a sentiment that has withstood the test of time.

For Hunya Munya Records, Shiloh remixed Boom Jinx’s Flicker for the B side of HMR006 in 2007.
