Linus Loves is a Scottish dance music group and remix/production musical ensemble. The group originally consisted of DJs and producers Duncan Reid and Kevin McKay, after they co-founded Breastfed Recordings together in 2002 with Myles MacInnes. McKay left the outfit in 2005, and Reid has continued using the moniker until the present day.
The outfit is best known for their 2003 hit single, "Stand Back", with vocals by Sam Obernik. It was a cover version of the 1983 Stevie Nicks' song. The track peaked at #31 in the UK Singles Chart in November 2003.[1]
Reid has since become an in-demand remixer working on songs for various artists including Britney Spears, Kelis, Mika, Jamiroquai and Scissor Sisters.
