S&S Records, Inc. (and S&S Chicago, Inc.) was established by 4-time GRAMMY® nominated producer and House Music pioneer Steve "Silk" Hurley and global DJ/Producer Shannon "DJ Skip" Syas. Silk and Skip merged Hurley's worldwide commercial success and Syas' strong global following to form S&S Records. S&S Records has accumulated a catalog of new and classic hit records from global artists all over.

S&S is now presenting a collection of digitally remastered original versions of classic tunes, hand-picked from Hurley’s Silk Entertainment label. The full collection will include the releases of all 4 Silk labels, including ID Records, DJ World Records, and of course, Silk Entertainment Records, which has releases spanning all 4 decades.
