Renaissance: The Masters Series Hernan Cattaneo – Parallel

Hernan Cattaneo presents another exciting chapter in the Renaissance Masters Series with a brand new approach…

“I felt it was time we took a fresh direction,” says Hernan, “But, although it was always going to be alternate, I wasn’t sure just what this direction should be. So, I locked myself away and started going through loads of music for inspiration. It wasn’t till…

Spooky - Little Bullet

Spooky – Little Bullet

Spooky return to Renaissance with a brand new, updated version of their famed classic…

First released in 1993 on William Orbits legendary Guerrilla imprint, ‘Little Bullet’ is arguably one of the defining tracks of its generation; it’s influence and status has grown year on year as it continues to remain a fond favourite of DJs and clubbers alike. And it’s this enduring appeal that influenced Charlie May and Duncan Forbes to revisit the tune, albeit with initial trepidation as Charlie honestly admits, “We weren’t sure whether to re-work Bullet. Some things are best left alone.”

“However,” says Duncan picking up…

Renaissance Cable residence returns March 27th…

Renaissance touch back down at their new London home for a Spring extravaganza that takes in talent from the opposite ends of our spectrum – the return of a long-standing favourite and the London debut (for us) of a highly-respected, fast-rising genius…

Zabiela the Great! Free album for every gig goer!

In these challenging, yet exciting times, media visionaries have developed dynamic ways of delivering music away from the traditional methods; Radiohead’s recent digital download scheme of ‘pay what you want’ for their ‘In Rainbows’ album is probably the best and most famous example to date. Now James and Renaissance continue this trend as they release the ‘Masters Series’ with a dynamic, unique approach that’s primed to change the face of current compilations…

So what is it?
James is embarking on a headlining world tour from March 2010 to coincide with the album, at the club shows the compilation will…

Deadmau5 guilty of Plagiarism?

Deadmau5 guilty of Plagiarism?

Hello!

I’ll leave it entirely to your discretion, whether this can be considered a publishing-worthy news item. It’s why the subject is complemented with a question mark. The text isn’t probably ready for print as such either. Sorry about that.
