Renaissance were the first to kick-start the commercial compilation market with Sasha and John Digweed’s ‘The Mix Collection’ back in 1994. Fast forward to 2007 and they are breaking new ground again with Renaissance Digital 001. They are proud to present the very first compilation available exclusively on i-tunes - meeting all stringent licensing criteria and being the equal of its physical peers.
Paolo Mojo, project launch artist says: I was surprised no one had done this yet. Making a mix compilation exclusively for the most widely used and highly visible global music store seems obvious, all credit to Renaissance for being the first to do it. For me as an artist the combination of Renaissance and i-tunes was a very attractive one and I’m proud to be launching what will be an innovative new series.
In a few years all compilations will be done this way. The only disadvantages of a physical CD are distribution and the time it can take to arrive. A compilation on i-tunes solves both these issues.
Paolo has created an intricate 80-minute mix that demonstrates why he’s currently regarded as one of the most exciting young DJs in the world. It takes in the best dance music currently on offer from the specially crafted intro of his own production ‘Paris’, via a German influenced first-half that includes Sebo K, Fuckponydelic and Repeat Repeat. He then goes on through a rousing finale featuring an incredible mash-up of Blue Foundation with Loco Dice’s ‘Seeing Thru Shadows’ and Paolo’s collaboration with man of the moment Jim Rivers. Rounding things off in fitting style, Paolo’s ‘Paris’ returns to top and tale the mix.
Renaissance Digital 01 comes out on 3rd September
