Renaissance has had a bigger part than most in the advancement of the mix compilation. Back when they began in 1992 ‘commercially available’ mixes mainly consisted of poorly recorded tapes sold from behind the counter at record shops, but things soon changed. In 1994 they released the first ever ‘The Mix Collection’ (selected and mixed by [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/URL] and [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=2"]John Digweed[/URL]), pioneering the ‘mix cd’ in the process. Listen to the promo mix on the full post

Now as they celebrate their twentieth year of activity they end 2012 on a bang with a flurry of compilations. The first is the seventh delivered by South American legend [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=3"]Hernan Cattaneo[/URL], an artist who has become synonymous with the meticulous manifesto of melody that defines Renaissance’s. Constantly pushing forward, Hernan routinely delivers mesmerizingly mixed collections that soar throughout the full canon of House and Techno, dreamily imagined collages of sound. The first disc shuffles between deep house and off kilter electronic grooves, boasting productions from the likes of [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=94"]Guy J[/URL], [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=140"]Ripperton[/URL], [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=238"]Guy Gerber[/URL] and [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=112"]Martin Garcia[/URL]. Highlights include the subtle piano led electronics of diskJokke’s stunning re-interpretation of Comphunoic’s ‘Sequoia’ or the masterful ‘Ventura’ by Hal Incadenza; an alias for exciting Spanish DJ [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=500"]Henry Saiz[/URL]. The latter has been edited by Hernan specifically for the collection and is the final one of eight personal remixes/productions that features on the mix. The second selection sees Hernan notching up the energy levels and heading into more driving territory. Guy Gerber’s haunting take on the [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=498"]Cevin Fisher[/URL] and Layo & Bushwacka collaboration ‘Dancing in the Dark’ is an early pace-setter, whilst the stirring melodies of the Microtrauma remix of Ümit Han ‘An Einem Traurigen Morgen’ also grab your attention. Again Hernan’s productions and remixes feature heavily with four on offer here before the album draws to a stunning close, the soaring synths and euphoric rush of [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=103"]Agoria[/URL] creating a jaw-dropping finale. The overall result is classic Hernan and classic Renaissance; two sumptuously mixed offerings which distil both the DJ and the brand in immaculate fashion. Better yet it works as a pointer to the global sounds that are currently dominating dancefloors, a picture perfect barometer of the electronic pulse that is making feet move the world over.

Copy and paste from Hernan's forum.

Speaking to people on my travels last weekend I found out that some only come to this part of the forum for information on Hernan so I thought it would be nice to have a thread here for this very eagerly anticipated release. !!:D

As some of you have noticed I am recommending from previous experience,
