Saturday, 13th December 2003 at 11:02 am / Words: Andrei Rusu

The eponymous Renaissance series re-launches with Argentina's most wanted DJ - Hernan Cattaneo, making his 'Masters' debut, following Nick Warren, Deep Dish, Danny Howells and Sander Kleinenberg.

From its conception back in 2000, the Masters series has always showcased some of the world's finest DJ talent, a fact which Hernan is aware of, "I've always been a big fan of the Renaissance CDs, from those early Sasha and Digweed mixes through to the likes of Danny Howells, Deep Dish and, most recently, Sander Kleinenberg. It feels really good to be part of that now." On the subject of the album, Hernan says, "My mix will be a reflection of the music I play, which includes a little bit of everything, from house to techno to breaks, featuring producers from as far afield as Germany, Greece and Argentina (naturally!)."

The compilation contains two discs and will feature new tracks by Alexander Kowalski, Danny Howells, Stef Vrolijk, Chab, Luke Chable, Matthew Dekay and Hernan's new track 'Behind the Music' along with his remix of 'Morgan Page/All I Know'. Here's the full tracklistings:
