About

There are a few reasons Sasha & John Digweed’s <i>Renaissance: The Mix Collection</i> has come to be regarded as one of—if not <i>the</i>—most important mixes in UK dance music history. Originally released on three CDs in October 1994, the selection of tracks is impeccable, a series of cuts and remixes that have calcified as club classics over the years. And it’s technically dazzling: a this-is-how-it’s-done blueprint for mixes that features the UK DJ duo in artful and butter-smooth form as they slip each track into the next, replicating the emotional tides and currents of their residency at Renaissance in Derby. More than that though, <i>Renaissance: The Mix Collection</i> is a vital artefact in the history of UK club culture—a three-hours-plus document of dance music diversifying and innovating during the early ’90s as it sprouted from the underground to take its latest grip on the mainstream. This third and final part of the mix finds the party reaching its peak. Sasha and Digweed maintain a trance-y and progressive air over proceedings but demand even more hands in the air via Jasper Hobson’s Night Time Mix of Moby’s “Go,” D:Ream’s remix of EMF’s “They’re Here,” and Underworld’s “Dirty.”
