CD: Renaissance Presents 3D
by: Faithless
I am a FAITHLESS fan from way back, those who sat through any of the TOLLS services that I dj’ed through would be familiar with my use of their remixes and tunes, I recently purchased their “Best Of” dvd with some of the most fantastic clips to an equally impressive collection of tunes, songs like “God is a DJ” and “Mass Destruction” and “We Come One” are absolute classics and carry with them a depth and understanding that I think is still rare today. Maxi Jazz is an absolute genius, as is Sister Bliss and Rolo who, in this collection of 3 cds have pieced together an awesome collection of tunes for people to listen to anywhere.
The collection of songs and remixes have been organised into “songs for the Club” “songs for Home” and “remixes and rarities of their own tracks.” If you’re expecting the entire cd to be filled with their own remixes you’d be mistaken and possibly a little dissapointed, however if you are expecting 3 absolutely packed cds that have been expertly mixed together by the crew then you’ll be as impressed as I was, this is a beautiful mix of tunes and collaborations. The cd of their own tracks is great to listen to, but my favourite disk out of the three have been their selection of tunes for the “home” which has been on loop at my house for the last few days.
This is a remarkable and beautiful and inspired mix of tracks that has made an impressive and special release.
