About the Artist
Four years after his acclaimed Selected Werks debut sees Rennie Pilgrem, ‘The Most Valuable Person In Breaks’ (Breakspoll 2 years running) unleash an all-new artist album on his own TCR, the label that has the biggest, most respected catalogue of Breakbeat music in the World.
Rennie has been at the forefront of this burgeoning scene for over 10 years. Apart from his huge success in the Hardcore Rave outfit Rhythm Section, he burst into the International arena as a solo artist with the massive ‘A Place Called Acid’ under his Thursday Club guise. This legendary breaks tune is included on this album as a bonus track after Rennie re-recorded it as the title sequence for the film The Football Factory, a highly-touted forthcoming film made by the people who produced the club culture slice of life film, Human Traffic. Rennie has recently made serious waves in clubland with his remix of Zero’s ‘Emit/Collect’ (Streetwise) arguably the biggest breaks tune of 2004, winning "Remix of The Year" in Breakspoll.
Product Description
Pilgremage celebrates the rich diversity of the breakbeat genre, exploring funk, rock, techno, electro, punk and all points in between. Real instruments and musicians lift it beyond being ‘just another dancefloor album’. Rennie’s live bass is augmented by Red Snapper’s Richard Thair, Chris Carter on guitar and bass and Canadian DJ/sax sensation Spence. Rennie has also collaborated once again with fellow award-winner MC Chickaboo, angel-voiced singer Sara Whittaker-Gilbey (from Mara) and the ‘producer’s producer’ Uberzone for an exclusive version of their new tune ‘Fuego’.
