It was released on 14 October 1994 and was the first in a series of mix albums released under the brand of the Renaissance nightclub. Containing music from the house, progressive house and trance genres, it was intended as a sampler of the kind of music played by the club.

The album was a critical and commercial success, charting and certifying silver in the UK, and considered by many to be one of the greatest mix albums of all time. The release was succeeded by numerous follow-ups, starting with Renaissance: The Mix Collection Part 2 in 1995 mixed by John Digweed solo.

In 2004, on the tenth anniversary of the album's release, a remastered version with a slightly altered track listing was released.

Background and release[edit]

Renaissance: The Mix Collection is a mix of house, progressive house and trance house of the early 1990s. The album was mixed by Alexander Coe (aka Sasha) and John Digweed who were both resident DJs at Renaissance in 1994, and the songs chosen were supposed to give the listener 'an idea of what [the club] was all about'.[1]

The album was released in a triple CD digipack case. The album cover is a renaissance painting of the Hebrew prophet Zechariah, by Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel.[2] A landscape portrait of a colleseum under a bright blue sky stretches inside the packaging. The CDs are arranged by colour; blue, orange, and green. Copylock dongle crack torrent. The story behind Renaissance, the club, between 1992 and 1994 is written on top of the CD flaps.[1]

Critical reception[edit]

Resident Advisor said the album was a 'landmark CD of its kind' and 'the great Daddy of all DJ mix compilations – the cornerstone for all things progressive, and a massive influence for legions of DJs to follow.'[3]The Quietus said the album marked the point of when the 'second wave of dance music crossed over to a wider audience' and said the album was 'arguably one of the first – and best - DJ mixes of its kind to be released on CD', referring to the album's 'then upcoming talents of Sasha and John Digweed blended effortlessly a heady and hedonistic miasma of progressive house and early trance that included Leftfield, Underworld, and Age of Love to freeze in time forever the euphoric nights that would become days that would become euphoric nights again,' featuring the album in their unordered 2015 list of their 'Favourite DJ Mix Albums'.[4] In 1996, Mixmag ranked the album at number 26 in its list of the 'Best Dance Albums of All Time'.[5] In 1997, Q ranked the album in their list of 'The 10 Best DJ Mix Albums..Ever!'.[6]DJ Mag included it on their list of '5 of the Best DJ Mixes of All Time'.[7]

In 2004, to mark the 10th anniversary of its original release, Renaissance reissued the album in a remastered version featuring a slightly altered track listing.

Both M People tracks were removed from this release and replaced with other contemporaneous dance singles: 'Renaissance' with 'Stand Above Me' by OMD, and 'How Can I Love You More' with 'I Can't Forget You' (Fathers of Sound Pleasure mix) by Anthony White. These changes were due to copyright issues from the record labels.

The re-issued album is not a straight re-mastering, but a whole new session. Though the original blend sequences remain the same, as do all the original elements, Sasha and Digweed re-created the album using Apple G4 laptops to create, what they considered, a better quality version of the original mix, with recording techniques simply not available in 1994.[8]
