Rennie Pilgrem is an artist that few would argue with being labelled as The Godfather of the Breaks scene. Since the early 80s, when he was playing a saxophone in funk bands, into the early 90s when he joined with Ellis Dee, Richard Thake and Nick Newton Scott to form the Rhythm Section hardcore rave act. Following on from this, Rennie founded TCR (Thursday Club Records), and used this as an output for his own material which consisted of funky house tracks with hints of breakbeat.
The next 10 years proved to be pivotal as Rennie shot to super-stardom after a string of hugely successful releases, including the classic track A Place Called Acid, and was collaborating with some of the biggest artists in the scene such as Adam Freeland and Tayo. Now, Rennie is well and truly at the top of his game, touring the World on pretty much a weekly basis and backing up his blistering DJ sets with consistently amazing releases. For these reasons, Trackitdown.net are very proud to present this exclusive remix competition and sample pack from one of dance musics hardest working, and longest standing legends.
