Finnish duo Ville and Martti are probably better known to you as Renaissance Man and they’ve made it their mission to bring House music back in a gigantic, fresh way for 2009. In the last six months, they have racked up some stellar releases on Dubsided, Kitsune and Sound Pellegrino, helping revitalize a genre that was hurting for new sounds.
We’ve tapped Renaissance Man to remix Sissy Nobby’s upcoming Mixpak release “Lay Me Down” which should be out by late October. You’ll be hearing much more about Nobby in coming months, but there’s an awesome introduction to the New Orleans Sissy Bounce genre in this XLR8R article. If you want to hear a overview of the genre, I’d advise Dre Skull’s excellent Sissy Bounce Mix for XLR8R.
More details about the Nobby release coming soon, but listen to this jackin’ house mix Renaissance Man did for Sixpack France which they filled with exclusive Renaissance Man bootcuts and re-edits, including a sneak peak of their forthcoming Sissy Nobby remix . Sixpack is also offering an exclusive Renaissance Man inspired t-shirt which you can grab here! Update: I have one, and it is awesome.
