Биография

THE GODFATHER OF BREAKS. Son of a jazz trumpeter, he cut his teeth in bands in Kent playing keyboards and tenor saxophone. In London he was introduced to Rave music by DJ Ellis Dee. Together they were joined by Richie T and Nick 'Newton' Scott in hardcore rave outfit rhythm section, who released a slew of records in the early 90s, culminating in Comin' On Strong. It went on to sell over 25,000 copies on vinyl. When rave died, Rennie started his own label around 1993. He also started DJing internationally after one of his first releases 'A Place Called Acid' became an underground hit. A version of this track became the theme tune to the film Football Factory. TCR (Thursday Club Recordings) went on to release over 100 records and became arguably the most important breakbeat label in the world. As well as releasing several albums and many 12" singles, Rennie became an award-winning remixer for scores of artists. He also started the seminal club night Friction with Adam Freeland, Tayo Papoola and Ian Williams. It coined the genre ‘New School Breaks’ (Nu Skool Breaks). Based in London at Bar Rhumba, Friction moved to The End and then to superclub Fabric. Rennie’s live band The TCR Allstars featuring MC Chickaboo, William South, Richard Thair (Red Snapper) and Chris Carter played at many festivals in the UK and Europe and managed to make the Top 100 best ever performances at Glastonbury.
