Ep. 002 Rennie Foster : Music Production, RF record label & DJing for the people
<p>Rennie Foster has been a well respected figure in the Canadian music and art community since he was just a teenager. He influenced many as an early pioneer of the Hip-Hop / B-Boy movement and later the House Music and Techno / Rave scene. His musical career began as a member of "Sound Advice", one of the first Hip Hop groups to emerge in the late 80's from Western Canada. Members of this group went on to form the Juno Award winning act "Swollen Members", and Rennie went on to create a prolific solo career focused on underground dance music. Rennie relocated to Tokyo Japan in 2004 and became an important part of the Japanese club scene, playing all over Japan in venues like Womb, ageHa, Yellow, Unit, Metro (Kyoto), Triangle (Osaka), Be Green (Okinawa), Nagisa Festival etc., until relocating back to Canada in 2011. Rennie was consistently ranked in the top 50 DJs in Japan by LOUD Magazine, alongside artists like Towa Tei, Ken Ishi and Kentaro, a very rare honour for a foreigner in Japan. He has played venues all over Japan, Europe and N.America in cities such as New York, Paris etc. and continues to tour his unique style of hi-tech soul, fusing many aspects and eras of techno and house music culture with powerful, technical mixing skills. A true "DJ's DJ" who doesn't follow the usual rulebook.</p> <p><br></p> <p>In this episode we discuss his production process, his time in Japan, vinyl releases his label and upcoming shows. He is a mainstay in the Vancouver scene.</p> <p>Check out his music below:</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://renniefoster.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">https://renniefoster.bandcamp.com/</a><br><a href="https://www.beatport.com/artist/rennie-foster/3571" target="_blank">https://www.beatport.com/artist/rennie-foster/3571</a><br><a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/0WCunVNMnHjcHJQ26gtAmt" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/artist/0WCunVNMnHjcHJQ26gtAmt</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
