New release from Rennie Pilgrem plus we have a free track to give away and free 140 bpm promo mix!

The latest in the Street Legal series is another double EP of multiple dancefloor goodness. Street Legal 3 ups-the-ante even more than brilliantly received number 2 (see below).

From the trip-hopped, transcendental’Dream 104′ throughto the monstrous, carnival meets G-funk of ‘Revolution 7′, via the futuristic ‘Machine’. From the full-on breaks of ‘One Time’ to the banging, 140bpm breaks/Nu Jungle throw-down of ‘Here We Go’ if you don’t like any of these, you don’t like electronic music!

As if that was not enough Rennie has also collaborated with Britain’s hotly-tipped answer to The Roots…’Left Step Band’ for some skanking, dubby, vocal action. The hooky, hook-up came about after Rennie met bass-man Zac on the set of the final Harry Potter movie. As Zac was a ‘Death- Eater’ his suggestion of a remix was taken very seriously.

Rennie is currently doing a rave-breaks remix for Supertronix act Jurassic & Codec called Hit Dat and is preparing his next release which is a Soundtrack Album from the film ʻThe Fixʼ. He is also one half of ʻones to watchʼ uberfunkers The Bush Doctors with Jem P from Fingerlickin. They have just started their first Residency (The Bush Doctorʼs Medicine Show) at West Londonʼs new Hotspot The Raving Buddha in (aptly named) Shepherdʼs Bush. The second dose on Feb 25th sees the mighty Freestylers join the Doctors for all things funky.
