Renaissance America - Premium Historical & Medieval Costumes for Cosplay, LARP, Theater & Renaissance Fairs | Authentic Period Clothing & Accessories

When I saw that Renaissance was going to begin a series of cd mixes for American audiences, I expected something along the lines of Paul Oakenfold's "Tranceport," i.e., a string of "anthems" aimed at whetting the appetites of rock-saturated American listeners for some new, cutting-edge electronic music. "Tranceport" is a fine cd, but for people who have followed trance and progressive house for any length of time, its track list seems a bit tired and overplayed, indeed.This mix by Dave Seaman surprised me--it's fresh and vibrant, and chock filled with new tracks that I've either heard only rarely or else not at all previously. Bravo! Seaman has not condescended to some image of an unsophisticated American audience in any way--this mix is energetic, powerful, and not at all "top forty" in its composition. In short, it's terrific, and especially at the price at which it's being offered at Amazon. com, it's one U.S. listeners "cannot afford to miss."
