Details: The grand Jedi of dance brings his exciting, eclectic musical approach to Renaissance’s critically acclaimed 3D series…

Stepping into the shoes of Faithless is no easy task, but Renaissance had little hesitation inviting the esteemed, galactic ambassador of dance, Tom Middleton to compile and mix the latest instalment of 3D.

Over the years Tom has cut a respected musical swathe under a host of pseudonyms such as Global Communication, Cosmos and The Modwheel, not to mention his own righteous moniker. As a DJ he has toured the world; held a much-coveted residency at Manumission; produce landmark Essential Mixes and, of course, establish himself as one of the worlds most exciting compilation artists via diverse series such as Crazy Covers, The Trip and now legendary Sounds Of The Cosmos.

All in all, the perfect candidate to take up the 3D reigns.

“I love the 3D concept”, says Tom, “The club, studio and home discs provide me with the

perfect platform to showcase my musical diversity. Infact, I think this is the closest thing I’ve ever done to my ‘Cosmos’ compilation. I’m frequently asked if I’d ever follow that up and I guess this is finally it! I am certainly very happy with the end result.”

Tom has also embraced the 3D tradition, which debut compiler Satoshi Tomiie kick-started, by including 5 exclusives, produced or mixed exclusively for the ‘Studio’ disc, highlights of which are a remix of Ulrich Schnauss and two incredible Cosmos offerings – the brand-new, unreleased ‘Lost Inside’, plus a 3D dub interpretation of his seminal ‘Take Me With You’.

With the ‘Club’ and ‘Home’ mixes taking the album to a whopping 47 tracks, drawing on acts such as Groove Armada, Orbital, Incognito, Wink, Henrik Schwarz and Ben Watt, to name but a few, you have the perfect recipe for one of the most eagerly anticipated albums of 2008.
