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 Foster has released with Detroit labels such as Transmat, Motech, Soiree, Subject Detroit, Wallshaker, Night Vision, Teknotika and other classic techno labels like Laurent Garnier’s seminal F- Communications, Monoid, and Synewave NYC. Rennie's first full length album "The War of Art" (2007) made waves for the cover design by GLMN (Alexander Gelman) of MoMA/The Smithsonian etc., known for his cutting edge album designs for artists like Blonde Redhead. The album also featured the underground hit, "Falling Skyward", notably remixed by Kompakt artist, Kaito (Hiroshi Watanabe). Rennie's second LP "Blood Sugar" (2010) was released on Italy's Rebirth label and featured several singles with photography and cover design by Kaito, by then a regular collaborator.

What I've been playing a lot lately this fall of 2022.

FALL BACK 2022

Welcome to DVO25-1: All of them were Hooj

I first tried DJing in June of 1998, using a broken Technics 1200 and an unreliable belt drive turntable from a local thrift store. I wasn't competent until after picking up real 1200s a year later, but that summer was the departure point for the many twists and turns of my DJ life.

Now it's 25 years later. I have little to show in the way of fame or money, but I'm rich in friends, music and memories. I'm celebrating those loves in the best way I can, by sharing music from throughout the long, weird journey.

I'll be performing one livestream mix a month from January to June of 2023, then putting the live cut on Soundcloud a few days later. Some will be broadcast from my basement, some from live gigs, and some from who knows where? Each mix will cover distinct tempos and styles I've played over the years, all while maintaining the heady, melodic, sometimes dark vibes that characterize all my music.

This is my first recording, from a wonderful little house party and totally failed livestream for my 43rd birthday. It's a bunch of the best New York and Progressive House from 1997-2002; the music that was so formative on me as a DJ. In this mix, I feature one of my favorite labels of the time, Hooj Choons!

TRACK LIST:
Sourmash - Pilgrimage to Paradis - Timo Maas Remix
Datar - B - Tarantella & Redanka's NYC Mix
Medway - Release - Lexicon Avenue Remix
Trancesetters - Roaches - Peace Division Remix
Killahurtz - West on 27th - Original Subway Mix

The Janitor Present's Ghosting

Tremulant wandering throughout deep space. Scans pulse beating lush sounds from local pulsar. Beaming down to check it out. Mega waves of radio interference. Scanning. Something making some serious groove here. We have detected... PLANEMO!

Every month we'll hop aboard our spaceship and search the galaxy to discover fresh and exciting sounds for the people of earth. When cruising through deep space, nothing is more important than a co-pilot. Olivia Bee is an ace at the controls. She’s strong enough to pull the ears off a gundark. When it comes down to it spaceship Tremulant would have been space dust if not for her quick mixing skills and knowledge of audio exploration.

… 

Olivia Bee is a DJ/producer who found her niche in Seattle's underground electronic scene in 2010, relied on as consistent dancefloor presence at the least. Raised amidst the varietal nature of music in Seattle, a unique flavor surfaces in her work bringing forth more than your typical dance tracks. Although mainly working with deep and minimal styles of house and techno, notes of blues, dub, rock, etc. are also carefully selected and woven into the basis of her DJ sets, as well as her production.

Olivia has assimilated much of her music-related knowledge by partnering with established local house/techno musicians and labels who have guided her through her budding passion. Meanwhile, her inspirations have expanded far from her hometown with major influences and connections out of Germany, Romania, Mexico and Spain.

She currently resides in Seattle, remaining involved in the electronic music and arts scene, while also managing Tremulant with her music partner, Joe Bellingham.

Calico (formerly Dj Bias) Is a Vancouver based dj who started when he purchased his first set of turntables after listening to skratch djs, quickly tho he moved into mixing Drum n'Bass. Things then really started heating up when he started a weekly Drum n’Bass night at The Met called ‘Fixed Fridays’ which went on for 4 years in Vancouver.  At the same time Bias also was part of a weekly Drum n’Bass radio show on local UBC radio CiTr 101.9 fm called ‘Shadow Jugglers’ with fellow Jungalist rudegal ‘MP’.  He has had the honor play along side artists such as Chase & Status, Nosia, Subfocus, Pendulum, Dj Hype, Dj Fresh, Kenny Ken, Dub FX, Marcus Visionary, Nicky Blackmarket, Remarc, Dj Zinc, Rusko, Djunya, Luke Envoy, Babylon System, Gridlok, Deaga Sound, Shy FX, Joe Nice, The Upbeats and Danny Byrd and played all across Canada and into the US all the way to Scotland UK. When Dubstep and deep end bass music was starting to come into the scene in the mid to late 2000s Bias was also a strong supporter playing the odd dubstep track at Fixed Fridays as well as hosting Dubstep and Drum n’Bass parties and doing a radio show on Dubstep.fm. If you’ve seen Bias play then you know he doesn’t mess around and always pushes the technical limits of Dj-ing as well as having deep selections of music and a passion to share the vibe. Fast forward to 2018/beyond, he is going by the name Calico with a monthly radio show on Friday 8pm-10pm(pacific) on Sub.fm. Calico plays and loves a large variety of music from 140/Dubstep, Grime, Trap, Bassline, and general rudebwoy bass vibes but will always be a strong supporter and advocate for his first love Drum n’Bass and Jungle music.
