Lars Behrenroth's 'Ice On The Sun', originally released on Freerange Records in May 2008, is featured on Satoshi Tomiie's lastest mix compilation for Renaissance - The Master Series due out on November 3rd 2008.

Satoshi Tomiie is an artist who needs little introduction. From his first explosion onto the scene in the late eighties with the famed Frankie Knuckles collaboration, ‘Tears’, through to more recent work on his own esteemed SAW label, he has expertly walked the line, marrying deeper, more atmospheric sounds with his soulful roots.

The Japanese-by-way-of-New-York Don takes you on a sublime, deep tech-house excursion that draws on some of the brightest luminaries at work in the scene today, from Radio Slave to Layo & Bushwacka!, Jimpster, Motorcitysoul, Marc Romboy, Mlle Caro & Franck Garcia, Jeff Bennett and many more besides..

In his own words:
"My definition of house remains the same - 'an open minded, evolving form of dance music"

Red Bull Music Academy interviews have been the bomb since they started and the new one with Moritz Von Oswald is highly recommended.

If you dig Basic Channel Records, Maurizio, and Rhythm & Sound, you need to watch the entire interview and learn. Moritz Von Oswald is not only half of the beforementioned phenomenons but also used to be the drummer of the german new wave and avantgarde band 'Palais Schaumburg' (check Gruenes Winkelkanu to get an idea about the level of weirdness - I love it).
