Renato Cohen is without doubt one of Brazil’s most high-profile and prolific
Techno producers and DJs. Though he’s been an established name on the
Brazilian club circuit for years and has released numerous
ground-breaking records, Renato deservedly hit the international
spot-light this year with his dancefloor smash ‘Pontape’, which was
rapidly signed up by Carl Cox’s Intec label on a recent tour of Brasil.
Renato’s original take on techno has always had it’s own flavour and
today more then ever it’s a sound sought after by international DJs like
Laurent Garnier, Technasia, C1, Dave Clark , Funk D'void and Carl Cox
to name a few. At a time when Brazil is establishing itself as a leading
global dance music market, Renato is firmly part of a selected group of
Brazilian producers including XRS, DJ Patife, DJ Marky and Mad Zoo, that
represent Brazil’s current producer talent. (Indeed, Renato scooped the
Award for Best Producer at Brazil’s coveted Palomino Awards 2002).
Renato Cohen was born in São Paulo, Brazil in 1974 and he has been
producing professionally since 1996. Also known for his unique live P.A
shows, Renato is one of Brasil’s hardest-working Techno Djs,
alongside Anderson Noise and Mau Mau. Add to that the planned releases on
international labels and
increasing requests for international DJ appearances and it’s clear
Renato Cohen’s future is assured. As Carl Cox himself said in a recent
interview: " Too hot to ignore". |
