RELEASE NOTES:
-------------
ITÆS VERY EASY TO THINK THAT ENGLAND AND AMERICA ARE THE ONLY PLACES IN THE
WORLD WHERE AMAZING PARTIES TAKE PLACE. DESPITE THE FACT THESE TWO COUNTRIES
PROVIDED THE FORMATIVE FOUNDATIONS OF DANCE MUSIC AS WE KNOW IT TODAY, THEY
ARE NOW CONSTANTLY BEING CHALLENGED BY NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK; NEW COUNTRIES
WHO ARE DISCOVERING DANCE MUSIC, GRABBING IT BY THE SCRUFF OF THE NECK AND
EMBRACING IT WHOLEHEARTEDLY. WITH THIS COMES NEW TALENT; FRESH PRODUCERS AND
DJS WHO ARE BEING THRUST ONTO THE WORLD STAGE AND GIVEN THE EXPOSURE THEY SO
RICHLY DESERVE. ONE SUCH SUCCESS STORY IS SOUTH AMERICAÆS HERNAN CATTANEO.
GROWING UP IN BUENOS AIRES, HERNAN LISTENED TO EUROPOP BANDS LIKE SIMPLY RED
AND LEVEL 42, MUSIC HE FOUND SIFTING THROUGH BILLBOARD MAGAZINE (THE ONLY
MUSIC JOURNAL HE COULD GET AT THE TIME). BUT IN 1987 A FRIEND VISITED
VINYLMANIA IN NEW YORK CITY AND BROUGHT BACK A SWEET TASTE OF CHICAGO HOUSE IN
THE FORM OF TRAXX AND DJ INTERNATIONAL PRESSINGS, WHICH FEATURED ARTISTS LIKE
FRANKIE KNUCKLES, DERRICK MAY AND INNER CITY. "THEY BLEW MY MIND," EXCLAIMS
HERNAN. "I LOVED THEM BECAUSE THEY COMBINED THE ENERGY OF EUROPE'S ELECTRONIC
MUSIC - BANDS LIKE DEPECHE MODE AND NEW ORDER - WITH THE SOUL OF AMERICAN
MUSIC. AFTER THAT, EVERYTHING CHANGED FOR ME."
ENTHUSED BY THIS NEW SOUND, HERNAN SOON SCORED A RESIDENCY IN A SMALL CLUB IN
BUENOS AIRES THAT LED TO HIM BEING INVITED TO PLAY IN CLUBS THROUGHOUT SOUTH
AMERICA. HIS TALENT WAS FAST BECOMING RECOGNISED AND IN 1996 HE SECURED THE
HOTLY CONTESTED RESIDENCY FOR A NEW WEEKLY SATURDAY ENTITLED æCLUBLANDÆ.
WITHIN 2 YEARS THE NIGHT HAD DEVELOPED AND WAS BEING HAILED AS ARGENTINAÆS
BEST CLUB. SOON ALL THE WORLDÆS ELITE WERE BEATING DOWN THE DOOR, GIVING
HERNAN THE CHANCE TO SHARE THE BOOTH WITH DJS LIKE SASHA, JOHN DIGWEED, DANNY
TENAGLIA, CARL COX, DARREN EMERSON AND, OF COURSE, PAUL OAKENFOLD. THE NIGHT
WENT FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH AND, AS THE MILLENNIUM LOOMED, BECAME WIDELY
REGARDED AS THE BEST IN THE WORLD, WITH HERNANÆS CONTRIBUTION BEING CITED AS A
MAJOR PART OF ITS SUCCESS. ON HEARING HERNAN'S ECLECTIC DEEP HOUSE, TRIBAL AND
PROGRESSIVE SETS, CREAM IMMEDIATELY CHOSE HIM AS THEIR SOUTH AMERICAN
RESIDENT. HE THEN WENT ON TO WIN BEST DJ AWARD IN 1996 AND 1997. FROM THERE IT
WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE HERNAN WOULD GET THE CHANCE TO PLAYED BEYOND
HIS HOME CONTINENT, QUE ONE PAUL OAKENFOLD, WHO INVITED HERNAN TO TOUR EUROPE
WITH HIM. FROM THIS POINT, UNIVERSITIES AND CLUBS THROUGHOUT ENGLAND AND
EUROPE BEGAN TO HEAR THE SOUNDS OF HERNAN CATTANEO, WHICH IN TURN, LED TO HIS
PERFECTO SIGNING FOR BOTH THE SEMINAL æDEEP FUNKÆ AND æSOUTH AMERICA', HIS
FIRST ORIGINAL PRODUCTION AND MIX COMPILATION RESPECTIVELY.
IN '98 AND '99, HERNAN ALSO TOURED THE STATES WITH OAKENFOLD, WHICH INTRODUCED
HIM TO MANY HIGH PROFILE VENUES AND EVENTS SUCH AS NEVADA'S BURNING MAN AND
THE RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE IN DENVER. RESIDENCIES SOON FOLLOWED AT CREAM, BOTH
IN LIVERPOOL AND IBIZA; PERFECTO IN IBIZA AND GIGS FROM ICELAND TO SINGAPORE.
COME THE SUMMER OF 2001 AND HERNAN WAS PLAYING GIGS SUCH AS CHANNEL 4'S
CLAPHAM COMMON EXTRAVAGANZA TO A STUNNING 70, 000 SCREAMING FANS. OTHER
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCES OF THAT YEAR INCLUDED THE BEDROCK ANNIVERSARY,
CREAMFIELDS AND THE CREAM BIRTHDAY AT NATION IN LIVERPOOL. HE HEADLINED
CREAMFIELDS IN BUENOS AIRES AND SCORED HIS FIRST HOMELANDS APPEARANCE. BY THE
END OF THE YEAR, WITH HIS CLUB HIT "DEEP FUNK" BLOWING UP THE CHARTS, HERNAN
MADE # 50 ON THE DJ MAG CHART AND WAS AWARDED THE HONOUR OF BECOMING ONE OF
THEIR COVER STARS. SEPTEMBER 2001 ALSO SAW HERNAN WINNING THE 'BEST NEWCOMER
DJ' AT THE PACHA IBIZA AWARDS.
THE MOMENTUM DID NOT STOP THERE AND CONTINUED THROUGHOUT 2002 / 2003 AS HERNAN
FIRMLY CEMENTED HIS INCREASING REPUTATION, RISING TO # 22 IN THE DJ MAG POLL
AND GETTING RE-BOOKED TO PLAY ALL THE AFOREMENTIONED FESTIVALS (THAT INCLUDED
A 2 SET APPEARANCE INFRONT OF A RECORD-BREAKING ATTENDANCE AT CREAMFIELDS,
BUENOS ARIES), WHILST HIS DOMESTIC CLUB BOOKINGS CONTINUED TO TAKE HIM AROUND
THE WORLD. THINGS WERE NO DIFFERENT IN THE STUDIO, WHERE MATTERS WENT FROM
STRENGTH TO STRENGTH, CULMINATING IN AN AMAZING REMIX OF MORGAN PAGE FOR JOHN
DIGWEED'S PRESTIGIOUS BEDROCK IMPRINT, PLUS AN ORIGINAL PRODUCTIONS ALONGSIDE
SUBLIMINAL AND YOSHITOSHI FAVOURITE, DEAN COLEMAN AND THE PROLIFIC JOHN TONKS.
KEEN TO CAPITALISE ON THIS CONSISTENT EXPOSURE, HERNAN KNEW THE TIME WAS
COMING TO ONCE AGAIN RELEASE A MIX COMPILATION AND, IN ONE OF THOSE SIMPLE
TWISTS OF FATE, HIS WISH COINCIDED WITH AN OFFER FROM RENAISSANCE TO COMPILE
AND MIX THEIR NEXT 'MASTERS' COMPILATION. FROM ITS CONCEPTION BACK IN 2000,
THE MASTERS SERIES HAS ALWAYS SHOWCASED SOME OF THE WORLDÆS FINEST DJ TALENT.
THE ALBUM WAS WELCOMED BY A BARRAGE OF CRITICAL ACCLAIM AND KICK-STARTED WHAT
HAS ARGUABLY BEEN THE ARGENTINE STAR'S BEST YEAR YET; AS 2005 FAST-APPROACHES
HERNAN'S HARD WORK HAS PAID THE ULTIMATE DIVIDEND.
FOLLOWING A 2004 WORLD TOUR TO PROMOTE THE AFOREMENTIONED MASTERS ALBUM
INCLUDING GIGS IN THE BEST EUROPEAN CLUBS, FIVE TOURS AROUND THE USA AND THREE
AROUND ASIA, A BUSY IBIZA SEASON PLAYING ALL THE MOST RELEVANT CLUBS
(INCLUDING THE RENAISSANCE OPENING PARTY AT PACHA WITH SASHA), ANOTHER SUMMER
ON THE MAJOR FESTIVAL CIRCUIT ûINCLUDING AMONG OTHERS CREAMFIELDS LIVERPOOL
AND BUENOS AIRES, HOMELANDS, GLOBAL GATHERING, FESTIMAD AND SKOL BEATS-, HE
FINALLY CRASHED INTO THE 2004 DJ MAG TOP 10 DJS WITH A BANG, LANDING AT # 6.
WITH THE 'VOL.2' FOLLOW-UP TO HIS MASTERS SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE IN FEBRUARY,
THE JUGGERNAUT EXPRESS THAT IS CATTANEO SHOWS NO SIGN OF SLOWING DOWNà
ANOTHER WEEK ANOTHER GOOD SHOW, ENJOY
