 World class sounds... September 23, 2007
M. R. Montgomery (Malaysia)
I heard Hernan at Pacha in Ibiza during the summer...there was love in the room. The essence of his sound is captured in this cd pushing the limits yet again. He brings back the spiritual element of clubbing that I thought was long lost. He is a legend in he making. Best to listen to it in its entirety to get the full hit!

...the Sirens, beckoning in beautiful tones, luring even the strongest men into shipwreck upon their shores. Hernan Cattaneo, widely known as one of South America's most successful progressive DJs, could just about accomplish the same - at least, in my opinion. Sequential testifies to this: Each disc is a superbly mixed sequence of superbly chosen tracks by superb artists. Need I say more? Well, perhaps.
From the very introductory sound of disc one, the intricacy and brilliance with which the beats are placed becomes self-evident; so, too, does this happen when the mixing is considered This mix radiates 'smoothness' all around it. The disc is so revealing and yet lacks every bit of unnecessary audio input other DJs seem to let seep into their mixes. Disc one's opening track, Gui Boratto's "Arquipelago," has such a devious and mesmerizing tone to it - combining a unique bassline with some hard-knocks and cresendo's. It instantly hypnotizes and Cattaneo seems to flawlessly lead from this track into Petersky's "F**k Them All". During this transition disc one has begun its fantastic and unmistakable journey - guided by seemingly impeccable track choices, a few of which include Paolo Mojo's "1983," and "Wonka" by Way Out West. I have seen plenty a DJ simply BUTCHER tracks by W.O.W., but Cattaneo makes the track feel cosily at home in this stunning flow of nearly-flawless track selection.
Disc two is just as good, if not better! Honest, I would pay 18.99 for the first disc alone. On the second mix, we discover a CD with a slightly denser and thicker aura which remains consistently enjoyable and hypnotic throughout the entirety of its twelve superb tracks. I want to say that beginning the album with "Beastman" by Bushwacka! I found incredibly unique, yet it gets the job done. Scratch that. It literally MAKES the beginning of the album. From the moment that beat drops, there is no going back until that fateful moment when "Sirocco" fades into silent obscurity. Other noteable selections from disc two include Derek Howell's "Cram It Up Your Cram Hole" (If you say so, Derek...) and the Luke Chable remix of "Two Full Moons And A Trout".
This is such a superb recording - infused with sexily smooth, hypnotizing and consistent... well, everything - that I cannot believe it took me this long to stumble upon Cattaneo. I'd place the quality of his sound amongst the likes of few others... one example might be Nick Warren, but that is the only comparison that comes immediately to my mind.
Bottom line, Hernan's sexy smooth rhythms warrant the purchase of this release; I believe it will change your perception of not only the artist, but of progressive trance genre itself and the direction it is heading towards.
"Renaissance: Sequential" is orchestrated electronic genius.

A Succession of Successes January 17, 2007

Hernan Cattaneo has proven himself such a skilled sculptor of sly house sounds that he is (as yet) the only artist that the Renaissance label has asked to come back for a second go-round on their dynamic and near-flawless Master Series. He's back again, this time with his very own series -- Sequential -- showing off the talent that has won him accolades in DJ mags and deep-dub clubs across the world.
The first disc shows us a crafty Cattaneo, piling on sly samples of dark organic rhythm, creating out of thirteen tracks one seamless song dripping with his trademark backhand-bass. He builds the mood up slowly with a few ambient selections by Gui Boratto and Petersky, but by the time he's into Tommyboy & Mannel's "Feel It," he's established a headier groove. He sets up tribal horizons around slightly synthetic cores (the mix of Mundo's "Je T'Amie" with Cattaneo's own "Two Sides of a Story" is a prime example of this), reaching a beautiful (and almost chaotic) climax with Way Out West's "Wonka." The sonic stream strays a bit through "With My Friends" by Randall Jones (the song seems skinned and self-conscious, with a disinterested fellow mentioning casually that "the DJ had the spot flaming"), but by the time Cattaneo winds things down through Phonique's "For the Time Being," this lapse is long forgotten.
Disc Two has a much grimmer feel to it. The lead-in, "Beastman" by Bushwacka!, features a thick stew of insidious sounds, all of it laid over the toneless rhythm of a bass pluck that sounds like it's strung with human nerves. From here, Cattaneo takes the record into places that make you squint your eyes, but not because they're bright. Bailey's "Fatal Attraction," Howell's "Cram It Up Your Cram Hole," Welton's "Lisopain" -- they all drive the music to the edge with raucous (almost violent) insistence and a complexity that is stunning but never too busy. Among all of this we catch lonely chorus moans, quick-and-cool whispers, and a heaping helping of vicious glee. The second record showcases a darker Cattaneo, but one still at the top of his game. And although things are gloomier, they are -- just as in the first disc -- something you'll definitely want to dance about.
 Good Progressive- Nothing Special. December 14, 2006

This is a quite good mix. The sounds and ideas behind it is like every other standard progressive mix, energetic and bassy, combined with dark piercing sounds giving you that powerful progressive feel. However, it is definitley not a 5 star mix like everyone else is freaking out about.
5 stars to me, is for something that is absolutley extraordinarily beautiful, something unique, a masterpiece.
This is an average progressive mix, absolutley nothing special about it, but im not saying that its not very good.
I give it a 3.5. It's Good for what it is.
HOT PARTY! December 13, 2006

FOR ME, IT HAS BECOME OFFICIAL...I LOVE THIS GUY AND EACH ALBUM GETS BETTER THAN THE LAST; I HAVE HAD NO COMPLAINTS IN THE PAST, BUT HE CONTINUES TO GET BETTER AND BETTER. THE MAN JUST HAS A GIFT FOR PUTTING A CD TOGETHER. HE HAS A GREAT WAY OF EASING YOU INTO A GROOVE AND THEN, CUT BY CUT, HE RAISES THE STAKES, GETS FUNKIER WITH EVERY TRACK, BUILDS UP TO A PEAK AND THEN TAKES YOU BACK DOWN EASY.
THE FIRST TIME I HEARD CD ONE,I WAS WALKING FROM WORK, AND BY THE TIME I GOT TO THE MIDDLE TRACK I WAS OVERCOME BY THE FUNK. IMAGINE A 60 YAR OLD MAN DANCING UNDER A STREET LIGHT, AND YOU'VE GOT THE PICTURE. I FINALLY GOT MYSELF TOGETHER AND MADE IT TO MY CAR....ONE BEAT, ONE STEP AT A TIME AT A TIME.
CD TWO IS HOTTER YET AND IT IS ONE GREAT PARTY.
ON THE DOWN SIDE...I CAN'T GO BACK TO DEEP DISH OR KLEINENBERG OR YOSHIESQUE,WHO HAD,UP UNTIL NOW, DOMINATED MY AWARENESS OF THIS BRAND OF FUNK. I LOVE HIM, I LOVE HIM!
