NSDTCM:4HERO
LABEL:SONAR KOLLEKTIV

With the outstanding success of the two first ...mixing compilations from JAZZANOVA (SK033CD/LP) and Âme (SK96CD/LP), Sonar Kollektiv had to find another artist again that could bring something special to the series, so as to keep it really innovative. And they found the right one in the person of DENNIS Mc FARLANE a.k.a DEGO of 4HERO. With his partner MARK CLAIR a.k.a. MARC MAC they massively changed the face of 90s music and made a huge contribution to dance culture.

Reinforced was labelled NME album of the year and their album 2 Pages on GILES PETERSON’s Talkin’ Loud was nominated for a Mercury Prize Award and won them a MOBO award in 2001. They recently released Play With The Changes on their own Raw Canvas label, which received a critical acclaim in UK.

4HERO are real world musicians. Rather than integrate, they interrogate the music history and are able to mix past, present and future.

They were the most suited artists to bring something new to the series and Sonar Kollektiv is happy to let DEGO teach us a lesson of Black Music history for the third installment of the …mixing compilation series.
