Nottingham based Producer and DJ Danny Berman (aka Red Rack'em/Hot Coins) has released a lot of high quality dance music in the last 3 years. The man Gilles Peterson describes as 'not being able to put a foot wrong' has showcased his abundant production and DJ skills in some pretty diverse corners. As Red Rack'em, Danny has released massive deep house tracks on Untracked, Deep Freeze, Hometaping, Shift and Undertones. He's rocked Glastonbury, Snowbombing and Bestival, headlined a Boat Party at The Garden Festival, deejayed on Radio 1 and closed the Big Chill Festival with a legendary Monday morning set. Dannys Hot Coins disco project has been a similar success with EPs on Tirk and Society being well received and showcasing his unique approach to making disco music.
So it's with this backdrop that Bergerac was born. A new outlet for Dannys house tracks and album projects. 'The Early Years' album is a mixture of new material and tracks sourced from previous singles. Some of the tracks have previously only been available on ultra limited vinyl so this is the first opportunity to own them on a CD or download. There's also brand new tracks and the artwork is sourced from Dannys parents collection of family photos so it's a bit of a collectors item. The vibe is deep, jazzy, housey, fresh, underground dance music.
