Popular Renaissance selector Jazzy-T , the one that parties on his B-Day with  the world’s fastest man – Mr. Usain Bolt –  spinning  the tracks  at his  birthday  bash was chilling on MissGaza's couch last night.  It wasn't as fancy as when  DJ Usain Bolt did work alongside Jazzy-T himself,  and a long  list of popular  sounds and selectors including Renaissance, Stone Love, Black Chiney, Richie D. South Floridians,at the Seminole Hardrock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida  this past 17th of January but it was a honor to link with such a great  Dj & Selector,  part of one of the most legendary sound.

If you are not familiar with the legendary Ranaissance Sound here a brief head up.Renaissance Sound have been in the Sound System business for over 21 years and they are still fresh and killing it on the  dancefloors. Also, i think,  owning  some  of  the best and craziest  Dubplates on the scene now a days.Renaissance's  credo  of  great mixes and less talking,  will  show  excerpts  of a documentary  about  the  sound that is  being  produced  to  commemorate its 20th birthday.
One of the founding members, Delano Thomas, said Renaissance Disco was started  by himself  and  a former  member,  Devon  Chin, in 1989. Other Renaissance pioneers included Mix Master Marvin, Ian, Michael Edwards, Ronald McLean and DJ Marlon (deceased).
Renaissance Disco's first major debut was at a venue on Waterloo Road, where a party  was  being  put on by the original RAS Promotions. Both  Renaissance and Stone Love played at that party .Delano's crew  has been  working on a lot of remixes since their beginning, when they couldn't afford dubplates, till they did the remix of Beenie Man's Dancehall Queen and Bounty Killer's Nitro. 
Renaissance Sound System was also get known for breaking hip hop into dancehall .Delano Thomas was the personal deejay for Sean Paul, Bounty Killer, Beenie Man and Born Jamericans, while they were on tour. Renaissance always  kept in touch with the public as it simultaneously played at numerous events in Jamaica and the rest of the world. The sound system has played in countries like Germany, Japan, United Kingdom and throughout the Caribbean.Renaissance Disco now has many different  faces, not only Thomas, with his unmistakable eyepatch, Michael Edwards and Mix Master Marvin, who freelances with the sound system, are the only founding members still in the group. Big Ups Renaissance!
