Renaissance Recordings
Renaissance Recordings is a British record label, founded by the club Renaissance in 1994. It went into administration in September 2010 and the back catalogue was sold to Phoenix Music International Ltd. After a year of inactivity, in July 2011 it was announced that Renaissance had been reborn, with founder and original owner Geoff Oakes once again guiding the brand. In 2018, media and finance entrepreneur Scott Rudmann acquired a majority stake in the label and began working in partnership with Oakes.[1] After a large period of activity, they ceased operations once again on 23 September 2014.[2][3] In July 2017, they released a new digital remix of Age of Love's song "The Age of Love" by Solomun that went to world no1 on the electronic music charts.[4]
