Hernan Cattaneo is a progressive tribal house and trance DJ from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Hernan listened to European bands like Simply Red and Level 42, music he found sifting through Billboard magazine (the only music journal he could get at the time). But in 1987 a friend visited Vinylmania in New York City and brought back a sweet taste of Chicago house in the form of Traxx and DJ International pressings, which featured artists like Frankie Knuckles, Derrick May and Inner City. "They blew my mind," exclaims Hernan. "I loved them because they combined the energy of Europe's electronic music - bands like Depeche Mode and New Order - with the soul of American music. After that, everything changed for me."
Hernan is known for his eclectic mixes and for discovering new artists and tracks. In 2005 Hernan Cattaneo appears with a new release on John Digweed's Bedrock Records, remixing numerous tracks as well as extensive worldwide touring. His 4th compilation and his 3rd for the Renaissance imprint, Sequential, was released in 2006.
