What do you get when you mix a classically trained, post-punk, disco-head; a Latin freestyle, Chicago house freak turned minimal-techno auteur; and thousands of records? You get Brooklyn's anything but inbred child: RUNAWAY. The duo have been informing each other's tastes since meeting at the Sonic Groove record store in early 2000, but Jacques Renault and Marcos Cabral didn't start producing their sound together until 2006. Due to the dirty disco edit release "Shadows" backed with "Ain't Afraid to Beg" on Wurst Edits that gained them coveted spots on the Glimmers' Eskimo V Mix and the Lindstrom and Prins Thomas' Essential Mix on BBC Radio 1, RUNAWAY has set a noticeable pace amongst NYC's finest. Collaborating on upcoming original work with the likes of James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem), and Brennan Green (Chinatown), RUNAWAY is also exporting their New-New York style abroad. Last year's 12" on Cosmo Vitelli's I'm A Cliché started the trend and with another 12" coming out on the Parisian label this fall, it will follow this summer's unprecedented dual label release of "Brooklyn Club Jam". Linking New York dons, DFA, with Berlin/London lords, Rekids the two releases of the track come complete with remixes from a slew of dance music's currently most celebrated producers including L.S.B., Brennan Green, Toby Tobias, Tedd Patterson, and AME. Test driven and ready to be dropped, "Brooklyn Club Jam" is slated to be one of the hottest hits of the year. Following the wild dance floor response to their debut tour that took them through Paris, Dublin, Berlin, Dresden and Istanbul in February, RUNAWAY is planning to round out 2000GREAT with more international dates including parties in London, Zurich and Berlin's Panorama Bar.
