Sander Kleinenburg has for the past decade been considered the standard for the genre of house known as Progressive. My Lexicon established him globally as a top-level producer and is still widely regarded as one of the finest progressive house records ever made. Of course, following the release and worldwide attention, it was natural to start planning an album.
The only thing was that ‘worldwide attention’ meant his schedule changed massively and with offers coming in from all angles he strapped himself onto his metaphorical surfboard and rode the wave. In fact since 2001, Sander has released a comp every year, mainly through his strong connection with Renaissance throughout most of the naughtiest. He also went on to launch his own label Little Mountain Recordings, remix a whole host of artists including Justin Timberlake, N.E.R.D., Annie Lennox, The Eurhythmics, Sasha, and Janet Jackson, single-handedly pioneer DVJing (live DJing with visuals + music) and become one of the biggest DJs on the planet through his This Is brand that’s now synonymous with clubbing on Ibiza, in Amsterdam, London, LA, and wherenot.
But all the while he was creating and saving tracks, ideas and concepts for an artist album, waiting for the right time to properly record and release the material that he felt best represented him. Although that in-fact proved to be another hurdle as Sander’s influences and tastes are so varied, but his reputation was formed from his high-energy, peak-time house/techno DJ sets – what would a Sander Kleinenberg artist album even sound like? You may be surprised.
