Disconaut du jour, Jacques Renault takes the helm of the starship RVNG for the sixth in their genre defining RVNG OF THE NERDS edit series; beaming laser cut grooves through cosmic prisms and spacey funk, Renault's captaincy taps both celestial and terrestrial disco and we just can't stop listening to the results.

Sticking our necks out here, but we weren't crazy about Wade Nichols' - aka Todd Terje's - RVNG OF THE NERDS Vol 5. It got a lot of blog love, which is fair enough, the Norwegian edit-meister turned in an impressive collection of swampy psych-rock tracks. Nice, not too obscure so no one knew what the originals were, but peripheral enough to keep them interesting - perfect re-edit material right?. Well yeah, but coming after series highlight, Lovefingers' Vol 4, this fifth offering just felt a little flat in comparison.

Fear not, because Mr Renault flat out kills it with Volume No 6. His rising status, both at home in New York and abroad, as a leading light in the world of disco is confirmed further with this sublime example of musical knowledge, educated taste and that rare insight required to know exactly what will make a great edit.

Enough! You get it, we're fans. Get your lugs around this cosmic bouncer, it sounds like the soundtrack to the alien casino in Battlestar Galactica, brilliant. Boing!
