Nick Warren - GU 30 Paris

[JK224]

Just got an email about a future GU release: Nick Warren is going to do #31in Paris...Warren is a cool dj and I enjoyed most of his GU mixes but...I wish they would get some new djs to put together mixes. (Ex: Hernan Cattaneo, Desyn Masiello, etc)

Why this series is still going is beyond me.

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

I must admit the long time between mixes makes me wonder how they make any cash

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

It would do better just to give Nick his own series like Seb had Prototype

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

Imo Nick Warren isn't that great of a dj from what I've heard. Track selection is always on point but mixing wether cd, or live has never done anything for me. whichever GU it was that he did with the track "dirty" ( obscene , dirty, filthy, immoral, etc) was one of the worst mixed cd's I have ever heard. No thought put into it at all. I guess he's the only one willing to keep it going, aside from deep dish. I agree with the above, new talent or just halt the whole thing.

I've enjoyed most of Nick's older sets... but yes we need new talent to pump up the series.

No it was the amsterdam set i'm thinking of. the renaissance set was great I agree, I think it had a remix of that track on it. But amsterdam definitely turned me off.

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

i like that one too ahaha. disc 1 at least is awesome. the 2nd one has some banging tunes, but its messy as hell, yeah

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

like i said, great tracks for the most part, but mixing eh. Maybe my expectations were too high, but after san fran and sydney and the nubreed series, you'd think it would be different. speaking the nubreed series why was Zabiela never put in that set.? His style to me is one of the most unique.

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

i'd imagine its the same reason hernan, fanciulli, and them aren't on GU...they got deals elsewhere.
6-7 years ago GU was what...like the only big prog comp series around? djs can get their stuff out elsewhere now. the whole city-theme thing is still awesome though.

I totally agree. sometimes the cd's are worth buying just for the sleeves and such.

when it comes to zabiela I meant back when GU was stil reigning, Zabiela was around I just wondered, especially when Satoshi tomeii was put on there and that cd wasn't unique or "nu" to me at all. it sounded like Pappa's resolution.

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

but loved danny howells... man i wish i had that with me now! forgot about that one...

Re: Nick Warren - GU 31 Paris

GU has become a self-parody...that´s my only explanation for this.

And what the fuck is up with choosing Paris? Is Paris supposed to have a clubscene? Well that´s a laugh! 10 years ago british magazines talked about "A Paradise Called Portugal" and they still haven´t made one here. Or Madrid, for that matter.
