    Re: Which is the best Global Underground Album?

    I thought Disk 1 of the Barcelona GU was pretty good - but the rest were shit, I'm with you on that. Seamen's Melbourne was the worst GU IMO. Disk one is just complete noise, disk 2 is the definition of bspf - long drawn out intros/outros, extended breakdowns every other track, build-ups to nowhere. Just a total waste.

    NYC - mostly for nostalgic reasons, some classics on this one
    Hong Kong - Totally captured the late 90's progressive trance sound
    Ibiza - See above
    Reykjavik - Perfect for the ride to the club (disk 1) and the ride home (disk 2)
    Shanghai - Great mix for long drives to nowhere
    Moscow - 90% flawless. It builds and builds right up until Bird of Prey, then it just comes to a screeching halt. Damn good otherwise.

    #1 GU of all time:
    LA - Not only the best GU, but best mix album period. Like Dark Side of the Moon or OK Computer, this is a musical masterpiece that requires long repeated listenings with high quality headphones to really appreciate it. I'll be playing this one until I'm old and grey and it should be preserved so that future generations can experience it.

                The first GU I listened to was Ibiza and is a classic but as far as they go Athens was incredibly deep and sexxxy. Frank Sinatra by Miss Kitten hot.

                      for me it's 013 as my all time fav dance album. next fav is 019 - i love it when the bass line kicks in in madam's penetration. you'll lose your mind.

                            2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.

                              this GU is special mainly because of the memories I have of driving to the mayan in LA with it on blast...also Oakenfolds GU was pretty sick too.

                              It was fun while it lasted...
