    GU 013 ibiza

    The sun was shining - there I was lazing around, decided to dust off this classic.

    Absolutely mercurial - ambient intro tracks building to the lush Resistance D - feel high (Humate mix), via My Lexicon and Space Manoeuvres - stage one (Pariah remix) to peak time with Sacred, before a darker heads down driving finish with Amber's Natious that ends with that tranced out sublime '99 vibe.

    ... and that's just CD1 !

    If Carlsberg did time travel I'd be on the old Space Terrace (r.i.p.) right now watching Sasha at his most sublime ... why oh why isn't music this freakin good these days ?

    Rant over ... i'll crawl back under my stuck in the time-warp rock now.

      All in all...I think I will be going back there some time soon

      So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

      1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
      2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
      3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
      4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

      Am I close here?

          We dusted that off the other day. I got emotional just remembering the old terrace at Space. The wife and I were reminded of just how good this cd is.

                Packaging's always nice too - I even upgraded my GU 019 LA to the boxed version via e-bay the other day.

                    I got my original basic LA for £1.99 on sale ... but there was always a tinge of disappointment when I broke it out !

                      I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

                          Always put the classics on your pod.

                          I hope you at least had the '97 Sasha & Digweed JJJ set on if you didn't load up NE.
