GU:027 Las Vegas. Mixed and compiled by Sandra Collins
This is it ? in GU fashion, taking on one of the world?s most glamorous locations and bringing in one of the underground?s most sexist female dj together for her homecoming in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sandra Collins returns to claim the throne as Global Underground?s first female dj for its main compilation. ?This is really special for me, I?m honored to be the first female dj to represent the Global Underground banner. With a rich history of pioneering djs like Sasha and John Digweed releasing timeless albums, I hope to continue that tradition ? wish me luck,? said Sandra on a phone interview in Santo Domingo on a night that she will be playing alongside Trance legend Paul Oakenfold. Already showcasing her skills this past year for Oakenfold?s Perfecto Label, I asked her if she was concerned by adding another 2-disc mixed cd was overexposure in such a short period of time; ?I do think it?s a bit much since I?m still basically promoting my current mix album for Perfecto, but how could I say no to Global Underground. They are a quality label that has pioneered a sound that has eclipsed the definition of underground dance music. Saying no to them is like saying no to producing Madonna?s next album.? As for possible new material from Sandra she says that ?maybe I?ll try to seriously finish some tracks and see if it fits with the vibe and the mood that I want, but I don?t want this to be just about me, but about all the talented producers that I?ve been supporting.? As the phone conversation continues, I asked if she knew where the party was going to take place as the last Global Underground compilation was held in Romania with James Lavelle. Her voice suddenly pitched up and I could tell she was smiling as she told me it would be in Las Vegas. Las Vegas I asked, well that doesn?t honestly seem like a logical choice for Global Underground since the title is Underground, but Sandra just replied with ?they asked me if there was a particular place I cared for that had an interesting vibe, a scene that should be represented and spotlighted and I said Vegas has always had this rockin? party attitude that really never showcased the sounds of underground dance music. It also helped that I?m from there so put the two together and that?s where I decided to do my album. Of course it?s not actually recorded there, but my cds will be based on the set I?ll be playing.? Our phone conversation nearing its end as Sandra is about to head out for her gig, I ask her one last thing before we end, ?so exactly which club are you going to play and when?? The phone?s quiet, silent for a solid minute and then a soft reply of ?I don?t know yet. All of this is happening so quickly, but from all accounts, it?s going to happen right after the New Year. Maybe the first week, if not, the next. It?s going to be a great year 2005, I can feel it.? That was it, Sandra headed off to play with Paul and I?ll be reserving a reservation to Las Vegas in early 2005. Now I just need to find out where it?ll be. A momentous night it?ll be for one of dance music?s finest female djs that will establish herself as one of the greatest djs of our time while reinforcing her selection as Global Underground?s first female dj for the label.
