10 mins into the cd .... seems like nick warrens trying sumthing different already

On first listen, this one was a good, solid Nick Warren disc, but really didn't grab me at all.

I'm going to give it a few more whirls and see what I think then...

He looks like a wax sculpture from Madame Toussods in that picture.

I just picked this up and still can't get past cd1... I am really digging this style, the mellowness and the emotion in it. Yes there are some lower points and all... but for the most part I would give CD1 a 9.5 out of 10. Ill give CD a buzz tomorrow as I fly down to the ATL.

got it today--post what i think this weekend


Posted by Sami.H on Feb-26-2007 16:35:

I love GU: Shanghai. The first cd is near perfection. This one certainly isn't bad either but different.

There some really nice tunes on cd1 like Nove - Sedatives but overall its too chill for my tastes. Now cd2 is a lot better imo. Will listen both discs more when I have the time.

Has he always looked like Fatboy Slim or is it just that pic?

Almost identical.

tripswitch - strange parallels is godly

Just got it a few days ago, but haven't had the chance to listen to it enough yet. It sounds nothing like his last one, GU028 Shanghai. It's definetly different from anything I've heard for Nick Warren before, which is a good thing if done right, and I believe that's the case here. So far I've liked it, and it grows better with each listen. That's definetly a good thing. I like the fact that Nick Warren threw some IDM in there, and some Downtempo stuff too. Makes it a lot more listenable when just chilling or relaxing. I suppose I'll have to give it a few more listens before posting more details.

EDIT: I must have been really tired when I posted that because there were some awful grammatical errors and sentences that didn't even make any sense lol.

Finally did the full listen od CD1....REALLY liked it.

After 3 listens and really FEELING the discs, then i can be a fair judge


Posted by DJNeuro1 on Mar-02-2007 16:29:

this cd is okay. I'm not really a fan of Nick's stuff and most of both cds put me to sleep. but it looks like it was right on for those that like his stuff. not my cup of tea, but good none the less - Nick Warren is always at the top of the game.


also - almost all of the Global Underground mix cds are done in the studio with Pro Tools or whatever. the only ones that are realy "live" are the ones that say "live" on the cds. I forget which ones, but there are a couple that are really live.

oakenfold recorded 007 live, so it can be possible that nick recorded it that night


Global Underground 007: New York, Oakenfold is most definitely NOT a live set. as with the other GUs, it's representative of the set he played at the Global Underground party in New York. It doesn't say ANYWHERE on the cd that it was a live recording or even that Oakey actually mixed the cd. it's a classic, don't get me wrong, but it's NOT a live set. as far as I know, the only 'live' Oakey album is Cream Resident, and even that one sounds like they just picked the best of several of his sets. I think it's possible that Cream Resident is a truly live recording, but I'd be surprised.

It is!!

Just like Joey Fehrenbach- Being Around You

I think cd 1 is very good. I'd give it an 8.5/10

Cd 2 only a 6.5, although Blue Foundation - Sweep is pure class!!


Posted by Porky on Mar-04-2007 12:13:

awesome!

was expecting some pounding prog but was taken aback

cd1 is chillout downtempo blisssssss.. with even an ulrich schnauss remix! woot! cd2 is smooth and lovely too


cd1: 8.5/10
cd2: 7.5/10


Posted by shaolin_Z on Mar-05-2007 05:03:

Disc 1, more down tempo and chilled, with more of an IDM sound to it than Disc 2, very good. And Disc 2 is awesome too. Yeah, I love this GU, definetly different than anything I've heard from Nick Warren before, and definetly very good. 8.5/10

I guess I should add that this get's better with each listen, which is always a pleasing quality for any mix compilation to have.
