Your least fave GU?
View this Thread in Original format
torontotrance
two questions
1)what's your least fave gu and why?
2)how many GU's do you own?

ima start

GU018 has to be the weakest effort, dunno where Warren was going with it. Either that or GU026, which was pathetic and a look at me view

i own
4,6,7,8,11-15,18-20,23,24,26, nubreed 2,4,5 and lights out 1

Worst = 020, just was not impresed by this 1 at all,

I actully dont own any as in bought, thou i have downloaded:

GU = 001-026
Nubreed = 001-006

Have them all downloaded
Cobalt
Of the ones I've heard, probably 022. I love Dave Seaman but Melbourne was boring as sin. It was a major letdown for me.
Subtle
I own:

Global Underground 3 - Nick Warren
Global Underground 6 - John Digweed
Global Underground 14 - John Digweed
Global Underground 17 - Danny Tenaglia
Global Underground 18 - Nick Warren
Global Underground 19 - John Digweed
Global Underground 22 - Dave Seaman
Global Underground - Arrivals
Global Underground - Departures
Prototype II - Seb Fontaine

and I can honestly say that Danny Tenaglia is the worst of them all... I also got another compilation by Tenaglia.. called Back 2 Basic.. and yeah I think it sucks big time.. just dont like his style at all... as for the other compilations, they are all great from time to time.. quality compialtions.. and capable of being listened too over 10 times more than a regular trance compilation..

btw: did u know that they print Global Underground in over 500.000 CDs.. awesome.. quality music...

that's a very stupid argument to make
you love the music
support the artists

No, I am not rich in any way. I pay for my college tuition (barely), not my parents. I have a part time job. I don't see a reason why you wouldn't be able to do the same thing, unless you're a spoiled brat.

bull, get a job
DJ Intrigue
I own these:

GU:013 Sasha in Ibiza
GU:014 John Digweed in Hong Kong
GU:018 Nick Warren in Amsterdam
GU:025 Deep Dish in Toronto
SAM:003 Destinations Sampler

I've heard many of the other ones, so I'd have to go with GU:023 and GU:026 as the worst compilations. I don't really like James Lavelle. Nu-skool breaks are not my thing. Also, I hate how he uses all of his own tracks (aka UNKLE) and fuses hip-hop in the mix.

torontotrance, I know what you mean about the Nick Warren GU. For me, I think his mixing sounds like crap and it seems to lack a seamless flow. You have to admit though, some of the songs on GU:018 are class, such as Weekend World - The Word and Ariane - Eternity. That's why I bought my copy, plus mine is the longbox edition.

word!!

I **own* the following GU's:
GU006, GU009, 013, 019, 021, 022, 024.

Nubreed:
002-006 (I got 002-005 on some promotion from GU. I think I paid like $80 for 4 nubreeds. WICKED deal!!)

Other:
Involver

My least favourite would probably be GU006...but it's by no means bad.

ps. How's Anthony Pappa's nubreed?
SlickT
i own 004,009,011,012,013,014,016,018,019,022,023,024,025,026,24/7 danny howells,departures,involver

i would say 022 is probably the weakest one,don't get me wrong it has some nice tracks on it,but overall as a whole its just not very good. i would also say the same of 026. 025 could've been a lot better if some of the vocal tracks were left out. it just seems that recent efforts with the exception of 023 and 024 have just been slapped together.

Nite-Mer
I would say my least favorite is Danny Tenagilia - Athens (I believe it's 4). Nick Warren - Rekjavik is also kind of weak. I believe that was 26 you mentioned.

I own a bunch of em. None of the De Vit's, but I have all the Oakie's, all the Sasha's, all the Warren's but Rekjavik (but I have the vinyl sampler), Most of Digweed's (Missing individual discs from Hong Kong and Sydney), No Deep Dish (except vinyl sampler Toronto), and I have one disc of Dave Seaman (what is it Capetown, I think). Sasha GU 13 is my favorite.
