Global Underground - London

Amazon.com
Tenaglia, the DJ's DJ, has always smashed down dance music's divisions by mixing whatever he pleases without losing a smidgeon of musical impact. So it's no surprise that Global Underground: London, a double CD mixed live in London isn't a fusty, dusty artifact full of novelty tracks. Forever passionate about the music as well as his mixing, Tenaglia's choices are inspired by what really works on the dance floor. Peace's Divison's "Tribal Funk" is wonderfully voracious, and ATFC's "In and Out of My Life" sits just on the right side of screaming-diva house. By concentrating on subbed-out electro house in all its sweeping orchestral glory, London rocks and soothes in equal measure. There are plenty of blueprints and uplifting twists, such as Minimal Funk IV's epic "Definition of House" and Vegas Soul's teasingly groove-oriented "Junk Funk," but that's not all. Tenaglia has split the CDs so each one leans toward either house or trance, each never to the detriment of the other. So for the most part, the second CD is a sexy, blissfully escapist soundtrack, and the first is super-funky house above all else. If you own other Tenaglia compilations, then you already know what his mixes sound like--taut bass lines, musical beats with a soulful edge, and plenty of extended, glorious breakdowns. If you don't, then this anthemic and occasionally ethereal mix will be both banging and astonishing. --Maxine Kabuubi

The groovy GU.......2007-04-28

Jungle and house with just a touch of trance. Very tribal and sexy-smooth. Totally different from any other GU release out there, Danny cooly went against the grain of the progessive trance scene. Danny Tenaglia, the first American GU DJ, had some serious balls doing this one out of London imho. Not as dark as John Digweed's Los Angeles mix, but it's the deepest mix in GU's arsenal.

Where as most GU's seem to have a distinct "personality shift" separating the two discs, GU:17 London's second disc picks right up where the first disc left off. A very mellow listen and not very dancey.

A Nice Blend of House vs Trance.......2007-03-18

Danny Tenaglia is one of those DJ's who likes to include music from all of electronica's genres in his sets. He does so again in this two disc compilation.

Disc 1 leans heavily towards house music while disc 2 enters the realm of trance and progressive house. I think both discs work and the track selection is fairly decent.

One thing I love about Danny Tenaglia is his choice of tracks to open a set. Global Underground 017: London is no exception. I think the first 2 or 3 tracks on both discs are the strongest elements for this album. On the other hand I wasn't too thrilled at his closers for both discs especially for disc 1.

It would be great to hear a set that opens brilliantly as per his trademark, but continues to stay with a more tribal house feel throughout. Tenaglia has an uncanny knack for mixing great tribal beats (usually in the first half of a set) which are sadly abandoned midway through a set. If he would put out a compilation that ends as strongly as it starts...

Both discs get 4/5 stars.

hmmmm.well I don't know about these reviews.......2007-01-20

usually GU offers the best in DJs and house music...this one man I got to pass..too slow...sounds like a slower version of Oakenfold or Digweed. God it was hard to listen to each track....christ...

I also got the Athens GU 10 hoping he would deliever... he didn't... so their ya go

The best tribal/deep house mix I've ever heard..........2006-02-23

After buying tons of CDs trying to find one that matches this set I think I may have to give up. Although I love Disc 1, the true gem in this set is Disc 2. I have listened to this hundreds and hundreds of times and to this day I love it as much as I heard it the first time. From the beginning, Microworld's Signals is a simple, repetitive loop that lasts for 10 minutes, but for some reason it hooks you and you find your head bobbing and fingers tapping. It really sets the tone for the whole CD, whose highlights include Elegia's "Basic," Vegas Soul's "Junk Funk" and Art of Trance's "Monsoon." However, tbe single best track on this album is the unbelievable remix of Schiller's "Ruhe." A similar mix can be found on the 2nd CD of Sasha and Digweed's Communicate, but this version is the one and only. Unbelievably deep bass, great drums and dark, eerie german vocals. A true masterpiece. The only drawback to this set is the mastering, as mentioned by a previous reviewer. The volume is set way too low and turning it up only starts to distort the bass. Unfortunate, but Tenaglia's mix itself is, in my opinion, the greatest ever.

The reason why I like Tenaglia..........2006-02-19

I have both the Athens and London GU collections. This is by far the better one. This is also the first thing I bought by him. I am in love with the tracks "New Day" (number 3 on disc one) and "In and out of my life" (number 6 on disc one). The words in both pieces I adore.

My only slight negative would be he has a tendency for repetitiveness in background beats within the tracks, but really this doesn't bother me so much because I love the song selection. I listen to these CDs at least once a week! He deserves the 5 stars!

One of my favourites of all time.......2004-02-28

This album was one of those lucky finds in the CD Club I was a member of- I saw the name Deep Forest and bought it without knowing anything else about it. I am so glad! This album makes me want to dance and dream. It can both move your body and put you in a trance. A great intersection of Jon Anderson's cerebral wistfulness, Deep Forest and others' adventurousness, and the Latin flavour of the original songs.

deseo remixes.......2003-01-02

I have owned this this cd before I had to buy it agian, it was stolen from me. I bought it when it first came out and 7 yrs later it still sounds good

It's Damn Good..........2001-02-08

Moves you like Sasha and Digweed. Vibrant and exotic. Expansive. Gets in there and writhes. It's a superb and unique recording. Cerebrally stimulating. Brings you up and lets you go...you'll love it.

I would't go there if I were you..........2001-02-16

Maybe Danny didn't have the copyrights to spin real records on this album, I don't know, but it's just background music. The first half starts out alright, sounding vaguely tropical and new-yorican, lifting a style from NY Club Body and Soul. And there are some clever samples...but they never go anywhere. If you want vocals, there are NONE except a bad remix of Keep in Touch Body-to-Body. I happen to like vocal-less techno house, but this doesn't cut it. The second CD is much worse. This is soulless Danny being heavily marketed to new-school clubbies tweaking under headphones with no history to ground them.

untouchable!.......2001-01-19

true brilliance!!! An essential cd for newbies and vets alike. It plays like liquid molasses; deep, thick, sexy. tennaglia once again displays why he is the US' top dj( I just wish he would make a san francisco apperaence). All fans of dance need to add this set to their collection.

As good or better than Athens.......2000-12-27

Danny Tenaglia does it again with this mixCD brought to us by the people at Global Underground/Boxed. It's, well, it's good stuff. Like Athens, Tenaglia is essentially bringing much more of a tribal/deep house sound to a series dominated by trance, but it's oh-so-very appropriate. After all, if it's all about the music, well it'll be tough to find better music than this.

Disc one works the tribal/deep house sound much more so than the second disc. Heavy on the percussion, this disc works a vibe that brings to mind drum circles under open stars just as much as it does circles of dancers under strobe lights. Overall, there's this ethereal yet sinister quality that gets built up over the course of the CD. Musically, it experiences its first (mind you, FIRST) peak with Onephatdeeva's "In and Out of My Life" --- but thematically, the mix takes it's first sharp upward turn at Coco Da Silva's "Suadade" with the first appearance of the "enchantment" sample.

Disc two continues the deep/tribal sound, but also has more trancey elements to it. The percussive elements riding over top of the underlying cadence of the kickdrum never quite cease, but the fade a bit as the music becomes a little less percussive and a little more melodic. Fortunately, Tenaglia's signature sound is maintained throughout -- that dark, sinister, yet extremely sexy undercurrent. Yes. Oh, yes.

So, do yourself a favor and pick this up. Then, do yourself the favor of reading the liner notes. Most excellent.

Just listen - it's delectable.......2000-11-08

I won't be going ga-ga over all the various tunes and this and that. If you like your house groovy, deep, sexy and different, do yourself a favor: listen to this CD. The first disc is one of the best mixed CDs I have ever heard, and his choice is impeccable. It builds in such a subtle fashion that you will find yourself wondering how you got to point B from point A. A sexy, sinuous mix that sneaks up on you, surprises you and makes you wonder what's coming next. And the 2nd disc? I can't say - I can't stop listening to the first one.

tribal heaven.......2000-10-21

I've heard some of Danny's records, and I've heard him live a couple of times, but I've never (for reasons I can't seem to figure out) bought one of his cd's or mixtapes. After listening to the first few minutes of this double cd set, I'm starting to feel like an idiot for denying myself for so long. I'm a huge fan of tribal house, and I even venture into a little disco house now and then. This album is ecxactly what I like to hear. I thought that Doc Martin's "United DJ's of America" disc was the be-all and end-all of house music, but Danny Tenaglia's latest installment of the "Global Underground" series is giving the doctor a run for his money.
