After 15 years this still sounds fucking amazing and i will probably continue to listen to this set for another 15 years... people bash on progressive house/trance, but one thing that it certainly has more than popular music these days is that it will always remain timeless.

[@sittidejkitiparaporn6323]

Global Underground's contribution to Dance music is unparalleled. What Digweed, Tenaglia, Oakenfold, Sasha, Satoshi Tomie and Deep Dish understood is, a DJ SET is about the journey and taking listeners to places they've never been before. Some good DJ's out there now playing good track after another, BUT they've lost the journey aspect of dance music.

[@anthonyhoward4743]

well said m8

[@pricejoss]

Could not agree more. The journey has been, on the whole, lost as a concept with exception of DJs like Kollektiv Turmstrasse and a few others. I think the issue may also be to do with how similar productions are now because genres were a lot looser 20 years ago and DJs included a wider variety of tracks in their sets. The move away from analog to digital production is a factor too. And of course, there's the issue of BPM. Music always changes and comes back on itself and I'm hoping for a renaissance but whatever happens, the scene will never be what it was in the late 80s and 90s. Just be thankful we were there to experience it.

The build-up is magical and the tracks are supreme progressive. Love in traffic, My Release....More than excellent produced tracks and a trip to listen to.

Indeed.. Was one of my fave DJs back the late 90's.. Met him once.. Best friend knew him and brought me into 4th & B where he spun an after hours set to meet him... Same friend also introduced me to DJ Dan who was kicking it at my friend's house after he had spun a set at Club Montage in San Diego... Someone there had also given DJ Dan a fat sack of K, and DJ Dan gave it to me and then spun a set for me on my friend's tables with some of his vinyl... The next day my friend gave me a CD that had the set DJ Dan spung for me...

[@ilogicsPR]

Diggers to the rescue!!!!! My man never disappoints. Been following him since Renaissance's '94 double CD Mix release. When he and Sasha play together its ALWAYS STELLAR!! Seen them 6 times live together. Can't count how many times separately, but its a LOT.

[@SP-hi6dz]

that Satoshi's remix of "Mine to Give" to Simon's "Groove Is In The Air" transition is out of control, and these remixes are probably the best ones out there for those tracks. I saw Diggers at The House of Blues in Chicago during this album's release tour, and my buddy, who mind you is an avid Diggers follower, couldn't get into that set, and ended up leaving -- i said, there's not a chance i'm walking out of here.
