Editorial Reviews

It is of no surprise that Lee Burridge has been tagged to present the second installment of Global Underground’s 24:7 series, although, 24:7 is much more than a series. It transcends the confines of a single mix, a single night, one club or one style. It is the way that life sounds from the inside-out for a DJ that can’t get the music out of his system.

Lee Burridge has come a long way from his days zooming around the UK as a mobile disco DJ in 1985. He was later discovered by Sasha and Craig Richards and they eventually persuaded him to return to Britain (from his then home, Hong Kong) to start the now legendary Tyrant nights. (This night was later documented on his Tyrant mix albums.

Burridge has worked hard, touring the globe and establishing an enviable reputation for wide-ranging DJ sets comprising of - Techno, House, deep grooves and Breakbeat. He has an ability to flip genres like a magician flipping tricks. Just as you're settling into a whacked-out echo chamber groove, you're whisked into silky deep house heaven and you don’t know how you got there! Futuristic breakbeats crash into pulsing hi-NRG house and then into powerful bass-led grooves with floating flutes overhead. The genius of a mad mixologist!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ah, now this is better, January 27, 2004

By

By implication, the 24:7 concept is going to contain some quite eclectic track selection, irrespective of which edition it is, or who the DJ in question is. This may be the one thing that became a self-imposed spanner in the works for Danny Howells - the eclecticism worked beautifully in the Day disc, but came sorta unglued in the Night disc.

Lee Burridge - no problem. Eclecticism for most people is just another day in the office for him. It shows on this mix.

Disc 1 - Day is just as good as Howells' effort, if not better. The mood is different, reflecting typical Burridge diversity with spacey echoes, whacked out breakbeat and some deep house vibes thrown in for good measure. The mixing is, as always, impeccable, and Burridge shows great judgement in his programming. The stand-out quality in this disc is the clear, clean progression that Burridge establishes without degenerating into samey-sounding house beats and techno-clacks. If Howells had you introspecting peacefully with his Day disc, Burridge has you bobbing about in your chair with a wide grin on your face - there's a bouncy, feel-good quality about this disc that's hard to describe.

Disc 2 - Night is where Burridge scores over Howells hands down. His NuBreed effort was, IMHO, the most under-rated of the entire series, whipping from mushroom-house to deep house to techno to deep house to breaks effortlessly. He shows this same ability in this disc, all the while retaining a definite danceable vibe. I still rate the Day disc better, but this one doesn't leave you feeling flat. Good representation of Lee Burridge DJing into the night, methinks.

If you're new to the 24:7 series, start with this album before listening to the first edition by Howells. It will give you a much better first impression. If you like Disc 1 but wish Disc 2 was a little better - buy the NuBreed by him and listen to it. If you don't like Disc 1, I'm sorry, but this series ain't for you.

Disc 1 - 5 stars
Disc 2 - 3.5 stars
Overall - 4.25 stars.

3.0 out of 5 stars Proof That Lee Burridge Can Groove Too, May 27, 2007

Two years after his premier on the Nubreed series, Lee Burridge is back for his second release under Global Underground. This time it is for the subseries 24:7.

Disc 1 (day disc) has too many Rogue acid and trippy techno tracks for this reviewer's taste. I don't mind these subgenres of electronica, but a whole set of them can get annoying. Thankfully there are a couple of stellar tracks on this disc which help to balance it out. Noteably, "Phil's Science" by Philemon and "Rabbit in the Moon" by Deeper.

Disc 2 (night disc) proves that Lee Burridge can get also get his groove on. This disc's track selection is much more diverse and entertaining. The set as a whole works very well. There are still frequent bursts of trippiness, but it doesn't overwhelm as in disc 1.

Disc 1 gets 3/5 stars and Disc 2 gets 4/5 stars. Too bad GU doesn't offer disc 2 from Nubreed and disc 2 from 24:7 in a hybrid package! That would be a very decent compilation by Burridge.
