Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Global Underground’s highly acclaimed, "alternative", "leftfield" clubbing series has returned with its second installment, Afterhours 2!!! This mix compilation follows the original Afterhours that, with its limited release, has become bit of a cult classic in most post clubbing circles.

This double-disc set is riddled with a variety of twisted, dubby, tripped out tunes perfect for the morning after, and features phenomenal new music from some up and coming artists alongside darker, spacier moments from the likes of Primal Scream, Tricky, Boards of Canada and Slam.

To complete the Afterhours experience, Global Underground has included an extra bonus DVD with five short and visually stimulating films. --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most essential recent electronic releases..., March 16, 2005

By	Takis Tz. (InYourHead) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Afterhours v.2 (Audio CD)

Global Underground is a label that constantly reminds us there can be "club music" that doesnt insult the listener's intelligence. Au contraire!

Aside of the fact that the so called "club music" has been associated with some of the most commercial and uninspired electronic music, one has to realise that this has been a choice of clueless DJs and not a necessity.

This label has offered a very convincing alternative. And it has been so with remarkable consistency quite some time now.

Being that this is a limited release you should urgently get it unless you want to miss out on one of the most significant releases in the electronica field in recent time.

It contains 2 CDs and a DVD. The music presented here is some of the most exciting and grounbreaking acts the label has to offer in some of their most intriguing moments. It's the music Global Underground is reknown for: dark, heavily atmospheric, intimidating, inspiring, spacey...But abobe all, intelligent.

If there was a SETI project for music it would surely detect this great label amongst its first findings.

The DVD that accompanies the very carefully (and with much gusto) assembled set is a worthy companion of the albums. Five videos faithful to the style that dominates the music, a modern optic experience in its own.

What needs to be said for those not familiar with G.U is that the music ranges from experimental electronica to house, but, within this range, anything you'll discover here is fresh, there's new ideas abound, cliches are avoided ruthlessly.

As difficult as it might be for the usually mindless crowds that pack the clubs just as rewarding it is for those that want their music to be a step ahead and to stimulate their minds.
Dont miss this.

3.0 out of 5 stars OTHERWORLDLY, May 13, 2005

By	S. Sullivan - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Afterhours v.2 (Audio CD)

You don't have to pop a pill, chew nasty fungus or snort anything up your nose to feel like you are trippin' a mile above earth... this CD will do it for you. All I can say is CCCCCRRREEEEEEPPPPPYYYY.... I am not sure if I like it yet, I got it yesterday so I will have to listen more. CD2 is more appealing to my taste.

Talk about dark. They should have called it After AFTER hours. It goes from lazy, to a sort of dramatic mourning feel, then a little sexiness... and for the most part the whole thing just sounds kind of EVIL. I just picture someone laying on the floor in a drug haze, spiraling down the rabbit hole. Either that or people sitting at 8AM in silence at a club with a wicked grin, bobbing to the beat.

It is definitely unique... totally moody tunes...I would borrow it from a friend before you buy though to make sure it is something you would dig.

It also comes with a clubbing DvD which is pretty fun. I love watching and listening.

5.0 out of 5 stars Add This To Your Collection..., May 12, 2005

By	R. Pollak "DJ Rick P" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Afterhours v.2 (Audio CD)

Picture yourself at 10am, driving home from the club, most likely a high energy night. You want to keep the vibe going but you've had enough of the hard hitting trance and in-your-face breaks for one majestic night. What to do? The AfterHours series was created for this reason, and they did a damn good job. So, before ingesting yet another capsule make sure to pop in your AfterHours CD (no pun intendend). BTW: If you're sober now, this CD brings you back to those majestic nights.
