eh Speedy Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Back In The Box doesn't seem to want to go back in the box. that cardboard slipcase is pretty damn tight. I like to keep all the packaging so I'm cramming it back in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloman Tump Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Thought their set on Sunday night was really good. Played 30 mins of acid house (voodoo ray, LFO - LFO), then went into dubby downtempo stuff (recognise a few tracks but to be honest this kinda killed the mood in the arena a bit and the crowds thinned out a bit), then the last 30 mins was drum and bass and old school (adam f - circles, a photek tune I cant yet ID, Liquid - sweet harmony, robyn S - show me love (high contrast remix) Great end to the festival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eh Speedy Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 The only unmixed tracks missing that are included in the mixes are the Intro and New Track by Link and Tom's Edit/Re-pitch of the Speedy J track (it's in it's original version unmixed) bliss Think I like the repitched Speedy J more, and the original is already on the A.I. comp anyway.

Guest Promo Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 New Reload material would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40days Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Thinking of buying this, but I've never really listened to any DJ mixes et cetera. Thus a few questions are in place. Is the mixed version simply the aforementioned tracks woven together with no other editing? And is the unmixed version only a compilation with no edits at all? Or have Mark & Tom had their hands on each track with some remixing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mixed version is a proper DJ mix (though the songs are mostly in full with minimal cross fades) CD 1 more upbeat Detroit Techno, CD 2 more spacey Ambient/IDM The Unmixed is just the original tracks in Full (no edits or remixing) great selection.

I see.. I find it weird that the unmixed comp then bears the Global Communication title. Have to think about it, the mixed version costs only some 10 euros on Play.

eh Speedy Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 It's worth it to get it mixed, and that's what this is about anyway. CD2, SO good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40days Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 It's worth it to get it mixed, and that's what this is about anyway. CD2, SO good! Yup, I ended up buying the mixed CD. Not a big loss if it's not good since it cost only 5 euros per CD. But I lay heavy trust upon anything that reads Global Communication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been driving up and down Pacific Coast Highway for 3 days and this is just destroying it everywhere i go. Let's hope so. I feel I've listened to a lot of electronic music but that tracklist has loads of stuff I've never heard before, so I guess there's a reason to be sceptical.

eh Speedy Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 So Juno has pulled the mixed version (or run out of it idk). I suspect this may be because of a bad pressing. The very tail end, and I mean the last 10 seconds or so, of disc 1 skip. They sent me out a replacement and that one does it too, but I'm sure NRK are pressing up a bunch more to replace those. In the mean time I'm sure the unmixed one is just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They most likely won't give a shit if the record needs to be replaced with a better press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Globe Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I bought both the mixed and unmixed versions of this due to the incredible track list and being an all round fan of Global Communication and everything they've done together or separately. I'm a bit pissed off though with the unmixed release - there are several tracks that just end abruptly on both discs, they are not edited to be shorter or don't fade out but actually just stop! I need to double check what tracks it happens on but I'd say at least 3 anyway. I can't imagine that this is a fault on the CDs given that it happens on both discs, anyone else got this unmixed version and experienced the same problem?

40days Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I'm very satisfied with the mixed version. Great music, and no skips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
