Global Underground 026: Romania

Global Underground 026: Romania

The man from UNKLE is back! This time around, in Global Underground’s continued effort to explore the unpolluted dancefloors and sonic landscapes of the world, we took a little trip with the living legend himself, James Lavelle, to Romania where we visited some old Count’s tomb, drank loads of plum brandy and partied the nights away with James on the decks of Bucharest’s hottest, darkest and simply wickedest club ‘Studio Martin’. It is through James’ gigs in Romania that his inspiration came for his long-awaited, latest addition to the Global Underground catalogue, Romania #026. <P>Last year Lavelle made his debut with Global Underground with a mix from Barcelona, #023, an absolute blinder of an album. Since then he's spent the last year in the studio with Richard File as UNKLE making the awesome Never Never Land album which is as of yet domestically unavailable only serving to increase the fevered anticipation of the many die-hard UNKLE and James Lavelle fans. He has also been busy remixing the likes of Queens of the Stone Age, DJ Shadow and even the great rock monsters Metallica!
