After a hiatus of seven years, Global Underground are proud to resurrect their Nubreed concept, as rising British dj and producer Jim Rivers steps up to the plate to relaunch the series. Following in the footsteps of such names as Danny Howells, Lee Burridge, Anthony Pappa and Lee Burridge, Jim delivers a double disc of music featuring classics from Aril Brikha and Didier Sinclair alongside new material from Guy J, Unkle, Nick Muir, Stimming, in addition to new material from Jim himself. A global world tour will accompany the album with a launch party at the 2009 Winter Music Conference on March 25th, ahead of the album´s release on March 30th. The undergrounds rumour mill has been going into overdrive for the last few weeks, but its finally time to set the record straight. After a break of 7 years, Global Underground is to resurrect their legendary nubreed compilation series, with rising Brit star Jim Rivers stepping up to the plate for the first album. The DJ mix series that began in 2000, helped launch the careers of some of modern dance musics greatest DJs - Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, Steve Lawler, Lee Burridge, Anthony Pappa and Satoshi Tomiie. Following that illustrious line up, Jim Rivers has gained a worldwide reputation for his glitchy, groovy electronic sound, with an enviable CV notching up frequent dates at clubs like Ministry of Sound, Shindig and Urban Gorilla in the UK, as well as an international schedule thats seen him return to countless venues across the globe. His production pedigree includes Saved, Bedrock, Global Underground, Mouseville, Four:Twenty, Simple, Renaissance and Saw Recordings, and his own label, Misfit Records. "It´s been a long search, but finally I´ve found a DJ worthy of the nubreed series, welcome aboard Jim Rivers! Jim´s DJing, original productions, and remixing make him stand head and shoulders above the current crop of DJs; he´s a true star. nubreed was instrumental in showcasing to the wider world the career´s of now legendary DJs like Sander Kleinenberg, Steve Lawler and Danny Howells and Jim will fit in perfectly with the nubreed pedigree." - Andy Horsfield, Global Underground founder With the mix 3 months in the making, nubreed 7 promises to establish new standards for dance compilations and looks set to launch another career into the stratosphere... "As a fan, to hear that nubreed was to return was very exciting, but to be asked to re-launch the series after 7 years, that was something else, something monumental. Ive been working with GU for the last 4 years and knew that they had faith in me, but I never expected to get the call. To get this kind of opportunity - and from such a well-respected label well, it kind of blew me away... The previous releases were of such a high standard that I knew I had to deliver. Hopefully, people will enjoy it. - Jim Rivers, Jan 2009 [I]nubreed 7 will be released on 30 March 2009 accompanied by a Global World Tour[/I]

Re: Jim Rivers - Nubreed

Good to see new faces being given a chance, specially in this classic series. Never heard from the guy, but sure the video shows he's putting some good effort to deliver.

Re: Jim Rivers - Nubreed

You've never heard of Jim Rivers? Holy Moly. He's had releases on some of the biggest tech and prog labels out there. Bedrock, SAW, Misfit, Mouseville etc. Amazing producer.

Re: Jim Rivers - Nubreed

I fall into the same boat as nicomax, I don't know who Jim Rivers is either. This is a great reason to have the NuBreed series, to expose us to DJ's that some of us may never have gotten a chance to hear. I am very excited for this relaunch and the various DJ's that will be on the NuBreed label.

hmm? why would 18 and 19 tracks over 80 minutes be too many? especially if there are some that are just used as layers or vocal samples. in these days of ableton mixes, i'd expect a dj to put a bunch of tracks on a mix. if joris voorn can put 102 tracks on 2 disc comp and have it turn out incredible...

That's OK if the finished product sounds great. Just because you have the technology to do it doesnt mean you have to. Yeah you can have 3,4 or 5 tracks or samples playing at once but do you have to do it on every track. I'm not saying its rubbish, it just doesn't usually work for me.

I always found it funny

[quote="Danny Howells"]I know in the eyes of people like Hawtin that makes me a luddite because I’m not pulling each tune to pieces, but I really believe that if a record’s great it doesn’t need dissecting. Also it’s a bit of an insult to someone’s work if you’re gonna play their track and only use one bar of it! I love hearing how other producers arrange their music; it gives me inspiration for when I come to arrange my own. ![/quote]

He then went on to dissect 6 tracks on his last Mix Cd

Yeah when I saw that video, I saw at least 5 different arrangements that would have been SOOO MUCH BETTER than what they choose to use. I can't imagine Jim is too pleased that he looks like he's on the toilet.

So what does this tell you about the state of music?;)
