JAMES LAVELLE / VARIOUS ARTISTS GU37: Bangkok (2009 UK limited edition 30-track 2-CD album set - It's been a long five years since UNKLE's James Lavelle released his second mix album for GU from Romania. It followed his series debut from Barcelona, which was hailed at the time as one of the finest and most timeless albums to come out of Global Underground in years. On Bangkok, James has put together an electronic sonic soundscape that is his most eclectic yet, it features exclusive tracks and remixes from UNKLE themselves plus the likes of Radiohead, Radio Slave, Carl Craig, James Holden, Doves, Layo & Bushwacka, X-Press2, Innervisions [Henrik Schwarz / Ame / Dixon featuring Derrick Carter], School of Seven Bells, Nathan Fake, Evil Nine, Mystery Jets, Fergie and Animal Collective plus many more. There are certain mix albums that remain on top of the pile, and this is definitely one. Ticking all boxes, it's one to kick back and listen to at all times, not just a made-for-the-club album.
