DESCRIPTION:
2x12" Tech / Tech House / Minimal Techno - GU presents Unique, twelve of the most exciting producers in electronic music today, who have each created exclusive tracks for this release.
With music from Tinlicker, Giorgia Angiuli, Sasha Carassi ft. Mz Sunday Luv, Magit Cacoon, Fur Coat & Final Request, AFFKT, Emanuel Satie, Florian Kruse, Gai Barone, EdOne, James Harcourt and Kamilo Sanclemente.
Global Underground's ongoing Unique series jettisons the mixed, DJ-focus format of their other popular compilations in favour of brand-new, full-length tracks from, in their words, "some of the world's most exciting producers". There's certainly much to set the pulse racing throughout, with highlights including the breathless, trance-inducing throb and constant build of Jerome Isma-Ae's 'Perception', the swelling tech-house-goes-progressive vocal fun of Einmusik and Ash Nova's 'I've Been Changing', the sun-bright, melody-driven loveliness of 'The Purpose' by Trilucid and Brett Gould, the ultra-deep, soft-touch deep house wonder of Paul Roux's 'Kids', and the classically uplifting 21st century progressive house soar of Spada's 'Smoked'.

The term Various Artists is used in the recording industry to designate releases featuring contributions from multiple performers. It commonly appears on compilation albums or collaborative recordings where no single artist attribution applies. On digital platforms such as Last.fm, tracks may be listed under this designation when individual artist information is missing or incomplete in metadata, resulting in automatic grouping under the generic label.
In some cases, singles credited to Various Artists are issued for charitable purposes, particularly when performers collaborate under a collective project name. Examples include Band Aid with the song "Do They Know It’s Christmas?" and USA for Africa with "We Are the World".
Various Artists is also used as a performance alias by German musician Torsten Pröfrock, founder of the DIN label. In addition to this name, he has recorded under several other aliases, including Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, and Traktor. He has collaborated with Robert Henke and has been a member of Monolake since 2004.
The name was also used by a short-lived punk band formed in Bristol by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key, originally from Birmingham. Other members were involved simultaneously in Art Objects, which later evolved into The Blue Aeroplanes; the Key brothers also contributed as songwriters and participants in that project. After the group disbanded, the brothers formed Either / Or.
The designation Various Artists is also commonly applied to musical theater soundtracks, reflecting recordings that feature multiple cast members or ensemble performances within a single track.
