the Audion one is the best in a while... although anathema for most people on here.

yeah, we just don't get that kee-razy microhouse shit!

I'm looking forward to the Audion one.
The Mayer + Radioactive man would be my picks they both blew me away at the time. I'm keen to check out the global communication one too.

obviously it's not that you don't get it, Vahid. your opinions on 'microhouse' are perfectly valid, and far more nuanced than my own. but... being presumptuous, maybe a full appreciation is a little outside your frame of reference. there can't be many (any?) good all night minimal events in the US, let alone ones with good enough soundsystems or atmospheres (i.e. not New York) to be fully enjoyable. (plus, Villalobos boycott.)

I agree with Vahid, the Diplo one kinda stinks.

There's a maybe three- or four-track section that's pretty awesome though, when it goes from "This is Sick" into "Love Guide" into "What's Your Fantasy" and then into one of the carioca tracks whose name I can't remember.

the irony is that audion is an american artist! so where'd he learn to spin minimal?

i like the 1st CD of Craig Richards Fabric 15 and the new Carl Craig one (except for the jamz in the middle)

Dog have you checked the carl craig beats in space mix? Its tight.

Re minimal in America - the We Are Robots crew in NYC put on some pretty good stuff, although not always minimal. They've had Dapayk and Konrad Black (who is Canadian?)

fourteen years pass...

Historically, the Michael Mayer one has always been my favourite but I've been adoring the Aim one recently (I've always liked it but it has made its way off the shelf to regular play).

Might have banged on about this in other threads.
