Best Of Underwater featuring Hertz – A Voice Of My Own

Monday, September 12th, 2011

The legendary Underwater Records celebrates 100 releases and more with a collection of its finest moments. Founded by Darren Emerson in 1994, originally as an output for himself and the artists he met along his travels, Underwater grew to become one of the most influential dance labels of the early noughties. Responsible for numerous worldwide hits such as Tim Deluxe – ‘It Just Wont Do’, Gus Gus – ‘David’ and many more, the list of producers on Underwater is impressive. The brand was responsible for four infamous Ibiza seasons at Pacha as well as 7 years at The End club in London. The culmination of the Underwater Records story in 2003 saw the label win the label of the year award in DJ Magazine.

Albums from Tim Deluxe, Gus Gus, Mutiny, Pnau, Sharam Jey, Magik Johnson and singles by Arthur Baker, D. Ramirez, Paul Woolford, Joel Mull, Smith & Selway, Paul Jackson and so many more are a testimony to how much quality has seen the light of day through the label. This compilation offers some of the seminal hits in never released before single and radio edit format on CD 1 and a mixed selection from Underwater recording artist Jamie McHugh of underground material released over the years.
