Global Underground 020: Darren Emerson, Singapore is a DJ mix album in the Global Underground series, compiled and mixed by Darren Emerson. The Mix is a retrospective look at a New Year's Eve set at the Zouk club in Singapore.
Emerson returns to GU, having become a prolific globetrotter in his post-Underworld era. Here he chooses to represent the exciting nightlife of Singapore, based around the legendary Zouk nightclub. The venue had carefully established itself as the leading destination for the world's top DJs in Asia, single-handedly turning the dynamic city-state into a firm favourite on the global clubbing circuit.
The mix was inspired by Darren's appearance at the club on New Year's Eve 2000, and as such has a definite party feel to it. The style is also less heavily techno influenced as his previous GU mix, with the more housey sounds found on his rising Underwater label coming through.
