Underground 2010 (Ministry of Sound)

While Ministry of Sound have been busily enjoying chart success with a series of front line club compilations including The Annual and Clubbers Guide to 2010, they are equally concerned with showcasing the latest underground tracks and emerging artists; important records from the frontline which represent the next step in the evolution of dance music. This is where the next installment of our acclaimed Underground series comes in, with The Underground 2010, a 2CD collection of tracks whose impact will be felt well throughout the year. This is not just another commercial house release this album brings you the next generation of house tracks from the most important artists fuelling the underground. Mixed by none other than house music's undisputed champion Afrojack alongside Australia's own home-grown talent, Bass Kleph, this forward thinking album brings you ear-to-ear with the producers, labels, remixers, and DJs who are truly shaping the direction of underground house music. Afrojack's rise to the top has been as quick as it is impressive. In 2006 with a little help from fellow Dutchmen Sidney Samson and Laidback Luke, Afrojack's first commercial release "Afrojack In Your Face" hit #3 in the spot in the Dutch dance Top 30...not bad for an 18 year old bedroom producer. Since then he has earned the formidable title "King of the Dutch" through his impressive collaborations with international luminaries including David Guetta, Diplo, Kid Cudi, Chuckie, Laidback Luke and Steve Angello.
