As the name implies,TGU use a dance music asthetic as a backdrop to whoever is in the collective at any one time. The core duo of TimWhelan and Hamilton Lee invite various musicians from all corners of the globe and act primarily as a festival favourite, however their albums are fantastically genre busting and cohesive taking in Dub, Reggae, Afro-Beat, Techno, Hip-Hop and Asian beats.

Recommended albums: Backpacking On The Graves Of Our Ancestors (an early 'Best Of'),Impossible Broadcasting and latest release 'Moonshout'.
