==International recognition==
''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' has recognized Global Underground as the first DJ mix compilation to place high-quality photographs of DJs on the [[album cover]]s. This, it further asserted, played a part in turning DJs into [[superstar]] figures within the culture of [[electronic dance music]].<ref name="billboard">{{Citation | last=Mason | first=Kerri | date=17 June 2006 | title=BeatBox: Wink with a Nod to Compilations |
[[Thrive Records]] was the U.S. distributor for some of the early Global Underground releases. Global Underground albums had an alternate numbering sequence and had different artwork, but were otherwise the same.

===GU Music===
In 2003, the Global Underground franchise began their "GU Music" imprint. Up until this time, they were strictly a label that dealt in DJ compiled and mixed CDs. GU Music allowed Global Underground to get into full length artist albums and Vinyl/CD/MP3 single releases. The GU Music team commented: "Having nurtured some of the worlds finest DJs we have applied this expertise to original music, cherry picking the coolest future talent from across the globe..." They have featured releases from such artists as [[UNKLE]], [[Lostep]], and Trafik. In 2007, it expanded with the release of the compilation GU Mixed which started a series of the same name that consisted of music sought from GU Music.{{citation needed|date=July 2020}}
