FAO: Darren, Rick and Karl: Can You Feel This Bass?

[BrotherLovesDub]

Hello Boys,

as you can see, we're still disecting your Cocoon gig. can you please elaborate on the 2nd track, with the "Can You Feel This Bass" vocal. one of your liason's stated that the song was written by Mr. Price for use by Underworld. Is this true? Is it an Underworld song? Have you sorted a title? What state is the track in? Finished, almost finished?

Details please.

Thank you!

If true, that would seem to place it in the same class as Morrocan Meatballs, Aquafunk, and Hard Vibe.

I think it is simply an Underworld "live show", between-song interlude like they've written/performed live so many times in the past (i.e. morrocan meatballs, aquafunk, small conker and a twix, etc...), but it could possibly have been written by Price for them as well!

IMHO

I really hope some of that stuff finds it's way to the new album (or maybe another riverrun release?). The more banging techno sound is a nice addition to the more subdued sounds of the recent new Underworld stuff.

Thing is almost every other track was a record by another artist, NOT an Underworld tune. So you probably won't hear a lot of it on the new album.

If you look at the Cocoon setlist you'll see this, UW seem to be going back to something a bit like their Underworld Sound System they were doing at Glastonbury back in 1992.

[King of Snake]

yeah but i was talking about the UW tracks mentioned by TheBang (see quote in my reply)

[TheBang]

So, is the song name "Cool Breeze SoundSystem"? Or is that maybe some unreleased Darren Price album? The file itself has no tags besides the filename "CanufeelD1". I'm leaning towards "Cool Breeze SoundSystem" being the track name, as it's more creative and sounds pretty cool.

BTW, if you rename the file with a .m4a file extension (instead of mp4), it should be recognized as pretty much just an AAC file by your favorite music player.

i think the song name is "Can You Feel This Bass?" -- that seems like the obvious answer to me at least.

[BrotherLovesDub]

yes, true. however, it's been attributed to Darren Price, yet distributed through Underworld Live. I've tagged it as being by Underworld. it sounds much better than any single song Price has done on his own (to me at least) so i'm crediting UW with the track.

[TheBang]

Well, the composition is by Darren Price. That much is clear. However, it's become quite the live staple, much like Shake That Higher (another Price composition). I just tag it as Underworld.

But my question really is, what is the name of the song? The caption on underworldlive.com reads "Darren Price, Cool Breeze SoundSystem (Can u Feel This Bass?)"

[the real stuff]

this doesn't sound like Underworld to me ... at all. It's distinctly different in style. I doubt they had much to do with the track.

edit: I see this has been established already, heh.

I'd say it sounds pretty much in line with all the other price songs uw are playing live at the moment.

From Darren's myspace page:

His new solo recordings which he plays live with Underworld include the ever popular Yardbeat (with Darren's own vocals!), Shake That Higher and the tracks he wrote for the Cocoon Club jam and broadcast Circus Faker and Can You Feel This Bass.
so BLD, tag all you want, but you're wrong. :P

[potatobroth]

the song is called, "Can You Feel This Bass?"

[BrotherLovesDub]

yeah, snake, you're right, i'm wrong. i think CYFTB is a killer groove and have fingers crossed it is a set staple when they tour the US.

[TheBang]

the song is called, "Can You Feel This Bass?"
Yeah, sounds like it. So what is "Cool Breeze SoundSystem" then? Darren Price album?

[dubman]

i think it should have stayed as a transitory live thing. it's a nice enough number hearing a studio version, but meh.

I think it's good enough for a studio version and release, especially for DJ's to use. The only thing that's bothering me, why is there that Rez beep somewhere in the middle? Couldn't they think of something original?
