You can add Darren E's haircut + Rick's typical-of-the-era sunglasses to that list :p

I guess there is something out there - but something we'll probably never see.
I've been searching for this particular gig for ten years or so, so it's really great to finally get some material... even if a bit limited :)

As a service for those who can't stand the desynced audio & can't be bothered to download the whole thing, I present the goodies:

As mentioned in the video remarks, there are bits of Underworld spread throughout the whole video and when I find the time, I'll put the whole lot together in a single video. The same thing goes for some of the other artists in the video :) One of the more interesting bits is Karl talking about a planned event that had been cancelled, which apparently would include 'their' Soundfield Soundsystem(?!) as well as Kraftwerk and Megadog.

this was the name used for an early early UW live show, well... I guess it technically wasn't "their" show, more of a collaboration between several different dj's, artists, and musicians where they did a massive live jam that lasted something like 14 hours. And I think they had quadraphonic speakers set up as well (remember, this is pre- digital 5.1 surround blah blah)

I'm pretty sure it was done at Glastonbury, somewhere between 1992-1995

I wouldn't know for sure, as I hadn't even heard of Underworld at that time, and I didn't live in the Uk

experimental sound field info

edit: John Newsham is still with UW on their tours and is the super sound master you all praise for the fantastic live sound in the reviews we read here. And also he is behind Function One, the builder of the speakers UW uses. He's the friendly bloke with the reading glasses behind the mixingdesk you sure will have noticed during concerts.

Read the whole article where that pic is from:

John first met them as Freur in 1984. 24 years and counting. Does anyone know how long Haydn Cruickshank's been working with them? He's listed in the Everything Everything credits, so that's at least 10 years.

I realise I'm resurrecting an old thread, but in case anyone's interested, the whole Technomania documentary with english subtitles is on YouTube:
