Okay already...now enough with the solo stuff...get it together!
 

Although both are great diversions...neither Edgeland or Trance can touch stuff like 'DIS:

I didn't know what to expect when I clicked, but this brought a huge smile to my face :)

Loved Edgeland.
Loved Trance.
Loved loved loved the Olympics.

But yes. Absolutely yes. Gonna slip that DVD in right now.

Re: Okay already...now enough with the solo shit...get it together!
 

Truly.

Any material from these two, solo or otherwise, is eagerly anticipated! :)

Re: Okay already...now enough with the solo shit...get it together!
 

I need to see Underworld live at least one more time before it's too late....I really hope they tour close to where I live at some point. It sucks being in the States for good music.

Oh me, oh my, it is 2013.
I came to love Underworld around 2001-02.
Lots of things have changed since then, as right they should.

I have anticipated and endured the release of AHDO, OWB and Barking.
I watched the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympics and listened to the Frankenstein score.
I have Karl Hyde's "Edgeland" on CD. Working on Rick's "Trance".

Suffice it to say, this is not 2002. Or '03. It's '13.
Personally, i am a bit bummed that times have changed, i've hit my mid 30's, and UW have taken to a hiatus of sorts, though the solo output has been tremendous.

But that's just me. And if we get a new UW record in a few years, i will count myself lucky. Lucky for having learned of the band in the first place, for having soaked in their back catalog, for being fanatical about their output for a decade or more, seeing them live once (NYC, 2007), and enjoying the ride...hopefully for many years.

P.S. A couple years ago, i asked a question that was answered on an Underworld radio show: "Will Underworld continue with different people?" Karl said yes. Rick called me lovely. It was a fine day. I think Barking came close to spirit of the Q. Naturally, i wish i was a full fledged member, laboring alongside R&K&D... but hey- output is output! I dream of more....

Re: Okay already...now enough with the solo shit...get it together!
 

wouldn't it be fascinating if underworld just continued on, sort of like a symphony or vocal group, with members changing in and out for decades?

i got into UW in 2003 with AHDO, it's weird, now i don't ever listen to that one. it's 92-97 for me all the way, and occasionally a touch of the riverrun.

Re: Okay already...now enough with the solo shit...get it together!
 

I dunno, a lot of what I love about this band is the bond and friendship between R&K. I LOVE watching the 2010 KCRW set cause they're both slightly under the weather and you just get to watch two old friends do their thing together and come up smiling and grinning at the end. It's a beautiful and wonderful thing to me and I'd miss it quite a bit with others in there.

Patience, friend! They'll drop the melody back into the beat when it is good and ripe! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1JF1W_i0-I

I figure this recent quiet can only mean they're working on something...


*turns out it's another one off mixed-media project none of us will ever partake in* :rolleyes:
