Re: [underworld_remixes] -> _retrospective_commentary_
the 1990's
================================================== ==
another new decade of music, for another decade.

new wave was dying out, grunge was coming in,
rock was on the way out. and although some 80's
bands would still try to survive with some changes,
there would definitely be room for new sounds, new
categories, and entirely new genres.

i would be letting go of a lot of the old groups
i liked, and investigating a lot of new ones.

Underworld Mk2
--------------------------------------------------------
After a break—to concentrate on, among other things, art/design project Tomato—Hyde and Smith recruited DJ Darren Emerson and after several minor releases and remixes as Lemon Interupt and Steppin' Razor readopted the Underworld moniker. They produced danceable techno as a trio ("Underworld Mk2").

The addition of Emerson completed Underworld's techno/rock fusion and seemed to eliminate the pop elements in the original duo's work. Their first album, dubnobasswithmyheadman, was considered more accessible than the group's earlier material and crossed a large spectrum of dance music. The signature Hyde lyrics were in place: poetic, hypnotic and whispered; mixing conventional song writing with the use of found material from overheard conversations, answering machine recordings and the like. Hyde had been the lead singer in Underworld Mk1 but the original Hyde/Smith dance material was lyric-free as was most of the electronic music emerging from the aftermath of acid house.
