The beginning of UW mkII?

[mmm skyscraper]

'Faded Love' and 'Yours Faithfully' are the most mkII sounding songs on the 1990 demo. Lots of repetition of the lyrics and the music is cool, but still nowhere near the dubno sound.

Megadog 3 at Manchester Academey was the first with Underworld (in Manchester) this was 1993 November...not sure how many megadogs that there were before that, in London for example....

the key details are the time between the last MKI gig...(& the demos) and the first gig / recording with Darren...

i reckon that the DE meeting up was probably in very late 1991 or early 1992...with some action almost immeadiately that year...

I dont know if all know about that i will say, but for your information in the 1st album (dubnobasswithmyheadman) Darren emerson had not participed to the composition of tracks, but only he gives his help to choice the sounds of the tracks, in this period Darren was only a dj, but not a compositor .

This information i have it from Coda magazine , it's a french techno magazine, and i have the Num who have in the darren interview (in 1996), if ones of you understand french i can write the total interview here.

Sorry for my bad english

Aslo in this interview Darren said that rick is the most important persson of the band,

Just been updating the BSS collectable of the day, and its The Hump / ME today...

if this did indeed come out in around 1992, i've just remembered (discovered again) that it contains the details:

'remixed by Steppin Razor - Emerson & Smith'

this detail is on the 'Hump' side....and NOT Mother Earth, as we assume that is left over from the old Mark I days....

also of note is that this 12" - the first of the Mark II era - contains the 'old' Underworld logo from the Underneath the Radar days, despite Tomato designing the label - the re-used the old Sire Undewrworld logo with the 'W' (pitchfork design)

so this release is probably the exact cross over point...using new graphics from Tomato, & the input of Emerson, but the existence of the older Mother Earth Track & Underworld logo...
