I wonder why they changed it to Parc... I mean, it's only one letter, what was the harm of keeping it as is?

because it was a song in progress....so why should they keep
the same name?

how many iterations of 'born slippy' were there?
'...'
telematic

where did the name darc even come from? maybe it was mis-heard or a messy scrible for a while? I dunno...

I like how there is a good version up on underworldlive.com though. Reminds me of a warm breeze blowing down by the river.

I have to agree with Jan that what we've heard on the radio and the website is what will be on the CD. Too much non-trivial effort was put into retooling it to just be a "preview" of the "proper" version.

It was the title of the MP3 file posted to the Members Archive on underworldlive.com. It was also referred to as "Darc" (quite clearly) by Rick on the Southampton broadcast. In fact, it's even in the tracklist:

So, it's clearly a name change.

they changed the name because the literal translation of Darc in Japanese is offensive or derogatory - hence the name change

no other reason

(as far as i have been told....)

Oh..

Well, that's actually quite logical. Thanks for clearing it up!

That's weird, because I don't even know what the literal meaning of "Darc" is in English.

So.... What's it mean?

hahah i have no idea...

perhaps when its pronounced in japanese, it sounds offensive, rather than reads as offensive...

either way i think in Engish its just a 'poor' spelling of Dark, hence Parc (Park)

this was the reason given to me anyway...
