New Single: Scribble - Digital Download Out Now: Details here!
The first new Underworld music in two and a half years is available!

Described as a gene-splice between Yellow Magic Orchestra and Grooverider blasting out over the dancefloor at Fabric on a Friday night, Scribble is a writing and production collaboration with Hospital recording artist High Contrast. Scribble is the first track taken from Underworld’s forthcoming sixth studio album which is due at the end of the summer. Hope you like it.

Artwork: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...0L._SS500_.jpg

Here are the links to buy your digital download:
Juno (EU) (192kbps, 320kbps, WAV) €3.25 / €4.75 / €6.50 (extra €0.44/€0.51 for Paypal, extra €2.41 for a CD)
Amazon DE (256 Kbps MP3) €2.18

iTunes (UK) (256 Kbps AAC) £2.97
iTunes (US) (256 Kbps AAC) $2.97
Amazon USA (256 Kbps MP3) $2.89
Amazon UK (256 Kbps MP3) £2.37
7Digital UK (320 Kbps MP3, 320 Kbps AAC) £2.37 / €2.97
HMV Digital (UK) (320 Kbps MP3) £2.37
Napster US/UK (256 Kbps MP3 - CBR LAME 3.98)
Tesco UK (320 Kbps MP3) £2.37
Play.com (UK) (320 Kbps MP3)
Walmart.com (US) (256 Kbps MP3) $2.82
Beatport (US) (320 Kbps MP3 - LAME, 192 Kbps AAC, WAV)

The regular price seems to be $0.99 / €0.99 / £0.79, so anything cheaper than $/€2.97 / £2.37 is discounted. Juno is €1.25/€1.75 for 192/320kbps so its only recommended if you want the whole package in WAV.

The single package is available on Beatport (at least in the USA) for $5.97, and in uncompressed form plus $3 for "WAV handling" (yeah, i know i know). Due to country restrictions, only the Netsky remix is available in the UK or in The Netherlands.

The tracklisting:
1. Scribble (Album Version) 7:07
2. Scribble (Radio Edit) 3:52
3. Scribble (Netsky Remix) 6:20

Cheapest ways to get the single:
mp3: Amazon.de is €2.18 for the whole package
mp3: Underworldlive.com has the edit for free, to buy the other two versions costs €2.28.
WAV: Underworldlive.com has the whole package for €5.71, Juno is €6.50

The 3 versions are now all available in uncompressed WAV from the UnderworldLive.com shop. The instrumental seen on the promo is not available at all as yet, who knows when?

My original opinion on this is: Why does it have to be so difficult?
My new opinion: Why did this take so long and why was it broken for over a month during what should have been intense promotion?

Re: New Single: Scribble - Digital Download Out Now: Details here!
so do any of these channels offer non mp3/AAC versions?

edit
And why the fuck is the release on Beatport restricted ("not available in your territory")?
Who are they selling this to then?
I can only buy the Netsky remix!

iTunes and 7 Digital only offer compressed files. All the others are not available here in Holland.

Hey Underworld, I'd like to, you know, buy your music. Preferably not trough iTunes (yeah I know you guys love your Apples, but some of us are actually happy using Windows) and most definitely in an uncompressed format (FLAC, wav or aiff). I pay with real moneys. Why are you making this so hard for me?

Re: New Single: Scribble - Digital Download Out Now: Details here!
it does, but I do not want to have to install it in order to buy one track. And even then iTunes doesn't offer uncompressed files (AFAIK)

So these tracks were co-written and not just co-produced? My interest is waning.

Re: New Single: Scribble - Digital Download Out Now: Details here!
when you're making electronic music, "writing" and "producing" are pretty interchangeable. It's not like a rockband where the band will write the song and then take it to a producer to record it.
When High Contrast was adding beats to Scribble, he was writing as much as producing.

Ah. Ok, I was looking at it a little differently and hoping what you said was the case. Thanks KoS.

LOL @ this one:

Buy the 3 tracks for 70p each, or the full single for £7.95
