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 [from wikipedia]
=============================
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underworld_(band)

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.

Ah, ok - I was worried for a second that I missed some version of Dirty Epic that Faded into Dirty Guitar. Glad to know it's just a shortened edit of Dirty Guitar

in fact it's probably one of the most played songs

Was this sarcasm? I can think of only two recorded shows they played it, and they were both (extended) interludes during the 1998 early Beaucoup Fish tours.

Besides "Dirty Club" of course.

A test of pre-1990s groups, and styles. More detail will be added.
(some fine tuning of styles also)
