Underworld on the Spacemusic podcast
Being a fan of Underworld for at least 20 years now, we proudly present the new release "Barking" on our show! Soon after we noticed this new album we ran to our local store an bought it. Of course we did some pre-listening to the iTunes Store 30-second snippets before doing so...The album is good! Past, present and future come together during this 9 track story; Karl Hyde and Rick Smith have been in music production for 30 years, they know how to entertain us. And please, have a good listen yourself before judging. We have read reviews out there, some of them really good, unfortunately a bunch of reviews being completely untrue and not understanding the vibes that Underworld is so very keen on. The most funny review we found is posted by The Telegraph and it says: "There are a couple of vintage Underworld tracks but the album ends disappointingly with Louisiana, which is guaranteed to clear the dance floor". We think that The Telegraph simply don't get the story right here. The album "Barking" is not only about dance. And that's a good thing! It's not only about uplifting tracks, we can hear a story about the old, the new and what might be expected. The truth is, we are happy that Underworld is not doing the uptempo thing the entire album. There's other ways to go there and to fill the 'dance floor'all night long!
I like the Dutch review at dance.nl much better, saying "Ja, Underworld klinkt zeker nieuw; van rauwe techno tot meeslepende trance en ambient, en tegelijk meer pop dan je ze in tijden hebt gehoord. Geweldige plaat." In plain English that is: "Underworld sounds new; rough Techno to Trance and Ambient and more Pop than ever, great record".
After we bought ourselves the original digi-pack in the local record store in Rotterdam (PLATO) being the one including the DVD video clips, we decided to contact OM-Records in the US. Big thanks to James @ OM-Records for his enthousiasm and understanding. And yes... we've got official permission to play some pieces of the "Barking" way of life. The release with many collaborations, just to name a few: Paul van Dijk, Mark Knight and D. Ramirez. We're pretty sure our audience will like the taste of it.
