Underworld - Drift

[Soloman Tump]

Pearls Girl is my favourite Underworld track, and this 26 minute stretched out dubby version is AMAZING

 

I will be getting tickets for whatever "special" tour they are announcing tomorrow (assuming its UK...)

Holy Moly - A 6 CD & Bluray beast awaits: https://store.underworldlive.com/cart/product.php?id=46262

(or a single CD highlights package - https://store.underworldlive.com/cart/product.php?id=46253 )

Snapped up a box. Wish they’d come to the USA...

[Soloman Tump]

Box and T-shirt ordered.

Will be getting a standing ticket for Wembley tomorrow! Woop

Custard Speedtalk and This Must Be Drum Street are beauties

[Soloman Tump]

Exciting times for Underworld fans, this feels like their "NTS" sessions box set.  I just read they are only half way through releasing the Drift music, so there is plenty more to come!

Wembley Arena looks like a pretty massive venue, I have been to the Stadium (saw Foo Fighters there years ago) which was very impressive.

Huge victory lap for the boys. What a great way to release new tunes too.

^ I figure that's the case, which I'm all for. Would love to see this as maybe a CD boxed set with some artwork, back-story for some of the tracks etc (lots of the music and videos feature other artists, different locations etc). 

 

I'd shell out for it.

I knew it

Yes this is pretty damn special. 

They are reminding the world that they are still the masters.

 

also, Drift is nearing AFX SoundCloud dump levels of awesomeness.

Yeah, no.

It's been great - but think of how much music Aphex put up, for free.

the quality of the drift stuff is really high though, this isn't just old stuff recovered from a dusty HD, there's clearly a lot of love here

Implying the quality of stuff from the SoundCloud dump wasn’t high? Them’s fighting words!  

I like underworld a lot, and think this drift stuff is really excellent, but I don’t think it’s near the quality or quantity of the pages SoundCloud dump. But that’s just like, my opinion, man. 

[beerwolf]

Anyone who can sing the lyric ‘do you wanna buy my car’ sound utterly, effortlessly, brilliantly cool is a genius IMO.

Up there with their best.

[Soloman Tump]

Yeah its an awesome track.  It was an instant earworm simply from listening to the 60 second "trailer" they posted on instagram.  Well excited for the show and the box.

Push push push push

Moving onnnnnnn

 

New track is another groovy earworm

[Extralife]

Well well.

As part of this week’s installment they have made their Manchester Street Poem Score available for purchase. Essentially a brand new album of music.

It’s beautiful. Getting some Riverrun/100 Days Off vibes.

I love the whole thing but Meredith in particular is a beaut.

[beerwolf]

Just heard the latest ones Listen To Their No, Schiphol Test and Hundred Weight Hammer (which rings a bell, maybe I've heard it on the radio...)

Wow, what magic elixir are these guys drinking? 

[Soloman Tump]

Yes, a proper purple patch. Can't wait for this box set!

[IDEM]

Hm, release of the box set was supposed to be today, but Amazon informs me that shipping will be delayed until Nov 22. Anyone else get this?

[Soloman Tump]

I had to cancel my box order, sad times.  Trying to save $$££.

I did but I've checked other stores and they are saying Nov 1st

[Extralife]

Pretty sure I remember Underworld sending me an email saying it was delayed a couple weeks.
