Beckinsale was great in this but I was peeved that they never revealed who Barbara was (the werewolf, maybe).

$21.78 incl shipping to get that sent to the US, no thanks

You can hear Eventually But 2h25m into this Lauren Laverne show:

Also a new track called 'I Remember' at 1h55m when Karl sat in for Gilles Peterson last week

man I would totally not mind if they released an entire album that sounded like "Motorhome"

what if as a concept they made that album and it only was played in a motorhome. you get on it, and it's just driving around places while you listen to the album

Breaking And Entering soundtrack is one of the best things they've ever done. Beautiful music.

luna luna luna luna
luna luna luna luna

I'm just now getting around to the DJ Koze mix of "I Exhale" and I don't know if it's right place, right time or I'm just in a MOOD but srsly at this very moment this is the best fucking thing in the world

wait there's a what

Can't get into this on the whole, but Motorhome is lovely, and a bit... Beatlesy?

I don't know about Beatlesy, but I really love how that track develops.

So, the NYT has an interview up with a dude named Jad Abumrad. I'd never heard of him before, but apparently he's a big deal in US media circles because of something called 'Radiolab'.
The following exchange caught on my attention:

What were you listening to when you started at Oberlin?
Bad techno. My musical taste goes high and low. I was into, like, Underworld’s “Rez.” It’s like the best techno song ever made, still. It’s horrible music, but legitimately an amazing song.

Can anyone parse this strange statement for me?

Musical self-loathing snobbery?

where can I pillory this man

was under the impression from earlier in this thread that they were doing more straightforward sets these days but they're doing a facebook livestream right now from amsterdam and it feels basically as improvisational as everything everything—already heard radically different versions of "between stars" and "bruce lee" feeding into each other

maybe not this thread actually, but one of them

Watch here:

(They have basically done straightforward track pause track pause track sets for quite a few years tho. Would be great if they go back to the improv continuous mix days)

I would be delighted to know that Underworld are a great live act again! Someone on the Underworld forum said they were recording the set, hope it ends up somewhere accessible.

so far this show has been extremely continuous

I wonder if they've ever played a set where they haven't done Rez/Cowgirl?

Still sounds amazing mind

Ok. This is fantastic

wish i were there

oh well i'll settle for a desk rave

I think the recent ones are relatively continuous but don't vary much? As in, they have a little leeway, but two sets of equal length will have the same songs in the same order, with the mix being about the same

ah yeah that's prob what's happening here

whatever this song they're currently playing is is wonderful

I should be listening to that stream but instead I'm cherrypicking my favorites across the albums and grinning like a madman

oh it was "air towel"!!!! wow

the live arrangement of "low burn" is improbably beautiful

stream died in the midst of "king of snake," rip

sssssssnaaaake

more like "sssssssnaaa-"

twenty four hours

A recording of the Amsterdam show can now be found at your favourite file sharing sites

it has been on mixcloud all this time btw - and they've given us King Of Snake without the cut too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvMqR4X3TQI

I just wanted to share that my sons were running around the house last night shouting "LUNA LUNA LUNA LUNA/I LOVE THIS" completely unprompted
