Underworld Biography
Mark II of the band debuted as Lemon Interrupt with the harmonica-drenched 'Big Mouth'. Underworld's breakthrough single, however, was the wonderful 'MMM...Skyscraper I Love You', released on Junior Boy's Own, perfectly encapsulating the chilled-out house movement. It was hailed as influential on the likes of Fluke, One Dove and Orbital, but many others have taken it as a signpost in the emergence of dance music in the 90s. Underworld mix live
instruments with their studio wizardry, expanded by an eclectic, often plain odd collection of samples. They confounded expectations by playing live on the MIDI Circus roadshow and are one of the few techno outfits actually to relish such activity, mixing live on the decks for a unique experience at each date.
