Underworld will launch an extensive world tour this September 2007 with an exclusive New York City date presented by Made Event at Rumsey Playfield, Central Park on Friday, September 14th. This long-awaited tour marks their first stretch of U.S. shows since 2003. Live, the pair blend aural and visual elements into an unforgettable experience that more resembles a journey than a concert. ?Billowing chords, brooding melodies, thumping beats and vocals that crooned in one song and jabbed in another were all juxtaposed in Underworld?s two-and-a-half hour set,? said The New York Times. ?Mr. Hyde worked up the fans like a gospel singer.?
[Immediately following the Central Park show, The Official Underworld Afterparty will be held at Webster Hall with world-class DJs Danny Tenaglia & Lee Burridge and Border Community?s ? James Holden & Fairmont Live (Jake Fairley). Underworld plus Afterparty ticket package available for $70 at www.made-event.com. Come experience the new-and-improved Webster Hall and the unveiling of their new main room sound system, designed and engineered by Integral Sound.]
Side One Recordings will release Underworld?s fifth studio release Oblivion with Bells on October 16th. This will be the duo?s first studio album since 2002?s A Hundred Days Off. True to form, Underworld tread their own path through modern electronic music ? nodding to current trends but exhibiting an ?lan unmistakably their own. On Oblivion with Bells, the Underworld palette is richer than ever: epic techno nestles next to frail acoustics, beatific prose next to sharp, urban observation, amazing sound texturing mix with mobile phone recordings.
It?s been five years between studio albums, but Rick Smith and Karl Hyde haven?t exactly been idle. They have collaborated on a slew of projects including Underworld?s 1992-2002 anthology album, two major film scores (Anthony Mingellas? Breaking and Entering and Danny Boyles? 2007 Sunshine), a self-published typographic journal (In The Belly of Saint Paul), a series of pioneering digital-only releases, internet-radio broadcasts and a groundbreaking live web-tv broadcast and gig in partnership with Apple and Frankfurt?s techno giants Cocoon. All the while crafting the songs for Oblivion with Bells and gigging relentlessly around the world.
Border Community label head James Holden joins these electronic music titans with his own eclectic brand of electronic music. Over the years, Holden has evolved into a pioneer and visionary - from his early trance prodigy days at Oxford, he has morphed into a serious artist that can crossover from pixie-trance to leftfield dance music, new wave house to melodic techno, all the while maintaining a universally appealing nature. On his own approach to his debut artist album ?Idiots Are Winning?, he says, ?What I want to do is make electronic music that feels more human and more live ? just letting the machines malfunction and me be barely in control of them.? He continues, ?You just need to know where to inject the life into it, and how to, and then the computer can become an instrument just like any other.? James' own DJ sets embrace the same spirit of eclecticism as his productions, uniting his own tracks and remixes with acid house, techno, electro and downtempo melodies. Now with his own label and its unique imprints and a worldwide touring schedule including; I Love Techno, Sonar 2007, and Cocoon Ibiza, Holden is quickly carving his own unorthodox, indelible niche.
