I wish Underworld would incorporate jazz infections more often - this traxk is kind of an outlier as such, as they've really only taken that route a few times before. Obviously there's the first segment of "Cups", the oft-forgotten "Beebop Hurry", a few hints in "Ova Nova" and "Iron Bones", as well as the collaborations with The Necks (though those guys are operating under a drastically divergent genre rubric) ... but that's pretty much it; Freur recorded some jazzy cuts like the conveniently-titled "Jazz is King" & "Jazz Bain", but only one or two were ever officially released (which describes a surprising proportion of their entire output as a band). An entire album solely dedicated to expounding upon "Cups", "Beebop Hurry" and "Darc" (or is it "Parc"? 🧐) sounds like a recipe for a certified classic - but hey, I'm just some pathologically-obsessive guy on the internet. Fun to imagine what a jazzy UW album might sound like. They actually summoned a trumpet player for the "Hundred Days Off" B-side thsg deserves far more recognition, "Like a Swimmer", it would be awesome if they did that more often!

This circuitry will guide you far...❤

I can’t get enough of the palpably “urban” atmosphere of this, and all other permutations of “Skyscraper”. Somehow through their prudent selection of synth patches, samples and drum beats they flawlessly capture the feeling of venturing through a vast cityscape. You can almost _SEE_ the grey concrete, the overwhelming throng of people the glistening exoskeletons of steel and glass. And you can hear the endless cacophony of car horns and that inexplicably calming ambient sound-mass of thousands of overlapping conversations, hundreds of vehicles going place-to-place, and beneath it all the faintly audible chorus of winds coursing between the skyscrapers.

*MISSING* Name: Autotrader 1-3 Place of residence: Karl’s cassette player Last seen: In an ancient cardboard box in the basement of Rick Smith’s studio Identifying attributes: Unknown; rumours state that they appear to have no obvious connection to the elusive Autotrader 4; conspiracy theories postulate the existence of two other potentially relevant individuals, Autotrader 5 and Autotrader 6 If seen, immediately seize them and then forcibly upload them onto RUclips. Reward: A lifetime supply of Sappys curry with snazzy cups to eat or from , pizza for egga, hand-sewed air towels, little speakers and glam buckets with which to carry them, endless leather-bound dirty epics, luxuriously comfortable ancient phat farm coats, enchanted custard that makes you speedtalk. jumbo dark trains that can pull off some beautiful burnouts, a tree and two chairs… and loads of birds, for some reason 😁 Show less

This track feels like a B-side from „A Hundred Days Off“, but with a sinister presence lurking in its lugubrious waveforms. That filter on Karl’s voice makes it sound like he’s reciting some dark incantation; the tribal drums really add to that ritualistic vibe. There’s also a twangy guitar buried in the mix - only audible when wearing headphones, which also reveals how dense the overall texture is - which seems to signal that hope is not yet lost, and Karl will soon return to his cheerful countenance (not sure about that Rick fella though... xD)

The most stridently experimental track of the trilogy, and considering how divergent from „typical“ Underworld - if such a thing exists xD - the „Riverrun“ EPs are that’s saying quite a lot! Took me ages to appreciate this track, and now ! I really dig it; way they’ve blended Karl’s muffled vocals with the bass section. And Rick’s beloved tribal-Style drums that were so prevalent during the „A Hundred Days Off“/„Riverrun“ era always enhance the vibe! My only criticism, is that like a few other Riverrun segments it’s too short! If only they’d release extended stand-alone versions like they did with „Back in the Fears“, „Peach Tree“, „Play Pig“ and „Ancient Phat Farm Coat“.

A surprisingly contemplative conclusion to the most boisterous and abrasive instalment of the „Riverrun“ trilogy. I just wish they’d released an extended standalone mix as they did with „Back in the Fears“, „Peach Tree“, „JAL to Tokyo“ and a few others. As is the short duration is such a tease! xD

They should do another River run trilogy, with the same crazy nonconformist approach, they reign supreme over the intersection of weird and wonderful electronica, indomitable masters of strangeness boogie, avantronica.

Pure evil on a K trip..

Probably the most rudimentary track they've ever done. It's sufficient as an interlude - though IMHO a shorter duration, say 1:20, would've been preferable - but as a standalone track it's incredibly nondescript; it's hardly an exaggeration to state that anyone could've made this, and it wouldn't have taken long either. I don't hate it, I just believe they could have filled the time that this track occupies with something a little more engaging.

Peak Underworld.

glad i found this, this version deserv to be listened and conserved!

Good funk

Great track.....first time in me ears.

Robert : Motto Brot wird zum Problem Glauber eher weniger das Adrian dem zustimmt Tut uns leid aber schwer umsetztbar das er wieder als Security guard für Motto Brot arbeitet da er das schwer wollte

Andjelkovic Dennis : sexpartys mit schwarzen wo die schwanzlänge bedeutsam ist dafür brauchen sie auch ein Security guard

Andjelkovic Dennis: Für Sex ein Security guard für Sex braucht Motto Brot (Kann gerne weiter in die Tiefe gehen)

Motto Brot braucht einen neuen Security guard

Die wenigsten wissen dass das zensiert ist

This goes well with Ketamine...

These guys, I think sometimes they are out of this planet. So good, so well produced!

JAL TO TOKYO, , part of "Lovely Broken Thing", the first mix in a series called "The RiverRun Project" by British electronic music band Underworld, released online in 2005. ruclips.net/video/0Sf8lKbXcaU/видео.html Lyrics, as follows: Refugee Rain One hand Come down between us I explained How good I feel And everything In my imagination You got the wrong end Misunderstanding Watching the sun rise Over the water Back in the fears Projection I discard Sleepless Ice in the apple juice Chrome around the coffee Loaded You get your legs waxed At 2:00am "Ohh!" That's so lovely Here comes The cappuccino girl The dark red line around your lips girl Too many late nights Girl Smiling Clutching your finger tips She let me sit alone Let me gather fragments Like a bone Stone Let me sit with the fear Let it slip off me Roll past and off me I've been carrying it all day Delicate finger cup girl Do Do you need a ride? Random breath Pure siren inside Double detrimental Perfection Superfood Gather at the dark bridge A crossing above our heads Above us Descending into the Real men eat meat and chicken Not beef crusades Crusades for truth and justice Home truth Home twin Tribulation Turbulent and fast Fast moving fingers Your hiss in my ears again "I'm just behind you girls" he says Shakin' in the air Strapped in And rockin' Covering your eyes and lips rubbed with fingers You make the sign of lock and key You nod and smile Leaning into the wind she call "Benny!" "Benny!" "Benny!" "Benny!" She pull the snake bag Movin' at speed Curse Cursing her heels Tangled air Mr Cashman King bridge What's on? Royal hot fresh star water star boy Wait Waiting for a green light Waiting out for a green man Bang the pole and here it comes She's on the in-line blades a blind girl Blonde Playing dancing queen On an accordion Black dog Grey dog Everybody got their dogs Tied up to a wall See See the penguin girl Selling the boat trips to tourists Lycra boy in a blue hat walkin' Walkin' tight rope for money She Was wandering around in this nothing But this little white silky he said Skimmer clocks The Dali The Japanese girls A long way from home In tats and pokeys Waiting for a green man banging the pole "Oh my god!" she says I feel weightless And funkfish I-In In Memphis cladding Chocolate boutique I'll give you one I'll give you everyone Black-out tang Get behind the shot you think You think I'm an idiot A fresh boy Moses Can you cut it Cherry pickers waiting for a Waiting for a memory they want They want to get it on They want to get the juice That'll set them free I'm your bare brass boy I'm skinny Side cup Overdone and touched I'm under touched Mom! Mom! Mom! The picture's finished A little girl's playing for money For a junky mother eyes Eyes behind glass Black glass Hello my name is Bernadette HI hope you like my music Have a nice day Then the rose Seller The rose seller complains Complains about the weather Looking for another hobby man Eureka she's a crane A dome of pure cream This This floor is secured 20 19 There's a sweet smell in the hall Walking through the mouth of Luna Park The glove The glove goes on my pink faced fish The crystal club Insert your card Casino shopping Promenade So much Temptation Temptation she brings me black tea Black tea and memory Wrapped in the morning No no no no Offerings of everything Of energy This Summer's cheap A dollar ninety five When I When I was in New York She said Go for the looser fit You wont look as if you're trying so hard When she was She was trying harder Gap Gap on the shirt Gap in the head she married the wrong bloke He said I burn fire on the rock Making mark in the stone And red And red people animation Liquid on sticks And precious things I feel the wind I feel weird and black glass in my head Open Open Open Open Open Open Open Open

Kotz Daniel und kotz David : der kommerzielle Kuss von einem Trauma mit dem ist nix zu spaßen 👍👍👍

Dit is underworld ❤ old school keep on going

We can let it on Mars😨

For those who are interested, there are two "studio" versions of this track that I'm aware of, both from their Lemonworld broadcasts - have a listen here: ruclips.net/video/6rvod93DWqo/видео.html & ruclips.net/video/n-zusgiBgbw/видео.html (yes I know it's a channel plug but really, I just wanna spread the Underworld love baby! xD)

I never saw so many pathological clips in a band Yt. They look coming from screensavers collection of samples. Which song shows the classic green field and blue sky? Who's the engineer here?☹☹🥱

The bass line sounds like psycho killer by the talking heads....

*LYRICS:* (Sweet orange, nice geezer, Congratulations, I miss you, nice geezer, Sweet orange Congratulations...) Who's there? Who's there? Whoooo's there? (Manchester) God it's dark, and none in the rain God's dark and none in the rain Speed train - the number 3 Snoggers on the platform Leffe-numb* (???) blindin' Laugh it up, laugh it up Chopsy, chopsy** Reaching down, she raises her cellphone to her ear Brings a cool wind out of the wet night The drunk in his suit helped up the stairs by his gentle girl She sits him down, he looks dazed She raises her cellphone to her ear and laughs Reaching down, she takes his hand He rises as she leads him away Phone's still heard° here Cool gentle wind Cool gentle wind There's a slow train coming from the East And a fast one passing through from the West Snoggers sits alone, and opposite Bustling, green Mark's & Spencer's bag under their feet The peak-cap boy and three-stroke licky boy Feet up on the seat on the blue velveteen Green velveteen Boy leans into a girl with pink tights, pineapple hairdo Leans back away from him, looks confident The three-stroke licky boy looks down, yawning in an Arsenal cap Looks down and picks up his nails Going through the dark Getting home ...Stripelly-legelly boy 😁 *I was really uncertain about this part, it sounds like he's saying "Lithinum", like some mangled pronunciation of "Lithium", but the following "blinding" lyric made me think of alcohol, so I searched for a beer with a name like "Lithinum" or "Lithi", which led me to the popular Belgian pale ale "Leffe" - so I figured that Karl's implying that the "snoggers" are "Leffe-numb", aka wasted 😄 **"Chopsy" is a colloquialism used in Wales and the English Midlands region, meaning someone who "chopses" - ie, an obnoxious braggart. ° I'm really not 100% sure about this one, it sorta sounds like Karl slurred his words a little, combining "who" and "heard", so it sounds like "hoo-erd", but I think he probably meant to say "heard"... I'm probably wrong though

Nice
