Underworld

DRIFT Series 1 - Sampler Edition

£27.99

Released: 1st November 2019. What is 'DRIFT'? It's precisely one year inside the minds of Underworld. It's a journey that began on 1st November 2018 when the group released the track 'Another Silent Way' and set off with no map, no fixed destination and a simple mantra ('Drift is the opposite of 'normal' or 'usual' practice; we'll do this until we're dust.') 'Rick Smith and Karl Hyde's aim was to create and publish music and film episodically for 52 weeks and see where the journey took them. Within a few weeks, the experiment found its own path, prompting the electronic pioneers to react to previous releases and create new works accordingly. Over time, the duo's innate curiosity opened up a unique space in which they could experiment, learn and explore new frontiers - together and with others (including Tomato's Simon Taylor, Australian improv-trance band The Necks, techno producer O [Phase], Japanese noise band Melt-Banana, economics writer Aditya Chakrabortty and members of Black Country, New Road). During the 52 weeks, five self-contained episodes were released (respectively in November, January, March, May and August) - collectively, they formed 'DRIFT Series 1'. This carefully picked single disc sampler guides the listener straight through the centre of the project.
