To me Karl Hyde is the soul of Underworld - his voice, his poetry, and in t= his sense the later work is as good as the classics (anyone know "8-Ball"?)= . Not that I dislike the sounds. Though increasingly pop-ish, their style i= s still unique and interesting, and pretty far from mainstream, much of it = has a relaxing, even sexy vibe. I don't know if it is "IDM" but intellegien= t dance-music it certainly is. Man, I fuckin love Underworld, so I had to p= ipe in. (Incidentally one of the few "electronic" artists of "my" music tha= t most of my past girlfriends have not only tolerated but actually enjoyed.= ) Saw them in LA (Hollyowood Bowl) last June doing dubnobasswithmyheadman t= racks and a couple later ones.
