Last fortnight's launch of 'Lovely Broken Thing' - part 1 in Underworld's Riverrun Project - was a welcome surprise for Underworld fans embracing the digital music age. On December 7, we're in for another electronic treat as Rick and Karl provide us with a second taste of their musical pizza... uhm... project.
Pizza for Eggs is another 25 minute excursion through Underworld's warped mindset. This time it comes with a more down-tempo style. Deep drums, experimental ambience, strange use of the trademark vocals and a variety of soothing sounds make up this component.
On speaking about Pizza for Eggs, Karl said:"Maybe you've downloaded 'lovely broken thing' already, maybe you haven't, we're not waiting though. Here's the next installment 'pizza for eggs'. It’s same format as before, a 25 minute mix but this time with a tribal/dubwise feel and karl at his most "beatific". Also keep your ears out for some stunning remixes of tracks from this new collection and the previous one.
It is again to be distributed exclusively via underworldlive.com and this digital only release will set you back a fiver (pounds that is - £5).
Packaged with the music, comes 444 pictures taken by the band, access to the archive on underworldlive.com, and full release artwork.
Also keep an eye/ear/modem peeled for a series of remixes that will be released in coming months. Included is Paul Woolford's hot mix of "JAL to Tokyo" and other reworks from Martinez, Pete Heller, and Robag Wruhme.
When it rains it pours in the Underworld camp... that is for sure.
