Drift Ep. 3, Part 1 - Dune

[taotsu]

At this point, and after listening over and over, I do believe that Are You Rockstar should be serving as an official intro / precursor to Dune. Make it track one, Dune track two. It just fits, while not perfectly, well in my ears.

You know the bit where he sings the word, "Dune"? Am I the only one joins in with, "You chased the day away! High noon! The moon and stars came out to play!"?

It's been a while since an UW track got me to stand still for a long duration of time. This track just drifts perfectly. I've always loved Sola Sistim... but this track has replaced it as my fave UW chill track.

Drift 3 seems to be much in sync with Edgeland to me, especially Karl's vocals. Especially Dune and Custard Speed Talk. Anyone else hear it?

there's a drift playlist underworld appear to have created on spotify.
it has 2 versions of dune. the "single" version is over 11 minutes long.
what (if any) are the differences in the versions?

Discussed in the EP thread. Basically, just the solo drum ending was trimmed.

Did we ever find out who sings the female backing part in this?

The box set liner notes reveal that it's Mika Hyde, Karl's youngest daughter.

I've only just discovered this track on the boxset (what in the world was I doing back in March?). This is just gorgeous. One of my favourite Underworld songs ever, it's just sublime. Wish it ran for thirty minutes.
