Underworld - Barking



Britains Karl Hyde and Rick Smith (Underworld) have been producing iconic electronic music for an astonishing 30 years. The release of 'Barking' on 13th September will be their first studio album in 3 years, and its packed full of goodness. We were treated with a teaser track 'Scribble' earlier in the year which received a whole lot of love from the music world, and got the nod of approval from avid Underworld fans. 

Written by Karl and Rick in their UK studio, the tracks selected for the album were then handed on to a variety of 'studio heads' to add some of their own style and creativity to the bands raw material (see track listing below)

This new 10 track release takes you on a nice journey from the ambient/chill sound of 'Louisiana' and 'Simple Peal' into that all to familiar house sound with 'Diamond Jigsaw' and 'Grace'. The diversity of Underworlds albums have always been their biggest appeal for me. 'Barking' showcases a range of genres, from house, breaks, drum n' bass, chill-wave and ambient. This collection of tunes is definitely worth checking out!
