THE REVIEW

We are dancing, I look for her, she looks for him. She can't catch his attention, I take the opportunity and move closer. Suddenly a song starts, a song I've heard before... But maybe more, maybe it's a song that every guy already has in his soul, a song that brings everyone together. And at this point she doesn't care about him anymore... I'm a guy, she's a girl, around us other guys... The music moves around us, stretches and shrinks the spaces, faces get closer and without realizing it I find her tongue in my mouth and her hands caressing my body. At first timidly, then more freely I kiss her and cuddle her.

Evening over, she's gone, I "sad homecoming" head home, thinking back on those emotions.

The next day, after school, I rush to find a CD by Underworld that includes "Born Slippy" and I buy this limited edition. At home, I blast both CDs, right away, one after the other twice in a row. This is a record you can listen to alone, while dancing, at a party, while making love...
Underworld are not only one of the most important icons in the techno/electronic scene of the 90s, they are also one of the few groups that know how to bring new emotions with every listen, true geniuses, despite the genre's very commercial nature. This is a collection of their most important tracks, from "Rez" to "Cowgirl", to "Dirty Epic" up to "Two Months Off".

Anyone who has listened to "Born Slippy" even once in their life (and few haven't) has undoubtedly fallen in love with it... Since that night, I have another reason to love it. And may Caz have mercy on my soul.
