Hyde, Karl - Edgeland

NEW VINYL LP ON UNIVERSAL 2013.

2 X 180 GRAM VINYL.

Having partnered with musician Rick Smith in the new wave group Freur and the stadium electronica group Underworld, vocalist Karl Hyde hit his creative stride when he discovered a writing style akin to William S. Burroughs' "cut-up" method, where repurposed phrases, overheard bits of conversation, and surreal incantations formed the bulk of the group's lyrics. Put the throbbing beat of techno underneath and you've got transcendent rave music that's over the top, bonkers, and worthy of reality-ripping films like Trainspotting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Hyde
