Last month, dance music’s most prolific pioneers Underworld announced the new track ‘denver luna’ - an enchanting acappella curve-ball accompanied by the Jon Gorrigan directed video (here). Today they share the fully-formed, amplified version, delivering eight minutes of pure Underworld magic from the minds of Rick Smith and Karl Hyde.

Both versions work to show the creative duality of Underworld. One slots into the other seamlessly. The acappella provides intimate clarity on their idiosyncratic lyricism and vocal melodies. The full-length, complete version takes you on a musical journey. It pulls memorable stylistic notions from the classic Underworld with driving, immersive force while morphing its infamous sound into something new and fresh. Invigorating and vital, it continues to cement Underworld as the pioneer of the UK electronic music scene.
