If you can find the clip of them doing it it's got that ecstatic vibe... They were clearly pumped and the audience would have been too. Such a tune. So many tunes from that era are still epic.

I found a video from recent years but haven’t found one from back in the day. I’ll have a search. Faithless “God is a DJ”, is another one. I’ll never forget photographing them at the Homelands festival about 20 years ago, just off stage, I was taking photos at 120 BPM!
I really must download my old files from the old external drives I’ve got.
I never met Underworld unfortunately but did Groove Armada.
We used to listen to Faithless Sunday 8 am all the time. We had it on mini disc. Lucky you saw them. If you can't find the Jamie XX/Underworld let me know. I remember Groove Armada well but haven't purposely listened. Mezzanine still gets a listen as we have it on vinyl and it's still so sublime.
There are those tracks that you’d listen to over and over. I’ll always remember one particular company I worked for, where one of the contractors had set up an MP3 folder on the network drive and invited us all to check it out. It was full of gems, Faithless, Underworld etc.
Mezzanine on vinyl! I’ve been keeping my eyes out for those at record shops. I must go on a crate digging tour soon!
Couldn’t find the JamieXX gig, was it at the Boiler Room last August?
Last year I briefly met Portishead’s Adrian Utley who had collaborated with ModCaf just before I joined them. We ran a preview screening at a local cinema and he came down from Bristol to support it. I may have written about that on hive but can’t recall.
