Steve plays Underworld's fourth album from1996 in full.

The record was the second released by the second iteration of Underworld, known as Mk2, with Darren Emerson working alongside Karl Hyde and Rick Smith. Despite being released in the same year as the song that's become synonymous with the group, Born Slippy, this track did not feature on the album's original tracklisting. On the album's 73-minute runtime the group flexed their musical muscles, showing the full range of their raving abilities - an ambition shown by the opening track, the three-part shape-shifting suite Juanita : Kiteless : To Dream of Love. It would be the year that took Underworld to new levels of success, partly thanks to Born Slippy and Trainspotting, but also thanks to this exceptional record.
