I have my fingers firmly placed in my ears...
Underworld, in my opinion will be nothing without Darren Emerson - they were
already together, and doing nothing useful when he stumbled across them...
As for his DJ sets...he is hit and miss (a bit like that other odd boy,
Justin Robertson) - I've seen him about 6-7 times now...his first time was a
bit dodgy, but the 2nd time I saw him, Andrew Weatherall opened for
him...Andy did his usual: "OK kids, I'm gonna let you dance for about 60% of
this, then I'm gonna do some distortion/delay/echo thing with the sound
until you all get pissed off, then I'll drop a big hard track and you'll
cream your pants" set - which was great...Darren Emerson came on, and oooooh
baby....great stuff...nasty, grinding, noisey, and dancey as hell...
So, unless you want me to send the cyber-dogs around to your cyber-house,
don't be slaggin' the great Darren Emerson...
