Underworld is a UK electronic music act formed by Rick Smith and Karl Hyde in 1987. After their former band disbanded, the duo released two albums of song-oriented funky guitar-based pop. In 1991, they returned with a new track-oriented technoid direction and welcomed DJ Darren Emerson as a new member. Their b-side "Born Slippy NUXX" gained immense popularity after being featured in Danny Boyle's film "Trainspotting" in 1996, becoming an anthem of the late 90s. Emerson left in 2000 to pursue a solo career, and Darren Price took over tour DJ duties before becoming a performing member of Underworld Live in 2005.

Originally released in 1999, and coming in the wake of the enormous success of the rave anthem and iconic Trainspotting track Born Slippy. NUXX, Underworld’s fifth studio album was their most anticipated to date. Unveiled to ecstatic reviews – one critic called it “electronica’s ‘Dark Side Of the Moon’” – Beaucoup Fish spawned the landmark singles Push Upstairs, Jumbo, King Of Snake and Bruce Lee plus fan favourite Moaner which had previously featured in the film Batman and Robin. To date it remains Underworld’s most successful studio album, with over one million copies sold. Newly remastered and fully endorsed by the band.

4CD - Super Deluxe expanded edition, fully approved and endorsed by the band and containing a host of special features. Housed in a bespoke 4CD box set with art and layout by the Underworld-affiliated design collective tomato, it includes the original album, related B-sides and mixes newly remastered plus unreleased tracks and alternate versions. The package also contains a tomato-designed book with a new essay.

2LP - Remastered by Abbey Road Studio’s Miles Schowell at half-speed for 2017, this gatefold 180 Gram 2LP edition plays at 45RPM for optimum sound quality and comes with a download code.
