“It’s Saturday night but I don’t feel like fighting, how about a little dance?” asked Karl Hyde as he bounced onstage.

This idea was warmly welcomed by the sell-out crowd of middle-aged ravers.

They put their hands in the air and danced, cheered and whistled throughout the two-hour set, some even waved glow sticks. It was just like being back in 1995… except for the receding hairlines and creaking joints.

This was the 20th anniversary celebration of the band’s debut album, dubnobasswithmyheadman. Sadly the other half of Underworld, Rick Smith, was absent due to a virus, so their long-term collaborator, Darren Price, took to the decks.

Karl Hyde was a charismatic singer; in trademark striped top his hip-thrusting dancing and growling stream-of-consciousness lyrics were captivating.

A simple but powerful monochrome graphic behind him showed the track name as the duo performed this seminal album in full.

The night came to a climax with a joyous bonus performance of the hit single, Rez; all ten fantastic minutes of it.

For the encore, the lightshow became a multi-coloured, disco explosion and Underworld finished with their best-known track from the 1996 film Trainspotting, Born Slippy.

Great party, happy anniversary dubnobasswithmyheadman!
