UR - Live at the Limelight



Underground Resistance not only bought about an incredible change in Detroit's techno landscape but the rest of the worlds. Originally appearing with some lighter techno moments, not unlike those brought about by Kevin Saunderson and his KMS imprint, Mad Mike Banks and co went on to bring a dirtier heavy sound which can still be felt today.
Taking a militantly political ideal and rubber stamping it with effective imagery and even more effective bass, UR have created some of the genre's finest moments - see earlier post 'The Theory'
It has been said that UR are techno's equivalent to Public Enemy without the drama.
I think it's about time we had a revolution brothers.
