Underground Resistance: 008 The theory / Free as you want to be: UR
is back at their old game of seemingly irrelevant serial numbering.
They are calling this UR -008, but according to discogs, that number
is already occupied by the vision - gyroscope. The theory is a good
track. It certainly does sound like an older UR record because of the
spaced out vocals and bouncy bass lines that sound kind of similar to
transmat records. Anybody know the name of the equipment i'm talking
about? This track is really politically motivated, etched in the
inside run out gooves you will read " The needs of many are greater
than the needs of a few: or something, the vocals repeat that
sentiment. 313er ryan burns concurs that this record sounds a bit
dated BUT in a good way. I would recommend picking it up if you like
nation to nation, pre-industrial sounding UR. Free as you want to be
isn't as fun for me. Sounds kind of half completed, like the start of
a good track. Its only a few minutes long.
The Theory is an old track. This version originally appeared on Equinox
records and was also on the Revolution For Change CD/LP. The sample
'The needs of the many, outweighs the need of the few' is taken from a
Start Trek movie (The wrath of Kahn). The other sample where they talk
about the Genesis device is also taken from the same movie.
I love this track btw. this definitely one of my favorite UR tracks...

"I checked it very thoroughly," said the computer, "and that quite
definitely is the answer. I think the problem, to be quite honest with
you, is that you've never actually known what the question is."
