Underworld are a British electronic music group formed in 1987 in Cardiff, Wales and the principal collaborative project of Karl Hyde and Rick Smith. Prominent former members include Darren Emerson, from 1990 to 2000, and Darren Price, as part of the live band from 2005 to 2016.
After briefly performing as a funk and synth-pop outfit, resulting in two albums between 1988 and 1989, Underworld gained prominence after reshaping into a dance and techno band, releasing albums including Dubnobasswithmyheadman (1994), Second Toughest in the Infants (1996) and Beaucoup Fish (1999), as well as singles "Born Slippy Nuxx" and "Dark & Long (Dark Train)". Known for their atmospheric, progressive compositions, Hyde's cryptic and stream of consciousness lyrics, and dynamic live performances, Underworld have influenced a wide range of artists and have been featured in soundtracks and scores for films, television, and the 2012 Summer Olympics in London."Dark & Long" is a song by British electronic music group Underworld and the opening track on their third studio album, dubnobasswithmyheadman (1994). The band released a number of versions of the track, including the "Dark Train" mix made popular for inclusion on the hit soundtrack album for the 1996 film Trainspotting, and the 2021 "Drift 2 Dark Train" mix.
Dark & Long (Dark Train Mix) entered the UK Singles Chart at number 57 on 25 June 1994 for one week.[4]
The "Dark Train" mix of "Dark & Long" became best known due to its use in the 1996 film Trainspotting (that featured another Underworld track, "Born Slippy (.Nuxx))." "Dark & Long (Dark Train)" appears in a scene of when the main character Mark Renton is going through heroin withdrawal.
"Dark & Long (Dark Train)", as well as the "Darren Price and High Contrast Remix", both appeared during the athletes' march at the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics and on its soundtrack album Isles of Wonder.
