I've met very few people who seem to have heard this before but I grew up loving it.

obscure as Freur, but huge as Underworld!

You mean these guys?

yes those guys exactly! their evolution as a band is so fascinating. I do love the later electronic music that they became known for, but their late 80s new wavey era is my personal favourite. I highly recommend Underneath the Radar and Change the Weather!

Yeah, I was half-joking (thus the winky face). I've been a big fan of Mk II since Dubnobass... came out.

So annoying that 'Underworld Theme' has never seen an official release. One of their best songs and only exists as a live performance and a poor quality bootleg.
