Underworld – King Of Snakes – Compact Disc
King of Snake is a track by the British electronic music duo Underworld, featured on their 1999 album Beaucoup Fish. The song was released as the album’s second single on August 16, 1999, and showcases Underworld’s signature blend of progressive trance and techno.
King of Snake is notable for its interpolation of the bassline from Donna Summer’s 1977 disco classic ‘I Feel Love,’ written by Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte. This homage bridges the gap between 1970s disco and late 1990s electronic dance music, highlighting Underworld’s ability to fuse different eras and styles seamlessly.
