New Order Blue Monday.The Story Behind The song by Various Artists

New Order was breaking new ground in electronic music with “Blue Monday.” The staccato bass line was created using a Moog synthesizer and sequenced on a homemade machine built by Sumner. The vocal choir was sampled from Kraftwerk’s “Uranium,” and is one of music history’s first sampling instances. Remember how much Tony Wilson hated disco? Peter Hook admitted that Donna Summer’s “Our Love” inspired “Blue Monday.” Working with an early sampler, the group also borrowed pieces from Sylvester’s “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)” and “Dirty Talk” by Klein & M.B.O.
Before making this all work, they had to learn how to use the sampler. Sumner and Morris spent hours recording their own flatulence. If it weren’t for their sampled gas, New Order might not have arranged the disparate pieces into “Blue Monday.” Listen the whole story with the songs that inspired the band and also the later samples and covers.Full detailed playlist you will find in comment
