Forgery
Urban Dance Squad · Planet Ultra [1999]
Front and forgery
Fifteen minutes, but the girl wants me to stay
Front and forgery
Suit and tie, suit and tie becomes so amicable
Front and forgery
Pass the time, pass the time with liquids and chemicals
Front and forgery
Pass on, pass on, move on forget it !
Get started, don't know where it begins
Front and forgery
Pull it off at loose ends
Front and forgery
Autograph, fix a laugh and hide a frown
Front and forgery
Just a band that's new in town
Front and forgery
Pass on, pass on, move on forget it !
It's cheap
Wake me up while I lie asleep
It's cheap
Throw boulders while the road is steep
It's cheap
Forgery - Urban Dance Squad
Urban Dance Squad's 'Forgery' stands as a defining track from their 1999 debut album, Planet Ultra. As a quintessential example of the UK garage sound, the recording blends a rolling, syncopated drum pattern with a melodic, often melancholic vocal delivery. The song captures the genre's signature atmosphere of late-night urban life, utilizing a moody production style that became a hallmark of the era. Released during the height of the genre's popularity, 'Forgery' exemplifies the group's ability to craft infectious yet introspective tracks that bridged the gap between dancefloor energy and emotional depth. It remains a staple in the catalogue of early UK garage, showcasing the band's influence on the sound that defined the turn of the millennium.
