Career


Hyde moved to Cardiff in the late 1970s to study at Cardiff College of Art. There he formed the new wave-synthpop band Freur in 1982 with Rick Smith and Alfie Thomas.[5] The band released two albums, Doot-Doot (1983) and Get Us out of Here (1986), before relocating to Essex, and renaming themselves Underworld. They have continued to make music since.[5]

He contributed towards the score for the London 2012 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony, alongside Underworld's Rick Smith who was the ceremony's Musical Director.[4]

In January 2013, Hyde announced the release date for his debut solo album, Edgeland.[6][7] It was released worldwide on 22 April that year[8] through Universal. It was co-produced by Leo Abrahams.[9]

In 2014, Hyde collaborated with English musician and record producer Brian Eno on the album Someday World, which was released on Warp.[10] The first single from this album, "The Satellites", was released in March 2014.[11] Within weeks of the album's release, it was announced that a second album, High Life, would be released on 30 June (1 July in North America),[12] also through Warp.

Hyde's daughter Tyler performs in the experimental rock band Black Country, New Road.
