    The greatest band that never existed!
    Bill Drummond & Jim Cauty.

    For any pedestrians that aren't aware, these 2 guys influenced whatever electronic music you are listening to. For those in the dark, immediately invest your time, and with the next click of your mouse, start reading whatever you can online . Here's a little teaser...

    'Kylie said Trance' is the B-side of 'When Kylie said to Jason'. It was released in 1989 and is regarded by many as the birth of Trance music. Also the best thing that Kylie Minogue or Jason Donovan ever had their name on.
    In 1990 The KLF released the album 'Chill Out'. I'll presume no more needs to be said about that.
    In 1991 they were the biggest selling band in the world, with 4 top ten singles and 'The White Room' album.
    On 12 February 1992, they opened the BRIT Awards in London with a thrash version of '3a.m. Eternal', accompanied by punk band Extreme Noise Terror. The performance ended with Bill Drummond firing blanks from a machine gun over the heads of the crowd, and their promoter Scott Piering announcing over the PA that "The KLF have now left the music business".
    They were subsequently kicked out of the ceremony and unable to receive their award for "Best British Group'. Later that night, on the red carpet of the official after-party, they dumped a dead sheep and 8 gallons of blood, along with the message "I DIED FOR EWE - BON APETIT" tied around its body.
    After the show they had a motorcycle courier collect the BRIT Award statuette. It was finally found years later, buried in a field near Stonehenge and then returned to the duo. It hasn't been seen again.
    Following months of media speculations, on the 14th May 1992, The KLF deleted their entire back music catalogue and destroyed all their merchandise. An action made possible because, in the true DIY spirit of punk, they owned their own record label. This action was to prove that their break-up was serious and not a stunt to sell more records.

    To mark 2 months until World Techno Day 2010, this track was dumped here by YFY to educate and enjoy.

    Justified!
