From the Hip is the third album by Blackpool band Section 25, released in 1984. Following on from previous album releases Always Now and The Key of Dreams it marked a major departure in terms of sound and scope. Abandoning their harsh original post-punk sound the group embarked upon a new journey into the realms of electronica and techno, with the help of Bernard Sumner (of New Order) who co-produced the album at Rockfield Studios. The album features subtle yet warm and atmospheric electronic tracks, such as "The Process" and "Inspiration", as well as the techno-style "Looking From A Hilltop" and the lighter synthpop of "Reflection". "Looking From A Hilltop" was remixed by Bernard Sumner and Donald Johnson of A Certain Ratio for single release, with the lengthy "Megamix" version becoming an underground club hit, later sampled by both Orbital and The Shamen, and also described as "legendary" by Pitchfork Media.[2] It was also the first track on Factory Records dance retrospective FAC. Dance. Artwork The artwork by Peter Saville and Trevor Key for the album featured a colour-based code that was present on a set of climbing poles on the album's sleeve. The band name and/or album title are spelled out using the same colour code that Saville used on New Order's releases from the same period, including Power, Corruption & Lies, "Blue Monday" and "Confusion". LTM Recordings reissued the album on CD in 1998 with a number of bonus tracks. One of the bonus tracks (the 12" remix of "Beating Heart") contains an early example of the Roland TB-303 producing an acid house style bassline several years before its popularity in club music. A double vinyl edition appeared in 2012 under the Factory Records imprint, with artwork enhanced by Peter Saville.[3] In May 2014 an expanded 30th anniversary 2xCD edition was issued by Factory Benelux, with a bonus disc featuring original demos as well as a BBC radio session from 1984 plus a new recording of Reflection. Both Bernard Sumner and Jon Savage contributed liner notes. The new version of Reflection (subtitled 'Younger Image') was also issued as a limited edition orange vinyl 7" single to mark Record Store Day in April 2014.
Once you've left the floor there ain't no beat no more (4x) (Cry for...) Once you've left the floor there ain't no beat no more (2x) Light shines on and on, (4x) The hero takes a step, step forward, stepping stone, skipping home, chasing stars, you're on your own, Cry for help, need to know, fear at last, love at home, Fear at last , what a rush! and rhythm , rhythm is my God, rhythm is my. Once you've left the floor there ain't no beat no more (2x) (Cry for...) You keep on coming on, you keep on coming on like a hungry, hungry freight train, Cry for help, need to know, fear at last, love at home, cry for. . . . Such a sweet life, that dream so pure can I find a heart that will endure it, Light shines on and on, (5x) The hero takes a step forward, Cry for... (2x) Fear at...

(Cry for...)
Once you've left the floor there ain't no beat no more (2x)
Light shines on and on, (4x)
The hero takes a step, step forward, stepping stone, skipping
home, chasing stars, you're on your own,
Cry for help, need to know, fear at last, love at home,
Fear at last , what a rush! and rhythm , rhythm is my God, rhythm is my.
Once you've left the floor there ain't no beat no more (2x)
(Cry for...)
You keep on coming on, you keep on coming on like a hungry, hungry
freight train,
Cry for help, need to know, fear at last, love at home, cry for. . . .
Such a sweet life, that dream so pure can I find a heart that will
endure it,
Light shines on and on, (5x)
The hero takes a step forward,
Cry for... (2x)
Fear at...
More... more... more
Once you've, once you've left... (2x)
Cry for...
