    "comment": "After the death of Ian Curtis, the remaining Joy Division members formed New Order in 1980.\n\nNew Order came up with the rhythm of this song when they were experimenting with a new Oberheim DMX drum machine. Peter Hook explained: \"Bernard [Sumner] and Stephen [Morris] were the instigators. It was their enthusiasm for new technology. The drum pattern was ripped off from a Donna Summer B-side.\" (The song also samples Kraftwerk's \"Uranium.\").",
