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.\").", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
