“What Time Is Love?” is a song released, in different mixes, as a series of singles by the band The KLF. It featured prominently and repeatedly in their output from 1988 to 1992. In its original form, the track was an instrumental acid house anthem; subsequent reworkings, with vocals and additional instrumentation, yielded the international hit singles “What Time Is Love? (Live at Trancentral)” (1990) and “America: What Time Is Love?” (1991), which respectively reached #5 and #4 in the UK Singles Chart and introduced The KLF to a mainstream international audience.

Live at Trancentral:
A 1990 version subtitled “Live at Trancentral” was the first of The KLFs upbeat “Stadium House Trilogy” and the single that introduced The KLF to an international mainstream audience, reaching No. 5 in the UK Singles Chart. It is a pop-house reworking of the Pure Trance Original, adding vocal samples, a new bassline, a new house rhythm and a self-proclaiming rap (performed by Isaac Bello). The “Trancentral” in the subtitle refers to The KLFs recording studio. Although crowd noise features on the mix, it is in fact a purely studio-based creation and a characteristic of the “Stadium House” recordings.[citation needed] An LP version of this mix appears on the album The White Room.
A remix 12″, “What Time Is Love? (Remodelled & Remixed)” was released a month after the “Stadium House” version. It contains remixes by Echo & the Bunnymenfor whom The KLF co-founder Bill Drummond had previously been managerand The Moody Boys. Both “Live at Trancentral” and “Remodelled & Remixed” were declared single of the week’ at different times by NME, where “Live at Trancentral” was described as a collision of “energy, humour and violence”. NME also ranked “Live at Trancentral” as the 4th best single of 1990. Q Magazine noted the “awesome vitality” of the LP version. A retrospective review of the LP version by Splendid Magazine found the song to be “extraordinary”. “It throbs and pulses in a still-riveting manner that transcends the dated beatdrops. Fusing the siren-wailing urgency of rave anthemry with the drunk-on-its-own-riff brilliance of the stupidest, simplest pop music, its the kind of song that sends electrifying impulses through the drunken brain.”
