    Not sure if anyone mentioned this… the Chem’s remix of Spiritualised… fucking immense

    Reading Festival 1999.
    17 year old me was ripped a new one by Atari Teenage Riot, Roni Size, Breakbeat Era, u-ziq and The Chemical Brothers.

    So it all started with them. I was front row when they dropped The Sunshine Underground and It Doesn’t Matter.

    Great gateway, and they still know how to make a great tune and have stuck to their guns.

    Also, Digweed dropped Star Guitar in his encore on Sunday night and it’s still a belting tune

    If you go back through this thread, it’s mainly the loosers in life who don’t like them, Millsy, Zackster etc etc.

      Star Guitar and Afrika are the only original Chems tracks I play. Star Guitar is their stand out for me. Most of the other stuff is guff to me. Remixes on the other hand…

      Smallman1 you’ll listen to, wear or pay hunky gypsy builders for any old shite, so you know, do one.

        Here’s 3 live electronic bands who shit all over the chems.

        Leftfield
        Orbital
        Underworld
        And another newcomer
        Bicep

        The chems were wank at V festival early 2000s. Luckily Orbital came on and destroyed the place after but for an hour or so the dance tent was bolloxed. Just a load of student types whooping to it. Only time I’ve seen them Tbf but once was well enough. Star Guitar Heller remix is boss and I did actually quite like Out of control remix by the bald one but it aged baaaaadly.
