zackster mono-stereo None of them, as the Chemical Brothers are shit. Yep. Thought this was stamped into board lore as fact and they were never to be discussed again.
Smallman1 The answer is yes - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_to_the_Siren_(The_Chemical_Brothers_song) “They sent a copy to London DJ Andrew Weatherall, who made it a permanent fixture in his DJ sets.”
gcw Add me to the ‘dislike Chemical Brothers’ camp. Just never got it with them. I witnessed them reducing a 20,000 crowd by about 70% at Gatecrasher Millennium within about 30 seconds of starting their set. Underworld reign supreme for me ….
Millsy gcw yup. Only a few Chems tracks I rate, but Underworld were different class. Cue Rhouses asking if we should also consider the work of Daft Punk.
gcw alistair possibly. They came on after Oakenfold had destroyed the place. I have tried to get into their stuff, it’s just not for me
Smallman1 A clear pattern is emerging, those who like the Chemical Brothers are high performing alpha’s whilst those who don’t are low t loosers who need to double up on the ole nugenix.
gcw alistair lol a real blast from the past. I think he was on the roster, Matt Hardwick deffo was. Wonder what happens to these guys
BlainSA alistair Think he was on early so played to about 20 people because of the dire management of it all and most people queuing for hours.
zackster The hierarchy of live British dance act duos, from the golden age, is as follows: Underworld The Orb FSOL Orbital The Prodigy Basement Jaxx The Chemical Bros.
jonattonyeah zackster Does Roni Size/Reprazent not qualify? They were a can’t miss for me whenever they came around this way.
Unbroken1 zackster The hierarchy of live British dance act duos, from the golden age, is as follows: Underworld The Orb FSOL Orbital The Prodigy Basement Jaxx The Chemical Bros. …fucking hell. Getting so much wrong in a single post.
hugopal zackster The hierarchy of live British dance act duos, from the golden age, is as follows: Underworld The Orb FSOL Orbital The Prodigy Basement Jaxx The Chemical Bros. Without wishing to get too bogged down with the contents of your list, The Prodigy have to be no.1 (regardless of what happened after FotL). Also, do you know what “duo” means?!
zackster Ed driving to Printworks, with Frank Thomas mounted on the front of his car Fury Road style, to see Hector Oaks.
SM001 Smallman1 Exactly. The fuck, Zack! 😅 The Prodigy can fuck off. Like Daft Punk they turned into a novelty band after their first two albums.
