jonattonyeah but their first three albums were solid gold
Chemical Brothers - Desert Island track
“In October 1992, they pressed 500 white label copies [of Song of the Siren] and took them to various dance record shops around London, but none would play it, saying that it was too slow (the track played at 111 BPM). They sent a copy to London DJ Andrew Weatherall, who made it a permanent fixture in his DJ sets.”

mono-stereo oh? So you don’t like the raw flith of Morning Lemon?
Boss tune.
Chems are the band for Gen Xers who would say things like “I also like to listen to a bit of electronica. Have you heard any? Its quite good!”
The tune I put on when the lovelies arrive at the afters -
And for our American cousins, I am what’s known as extracting the Michael.
Fucking lol!
The Chems were indeed a despicable ‘cross over’ act for spengs at uni who also rated Fatboy Slim and that atrocious Big Beat carry on. Meanwhile the cool kids like me were listening to Dubnobasswithyourheadman and Northern Exposure apres/during my daily cry wank.
Hello and thank you for this wonderful discussion. There are some very interesting opinions being shared. I am surprised that no one has mentioned Dj Sasha and John Digweed yet. Maybe they are a bit underground for many of you, but I really think they deserve to be in the conversation. I really enjoy listening to their hit song Pushing Too Hard while unwinding after a long day at the office.
With that being said, I would like to take this time to announce that I am rescinding my offer to purchase jaded-clubbers.com. After repeated inquests, I have still not been satisfied with an explanation as to why a Matt Smith currently controls 37 different account names. As such, my legal team has contacted the board, and informed them of our intent to withdraw. Any attempt to withhold our initial good faith deposit will be met in court.
Thank you again for all of your candor and I look forward to speaking with you all soon!
