Norman Cook, aka Fat Boy Slim, shows off his big beat-dance style once again with the release of YOU`VE COME A LONG WAY BABY. Packed with pure energy, smart breaks and edgy samples, YOU`VE COME A LONG WAY BABY is a strong follow up to 1997`s BETTER LIVING THROUGH CHEMISTRY. The first single, "The Rockafeller Skank" cleverly uses a Lord Finesse vocal sample that dominates the massive-sounding track. In addition, the twangy surf guitars provide a texture not often heard in big beat.
"Gangster Tripping," the second single, is a funky, mind-bending head-nodder that uses smashing drums, horn shots, reggae breaks and filtering techniques. Other tracks to make you move are "Build it Up," the adrenaline wig-out "Acid 8000" and "Praise You," with its catchy, `70s-like piano hook. The title of this album speaks volumes about the state of Fat Boy Slim`s work. Catch up or you`ll get stomped by the big beat explosion.
