		In 1995 he was commissioned by Damien Harris to record the inaugural tune for Brighton dance label Skint, and Fatboy Slim was born with the "Santa Cruz" single.

		There are a couple of Fatboy classics here in "Mad Flava" and "Drop the Hate", both songs that you could call "slammin" without blushing too much, and proof that if your pony knows a really good trick, you might as well let it dance.

		Something to remember: Before there was Fatboy Slim the DJ, there was Norman Cook the bassist for breezy politi-pop '80s band The Housemartins.
		Fatboy Slim is one of the big UK DJs partly because he's homegrown but also because he fought for and created many excellent club nights such as Big Boutique and, of course, the huge Brighton beach party fests.

	Fatboy Slim: Palookaville - PopMatters Music Review
		The last Fatboy Slim album saw Cook very tentatively dipping his toes into the world of live vocals, with appearances by the aforementioned Gray as well as "Weapon of Choice"'s Bootsy Collins.
		Fatboy Slim is not an artist who even his most ardent admirers usually associate with gripping, emotional songwriting, and the placement of such an unabashedly fun track at the end of the album serves to restore the status quo in Cook's hedonistic world.
		Of course, anyone who dismissed Fatboy Slim as a novelty act was wholly unprepared for Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars, and that could definitely go a long way towards explaining just why the album was greeted with such a chilly reception.

		True, big-beat by the likes of the Chemical Brothers, the Propellerheads, and our subject at hand, Fatboy Slim has gone strong for a good two and a half years-- far longer than your average hit of ecstasy.
		Slim's playing it safe here, doing what he knows he does best: mindless music meant for little more than dancing.
		Slim, though, apparently feels some pull from his previous Top 40 hits and tries a few stabs at reclaiming that popularity from the masses.

		Fatboy Slim, however, is the former Housemartin's most successful incarnation, launching a Top 40 crossover hit and popular advertising jingle with last year's "Going out of My Head." You've Come a Long Way, Baby picks up where the smash single left off, cheekily pairing acidic synthesizers and drum machines with big, dumb vocal samples.
		In this case: "Have you ever heard of Fatboy Slim?" "No." But then that same person is dancing to his songs in the club.
		Keep in mind that Fatboy Slim is not one of those artists that only have good released songs and have the rest of the album be garbage.

		I was astonished how intimate the club was, looking up to see Fatboy Slim - on a raised boxing ring - no further away than he had been at the airport.
		Such is the fame of Fatboy Slim, however, I'm aware of a lot of his work, and I like it.
		It was a treat to see so closely a master so desperately trying to keep his balance, and a highlight of the night when he kicked in with a perfect redemption.

		Fatboy Slim) Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars is uneven as heck and nowhere near as frat boy-friendly as his previous releases.
		In his latest studio release, British electronica wizard Fatboy Slim seems to have lost some of the raw energy and the poignancy that can be found in his 1998 retrospective record, You've Come A Long Way, Baby.
		Thus, it is worth buying if you are a Fatboy Slim fan, but if you want to get an album, representative of Norman Cook to sort of get into his music, get any other album but this.

		In the late 1990s, big beat seemed vital: The Chemical Brothers were giving the often-goofy sound a tinge of style, and Fatboy Slim was gatecrashing happy hours, dormitories, and the P.A. systems of sporting events with the sculpted trash energy of singles like "The Rockafeller Skank" and "Praise You".
		Fatboy Slim seemed stuck in the loop that made him popular in the first place.
		It drifts into squiggling Fatboy Slim generica, sapping whatever power might've been left in the vocal hook.
