%) VISIT AMAZON.COM'S PAGE | Editorial Reviews : On a crystal clear English summer's evening in 2001, Norman Cook played a celebrated DJ set in front of an estimated 30,000 loved-up Brightonians, generating two hours of typically hedonistic party mayhem. It's these two hours--or, at least, an edited version of them--that make up Cook's first mix album in ages and a perfect souvenir of the night now known as 'Normstock.' Soundwise, the album sees Senor Fatboy doing what he does best--mashing up thumping dance floor favorites with a sweat-drenched party panache. Those expecting classic big beat belters are in for a shock, though, since Mr. Slim is more into straight-up house and techno these days--albeit with a party twist. So, we get some of 2001's biggest records--Basement Jaxx's 'Where's Your Head At?,' Raven Maze's 'The Real Life,' a couple from Santos--alongside a smattering of classics (Leftfield's 'Phat Planet,' an anthemic version of Underworld's 'Born Slippy') and the off Fatboy number to keep the regulars happy. The result is a hot, sweaty, grimy mix that captures the sound and feel of Norman Cook's DJ sets, even if it does feel a touch out of date.
Buyer Reviews : WEll first off. the First track is born slippy. and then he goes into Basement jaxx with there new song. 'Where's your head at' I have to say as a dj to dj,'damn he had some good transitions. Played a nice diverse set and turned it into a cd. Kind of funny...Anywayz. The first 5 tracks i enjoyed alot. I mean he is the type of DJ i would like to be even though he mainly is a composer/producer. I went to this site and it lists all the Aliases that he has Norman Cook has gone by. Its very interesting. All and all my review of this Cd is 4 stars very HI considering im a DJ myself. And don't go buying Cds just b/c. Of all the Dj compilations I own this one's damn good.
