Fatboy SlimIn 2000, the wave of ‘Big Beat’ was still rolling enough for Norman Cook to continue leading pasty British ravers to Ibiza for hedonistic pilgrimages with his third Fatboy Slim album.
The hits weren’t as immediate, dropping harder acid via Doors samples (Bird Of Prey) and ruthless “What the fuck” loopery (Star 69; Retox), making Halfway Between The Gutter & The Stars more of an Ibizan album for those who went so hard they don’t remember being there.
