Maybe one of the most popular Djs of all times, a pop-star jetting throughout the globe every week-end to feature exclusive events as well as award winning, always carrying with him his fame facing hollywood starts and music big names. Fatboy Slim’s project (aka Norman Cook) was born as a joke one to promote UK Label Skint, featuring risible stuff to play with. And the thing was so appreciated Norman suddenly got glued to success more like a course than a luck! Just like Midas king, he can make out gold by everything he touches, and really can’t figure out did it happen. Hi sifrst album grabbed him from Dj sets to pop world bringing him to all the fame pop star could get. There’s no priza he hasn’t won and there’s no place in which he hasn’t played, from dancefloor club to stadium. in 1999 he featured to huge events like the boxing-themed face-off with Armand Van Helden at London’s Brixton Academy, and a legendary show with The Chemical Brothers at Red Rocks, Colorado. The next year he started working on his new album, featuring Macy Gray and the helpful hand of Chemical Brothers. After working hard on experimenting and looking for the right sounds and emotions at the right time. And the first single went out “Prey” and got soon a smash hit and the second one “Song For Shelter” featuring Urban Soul’s Roland Clarke, followed perfectly. All the album quickly got to the highest high of success bringing him even more fame and world-wide popularity. Despite of this he can’t forget his club roots, which often come out in his last album, explaining how much he preferes clubbing than being a pop-star, whose life’s so hard and the pressure’s high even in your private life. At the moment he’s always working on productions and remixes, completelly refusing to repeat himself just to ride the wave of success he had, searching for fresh stuff and revolutionary moods to create something he loves at first and transmitting this love to fans. agreat superstar, who still wants his friends to give him advices and opinions about what he makes, who still loves Djing mixed up with the crowd better than presencing an award.
