We're very excited to be welcoming Fatboy Slim to the club this Friday. Quite simply Norman Cook is a superstar, and a thoroughly British one at that. His part in the chart topping groups The Housemartins, Beats International and Freak Power would have made him a pub quiz staple, but Cook’s positioning at the emergence of big beat in the mid nineties meant he was destined for much stronger success than that. He married the chart topping prowess of his now world famous Fatboy Slim persona with a DJing knack equally as revered, turning the art of playing other people’s records into a stadium defining process.
Still one of the true superstar DJs left on the planet (check the documentary for his monolithic Big Beach Bootique event that still takes over Brighton’s shores), Fatboy’s crowd pleasing prowess marks him out as a true icon. He will be bringing a special ensemble of guests to ensure that Manchester feels the force of a true lord of the dance. And don’t forget Fatboy Slim Live: At The Big Beach Bootique – screened at over 600 cinemas worldwide this summer – is to be made available on DVD from November 5th on Southern Fried.
