Perhaps he should be a bit more careful with them, then? -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch

What better way to highlight this weekend's "carnival" than with one of its headliners. This Friday the legendary Fatboy Slim will be taking the stage (KineticField) where he will probably play one of the stronger sets of the evening. 'The Rockafeller Skank' has stood the test of time since 1998, the year it first hit the airwaves. It's pretty unbelievable when you think about it, as this track is nearly 15 years old! What makes this particular tune so unique is that the whole song is a collaboration of samples. The vocals are from ' Vinyl Dog Vibe [...]

Norman Cook played the final set of his disappointingly short India tour in Bangalore on Sunday, May 6.

Hey mambo...mambo italiano! Go go go...mix some electronic flow! And that's what the five guys from Milano do with their self-appointed turbofunk electro, a lot of huge basslines, epic breakdowns and groovy beats. Reset! will spread their italian attractiveness and charme this saturday to the Berlin party crowd at Gretchen when we are celebrating 3 years with our Pink-Pong familiy, friends and lovers and good music! And they are bringing some souvenirs from Bella Italia...the quintet just made a brandnew remix for Kris Menace 's " We are ", just check the track below. It [...]

Norman Quentin Cook, better known as Fatboy Slim has sent all his music fans in India a message. It may be just 29 seconds long but you will definitely love his quirky sense of humour. Cook starts off with a 'Namaste' and that he's excited to come to India, but it's the end that's the real comedy piece. If you haven't been bombarded already, here is our coverage of the funk soul brother's arrival into the country, Fatboy Slim is coming to India Kvlt-est press release about Mister [...]

Our favorite dance-hop remixer is back, and this time he tackles a legend! Benji Boko takes on Fatboy Slim 's 'The Joker'. Benji takes the original that sounds more like a laid-back sugar pop/rock track from Jack Johnson or Jason Mraz , which is very unexpected from Fatboy Slim , and changes it all up! He adds a big, bouncing bass line that will force your head to bounce to the beat, amps up the raucous island infused drums and keeps it completely playful and fun with infectious bright and bubbly sounds [...]

It only takes two mere examples of Henry Fong talents in 'There and Back vs. Pressure' & 'Troll Walking Alone with Greyhound' to shine through like a godliness sledgehammer from his state of Orlando, Florida. So if anything is loose or needs replacing in your studio / computer room at the moment, then I would suggest you batten it down right now as being a member of the production quartet known as DEFEP goes a long way in committing to the phrase 'world' and 'impact.' We'll just have to wait and [...]
