Block-rocking beats and off-the-wall samples collide with room-shaking results for this electronic alchemist. Formerly a mere mortal known as Norman Cook, bass player in the English jangle pop band The Housemartins, he took to the dance floor like a demon as Fatboy Slim—and never looked back. The gospel-tinged vocals of “Praise You”, the wangling surf guitar of “The Rockafeller Skank” and the pile-driving rhythm and insistent chants of “Right Here, Right Now” are just a few of the heady high points on this booming playlist.
