Originally recorded in less than a week, the fun and moxie will hit you with every beat of 'Better Living Through Chemistry'.Released in 1996, this is the first full-length album Norman Cook was to release under his successful moniker Fatbou Slim. Fuelled by his signature Big Beats that would come to dominate the '90s dance scene, sprinkled with Acid House bleeps and squeaks and heavily sample-laced, 'Better Living Through Chemistry' proved to be just the tip of Cook's proverbial iceberg.After this release he quickly went on to make hit singles 'Rockafeller Skank' and 'Praise You', but on this album we find classics such as 'Everybody Needs A 303' and 'Going Out Of My Head', where both Acid House and Triphop influences prevail.'Better Living Through Chemistry' isn't just a promise of more to come, it is the starting point of a journeu, and we're all invited along for the ride. 180 grams audiophile vinyl.
