On the Floor at the Boutique

This CD covers a lot of ground. It goes from sped-up Jungle brothers through a whole lot of Skint label sort of stuff, some more traditional breakbeat/bigbeat, some heeeavy acid... it's very eclectic, and fun to listen to.The mixing strikes me as being a little bit awkward. The records are always well synced up and more or less in tune, but the transitions are both predictable and noticeably abrupt. Before hearing the CD all the way through, I had already developed a pretty good sense of when I would be hearing the next record come into the mix.Buy it anyway. This album is a lot of fun.

I can't stress how much you need to get this enough. All of the songs flow together (literally, he did this in one sitting) and the beat is amazing. Anybody who is even remotely interested in electonica or fatboy slim shouldn't hesitate for a second when getting this. It is fatboy slim's best. Any techno listener is not a true tech without this CD in his collection. Just get it.

I caught Norman in Vegas (of all places) at the Hard Rock Cafe (of all places) in June of 1999 and was floored. This record brought it all back for me. If he put one of these out every month I would subscribe. Play it loud and not on 'shuffle.'

Try "Better Living Through Chemistry" or "You've Come A Long Way, Baby" first, they are quite good."On The Floor At The Boutique" is an underproduced, confusing, thin sounding mix with very few high spots. Sound quality is akin to a basement tape or a bootleg recording. What little tempo and beat there is often lost through the song transitions.

Impossibly sick beats and flow

Nice compilation by fatboyslim with brilliant remix. It's cool and entertaining. Not a must have, but a noce to have

if you have $4.00 and like Fatboyslim and live in the US where this was not for sale,get off your lazy bum and buy. its HOT.

This album busts a better move than your mother after her breakdancing lesson. But seriously folks, how this CD rocks! May possibly lead to booty-shaking...

All good until the last 3 tracks which just skip,at first I thought this was on the CD player but have tried on 2 other CD players and its the same.due to the price paid its really not worth returning for a refund.

Goodo

My favourite FatBoy slim LP

100%

Si le style de musique appelé "big beat" vous dit quelque chose et vous plaît, alors le premier album que vous devez acquérir en premier est celui-ci. C'est LA référence de cet acabit électronique, dont le nom fut inventé par Fatboy Slim lui-même mais dont les premiers morceaux furent créés par les Chemical Brothers au début des 90's sous le nom de "Dust Brothers", ces derniers étant responsables de la lancée de la carrière big beat de Norman Cook.Un an après l'album "Better Living Through Chemistry", et un an avant le planétaire "You've Come A Long Way, Baby", Fatboy Slim utilise sa recette "funky big beat" et mixe efficacement des morceaux d'artistes l'ayant inspiré dans son travail.
