THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS

Singles 93 - 03

http://www.astralwerks.com/chemical



We've got some absolutely huge news this week. Our

dynamic duo are returning to the US for a run of DJ

gigs. These dates are hot off the presses but already

word is spreading fast. Our spies who saw them

headline the DJ tent at Glastonbury this summer tell

us that Tom & Ed are in absolute top form behind the

decks so we're expecting nothing less than sheer

amazement. Dates are below and tickets will be on sale

sooner than you can say "Who is this doing this

synthetic type of alpha-beta psychedelic funkin'?"

Don't miss these rare DJ gigs in celebration of the

brand new release, ‘Singles 93 - 03.’



Oct 18 Los Angeles, CA, LA Sports Arena

Oct 21 San Francisco, CA, Mezzanine

Oct 22 Chicago, IL, Transit

Oct 24 New York, NY, Centro-Fly



Just two weeks remain until the hotly anticipated

release of the aforementioned ‘Singles 93 - 03.’ The

collection of classic Chems songs as well as two brand

new tracks documents a decade of block rockin' beats.

The early birds among you can pick up the

limited-edition CD release which includes a bonus disc

of rarities, b-sides, live tracks and unreleased

music. It also includes a chance to win The Golden

Path Ticket and a chance to see Tom & Ed DJ on New

Year's Eve.



So let's recap. 24 total tracks of Chemical beats plus

a stab at a free trip to spend New Years with The

Chems. Not a bad deal, if we do say so ourselves.

Speaking of The Golden Path Ticket, we just couldn't

wait until the CD came out so we've set up another way

to win. Click on over to

http://www.astralwerks.com/chemical/ now and enter

online. There's no purchase necessary but the prize is

identical -- you and a guest could be off to

who-knows-where to see Tom & Ed DJ on New Year's Eve.

There's lots of new stuff on the the Chems site,

including all kinds of downloads like wallpapers and

AIM buddy icons and a really comprehensive discography

of EVERY release, as well as a history of every Chems

performance. And while you're on their website winning

trips (perhaps), downloading goodies, and remembering

classic performances, be sure to check out the

stunning video for the new single "The Golden Path."

Tom & Ed's take on the corporate rat-race is

inspiring, wickedly funny and yet another triumph in

their long line of mind-blowing videos.



Speaking of videos, our dear friends at MTV 2 have

just informed us that they love the new Chemical

Brothers video as much as we do and have added it to

full rotation. Tune in starting Monday to see this

amazing new video in all its wide screen glory. Next

week we'll be telling you about a special edition of

MTV's subterranean that will be a true Chems love

fest.



Still not enough? Fine--we'll even throw in a free

download! Up until release date on September 30, you

can download the track "Otter Rock" from the Bonus

Disc in the limited-edition of 'Singles 93 – 03.'

This track is brand new, never-released-before Chems

goodness, and it will expire 30 days after you

download it, so act fast and click over to

http://www.astralwer...3/download.html





‘Singles 93 - 03’ is out September 30 on CD,

quadruple-vinyl and DVD retrospective. Stay tuned for

more updates on this milestone release.

OTTER ROCK IS DA SHIT.nothing better than those drums

Very soothing...seems to me like a b-side from Surrender or DYOH...

It's kindda repetative though...doesn't change that often. But hey it rocks

DELETED

yes it reminded me of Pioneer skies and scale(i dunno why ?...same effect????)

anType Escribi�:

I think it sounds a bit unfinished...

perhaps that's why it wasn't a b-side... I don't know if it's just the quality, but does it sound like there is some guitar in there?



Also I'm amazed, I thought this was going to be a really old song (probably cause the name is more instyle to there dust bros track names) but it sounds like something from surrender, to me it's like freak of the weak because it's got those orgasmic drums (in contrast, it doesn't change rapidly like freak of the weak). In sum, I am way more impressed than I expected to be

I am a little bit dissapointed. There is something about this track. It get kindda boring after 2 minutes..I think it's the quality...which sucks...

It doesn't make me wanna listen to it one more time. Ok i play it...it's nice but one more time no way sir. Sorry but this track just didn't clicked with me.

This track might be an unfinished b-side from Surrender. Yes those drums are Freak of the Weekish. but not quite...seems to me like this track was probably made during the transition from DYOH and Surrender.. IT does have a little bit of Elektrobank feel to it

oter rock fucking rocks!!!!!! its so very dyoh era, its great!



thank christ its not another golden path! ;-)

i see where your coming from, it is a kinda low quality download, 92kb and when its mastered and on a cd it will be amazing, what a tune!!!

Oct 18 Los Angeles, CA, LA Sports Arena

I am so so excited about this, I may end up wetting myself.



No, not really. But I am excited!!!



The LA Sports Arena is a big place, seats over 16,000 - god I haven't been there in over 10 years. According to ticketmaster.com, the Chems are taking part in this year's Audiotistic (a mish mash of dj acts, starts at 2pm) Tix are $35 - $150 (yikes!) So if some of you are really planning on road tripping out here, get crackin!

That's why I wait till I get songs on CD or LP to listen to them.

otterrock... upon first listen, Wow! And it get's better and better with each listen!



I think I'm in love with this tune. I love how the flanging guitar melody dips in and out, I like the raw acoustic guitar melody too. I like how everything just drifts and especially dig the organ melody that comes in at 1:13. Nicely textured, nice drums, everything fits together wonderfully and it's quite psychadelic. Yeah, the download has a tinny aspect and so what - I can hear so much going on in this song. It's really different than anything they've done before, no real squiggly type sounds which have helped previously define the Chemical style and there's a great balance between the organic and the electronic. Overall it makes me want to head out to the beach on this fine sunny day, spread out on a nice grassy area overlooking the ocean, and just watch life go by.

Waaah... STOP IT ! }:-@

The likes of EMI will be chasing you then.....;-)
