I came up with an Idea for future DJ sets, particularly at festivals (hopefully coachella :-D ), for the Chemical Brothers.
I thought it might be cool for the Chems to do a DJ battle. Not necessarily a competition, but rather like a fun, on-stage DJ colab. But to add to it, I wanna play the Irony card. You could have the Chemical Brothers on one table and then the Dust Brothers (the american producers) on the other. That means time to pull out the old hip hop records (ala, "live at the social"). 8)
Of course, I think I would rather see them play a live set. But, I thought this would be a cool way of mixing things up.

Yeah reminds me of that DJ Battle a few years ago between Armand Van Helden and Fatboy Slim (which I think Mr Cook won).
Sounds a lot of fun, I would be up for being in the crowd. Another good one would be vs Basement Jaxx. Forum wise I don't think Daft Punk would be a good idea though... X-D

ha, that would be pretty massive, however, I know Daft Punk wouldnt participate. It took them 10 years to make a very limited tour, they're way too lazy.
The Chems Vs. The Jaxx, would be be quite cool 8)
The Chems can finally put the 'Electronic Battle Weapons' to use! }:-)

Yeah I couldnt imagine this happening. I would prefere a night such as Glint @ Glasto with there mates playing and a few extras. Ideal Line up for me would be something like......
The Chemical Brothers(DJ set)
Fatboyslim
Justin Robertson
Dave Robertson(Live)
Psychonauts
Nathan Detroit
At a small venue like concorde2, with an afterpart at Normans.

I dont know what happend exactly , but if my memory is correct there was something between the Chems and the Jaxx. I believe the Jaxx once said nasty stuff about the Chems songs. But i might be wrong.
