chemical brothers - 'wide open (feat. beck)'

Tweet

You just know that anything that has Beck and the Chemical Brothers collaborating will be utterly joyful. This is from the Chemical Brothers new album and probably the stand-out track for me.

The album 'Exit Planet Dust' is 20 years old today. It's an incredible album that has stood the test of time quite well.

An unlikely but very welcome pairing for this brand new release from their upcoming new album.

What a superb video. Simple but effective and nods to New Order's  'True Faith' video.

It's their first release for something like 5 years and has all the hallmarks of being classic Chemical Brothers. There's a long intro, bring in the heavy bass, take the bass out, tease and tease and then the drop. Add a bit of acid house in the middle and take the bass out again...bigger tease and huge drop and key changes aplenty. It's a formula that works well for them. Actually, I do like the tune a lot.
