Tom & Ed met in history class at Manchester University in 1989. They started as DJs known as "The 237 Turbo Nutters" (named after the number of their house on Dickenson Road in Manchester and a reference to their Blackburn raving days). They then opted for "The Dust Brothers,” which they nicked from the L.A. producers of the Beastie Boys' 1989 Album "Paul's Boutique,” as they thought they would never be famous. In 1995 they changed their name to "The Chemical Brothers,” after the real Dust Brothers threatened to sue.

The Chemical Brothers, consisting of Tom & Ed, are an iconic electronic music duo who first came together while studying history at Manchester University in 1989. Originally starting out as DJs under the name "The 237 Turbo Nutters," a nod to their residence on Dickenson Road and memories of raving in Blackburn, they later adopted the moniker "The Dust Brothers." This name was borrowed from the renowned L.A. producers behind Beastie Boys' acclaimed album "Paul's Boutique," chosen with an assumption that fame would elude them forever. However, due to legal reasons stemming from copyright infringement concerns, they ultimately rebranded themselves as The Chemical Brothers in 1995.

Since then, The Chemical Brothers have solidified their place within the electronic music scene, captivating audiences worldwide with their distinctive sound and energetic performances. With a career spanning decades, this

From the first squeezed-out notes, those analogue dots and dashes that flash and spark from the speakers, Further sounds like a record that is trying to break out of its confines. Like an alien morse code transmission, it pulses like an earth bound signal that's been bounced off the side of orbiting space debris. Snatches of voices found out in the ether cut through the machine fog, drifting across burbling analogue equipment lovingly kept working long after supposed sell-by date. By the time the click and thump of snare and bass drum arrive, the sounds are all encompassing, swirling around you with dizzying, disorientating effect. noise is untethered by constraints of volume, seemingly leaping from left to right to middle with a life of its own. For a band used to dealing in psychedelics, this time round the Chemical Brothers have really pushed the envelope. Further is the Chemical Brothers' seventh studio album, an eight track masterpiece of modern psychedelia. Effortlessly fusing freefrom analogue wig-outs to juggernaut dancefloor dynamics on the album's first single, Escape Velocity - arguably the most unrelenting 12 minutes of music ever to pick up serious national radio support in the UK - the record sees Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons explore the boundless possibilities of their sound. taking a trip through four decades of electronic noise, Tom and Ed have taken the template set up with their occasional electronic battle weapon releases and allowed them to mutate gloriously into an entire album. Vocal samples are woven through tracks to create a record that ebbs and flows like one of the band's legendary live sets. here, the west coast power pop harmonies of dissolve sit beside German motorik rhythms of k+d b while valentines-esque sonic manipulations plane across the top of early house basslines (swoon). Further is the culmination of nearly two decades of psychedelic exploration, an immersive collection that sees the chemical brothers at their least-restrained and most-melodic best.
