chemicalmat, Sep 05, 2007

"We Are The Night" is the most psychedelic chemical brothers album yet, far from Big Beat !
The feeling of "We Are The Night" is closely related to "Surrender" : retro-psychedelism with old-school synthesizers.

There are others samples not repertoried in albums notes.
The classic "Crystal Grass" by Crystal World (1974) for the "Modern Midnight Conversation"s bassline and the very rare Massimo Barsottis "Whole Lotta Love" (1983) in "Burst Generator".
