Title: Chemicals to World (Under Social Lights)
Post by: Csar on Jul 02, 2015, 20:38
The chems socialize with the world...

Tweets(@chembros (https://twitter.com/chembros), @eddychemical (https://twitter.com/eddychemical)), tumblers (http://thechemicalbrothers.tumblr.com/), instagrams (https://instagram.com/thechemicalbrothers/), facebooks (https://www.facebook.com/ChemicalBros), notepads and so on and so forth

Haha. Nice one.

And is this little chembros college block thing in the lower right corner?

Ok, I'm getting a kick out of being able to embed tweets. This was retweeted by Eddy and relates to Chemical material. The soundcloud is on the Now Playing thread. I don't know how to embed soundclouds though...(anyone?)

It's EML Ritual, not live, but studio version.

So, how many more will they be releasing? It's like half of the album is already out there before it's even been disclosed.  Seems to be a new marketing policy inside music industry. Very odd. I'm not sure I like that.
Title: Re: Chemical tweets (@chembros)
Post by: Enjoyed on Jul 03, 2015, 22:07
The plan for my 9 track album is to release each track over a 9 week period in the run up to the release.

I think for lesser known (or completely unknown folks like myself) it's a way of spreading out and trying to catch as many fans as possible from different places with different tracks.

I hardly think it's a necessary marketing tool for the Chems though. It's not like hearing EML is going to make us preorder the album anymore than simply hearing that there was an album coming did back in April.  Or maybe there are those new fans that need more convincing? I guess there's so much out there these days. The more times you see 'NEW CHEMICAL BROTHERS' the more likely you are to remember to buy the album when it comes out.
Title: Re: Chemical tweets (@chembros)
Post by: Explud on Jul 03, 2015, 22:21
It's weird these days.

And you said interesting thing about releasing tracks. Because i thought if i'll finish my album (if it really someday will happen!) i'll upload 2 or 3 tracks from it for free download and then will go to play gigs.
And only after successfully played gigs for 3 months i will start to think about full release date. If gigs will be unsuccessful, i'll start to rework material for people pleasure.

Well, I know it's marketing and all but it could very well backfire too and people might think "nah, the singles don't do much for me, won't buy it then". Maybe they're aiming at pre-ordering to make marketing music more efficient. Having said that, all the already released tracks can be illegally downloaded everywhere because of that policy and some people might not care much for the rest and take them as "giveaways".
In my opinion teasers like those they put on FB with these kind short snippets would get me more excited and make me wanting to get the whole album. That way it wouldn't spoil the experience, too, you have when you listen to an album the first time (yeah, I don't need to listen to them in the first place). Ooo, I'm so oldfashined :)

I wonder if we should change this thread to Chemical tweets AND INSTAGRAM?

Does Instagram embed?
https://instagram.com/p/4XjdjZRQeI/?taken-by=thechemicalbrothers

This one is interesting because it's a Talking Heads track that I think of when I hear Under Neon Lights.  I'm sure Talking Heads are an influence on that track.

What!? Am I psychically connected to the Brothers or something? Because that song has practically been my mantra for the last two weeks, coming home from my travels and all, I can't get it out of my head, I love it. I even changed my signature to a quote from it two days ago.

Man that is a weird coincidence.

Nothing. On some tweets it works like it should, on some not. No idea if this is problem with the twitter plugin on the forum or with twitter itself handling some tweets different than other.

He's coming back after the summer, but when is that? I'm hoping he's back by September, it would be great to see him in Chicago.

But from the looks of it he's there for sure for the South American Nov/Dec shows. There's a two and a half month gap between Bestival and those so maybe he joins then?

^I know Tom confirmed Ed would be back after the summer in a few interviews, so presumably whenever his studies allow him to be free he'll return... I get the feeling Ed hadn't decided if he was coming back or not at the time of the Guardian interview (it can be weeks or months after an interview until something is published).

A standing recommendation, anytime Marcus (or Adam) posts something related to visuals, download a copy of it ASAP! It gets taken down quickly. There were some amazing 360 concept videos for the 2010 Roundhouse shows and pro live footage that were only available for a short time, and sadly no one archived them.

Ok, just kidding. I'm guessing you didn't see the original tweet WN.
It was a still pic of Marcus & Adam holding respectively a tuba and a sousaphone. Both were wearing marching band jackets and hats, though I think they were wearing jeans and trainers (sneakers) on their bottom halves. And as per HSTN's slightly corrupted tweet embed above, it said "Chemicals shoot yesterday. Adam on sousaphone". And that was it.

BTW Adam doesn't do social media does he?

The Sunshine Underground
Sometimes I Feel So Deserted
Under the Influence
Swoon
Let Forever Be HAHA JK
Chemical Beats

a sticker on the mixer sends that says "Kitten", so they're probably going to be doing a cover of Underworld's Kittens
and two handwitten stickers on the Machinedrum I can't read.

Believe
I'll See You There
Don't Think
Setting Sun

also unseen:
House Nation
Music: Response
Song to the Siren
It Began in Afrika

Spoiler
Really??!?! Seems a bit of a leap. It could just be the name of a patch or effect that sounds like purring. I honestly can't imagine them playing that. It's not really the same as doing a New Order cover. Plus it's mostly about those delicious tribal riddims, and without the original Rick Smith sounds it wouldn't be totally recognizable I don't think. I'd have thought Rez or something like that would be more to the point.


That said.
I would cream myself if they did...

Not this one.

I'm being sarcastic - it's definitely a send for running audio into the Octave Kitten, the broken synth they end shows with.

Try the one to the left.


They were playing it in some 1999-2001ish DJ sets though. Or maybe 2003, I can't remember.

I Think I'm In Love would just be the best thing live, but IMO, it's a Surrender era track. If only because it's stylistically close to TSU, and it came out in 1998.

And I couldn't find a good spot in the set for it. Main set has to end on BRB, it's too perfect, and I dunno where else it would go.

It's a remix of Primal Scream from 1997. Really underrated.

HBHG because the set needs one more 'hit' in the list, especially after Prescription Beats, and it would be cool to bring back the 1997  version with the breakbeats and weird acid grooves.

I like your optimism,but im thinking the Chems are not making a big deal of it other than just reflecting their past and current view of the album and its impact. Play album, maybe an interview, done!

I too tried for the album to be of some recognition due to its anniversary state. I actually sent off an email for the Chems to do a record signing at record store out here in California, which would be appropriate for DYOH and the recent vinyl reissues!

I never got a reply back!

Oh well! Lets see how this radio special goes!

Haha, I had to look this up. Indeed, brown note :D.
I only heard this expression a couple of years back when Eddie Temple-Morris had Andy C in the Xfm studio playing DnB. Eddy was making his guest chuckle with that description of his music.  No googling required. I suspect this story (https://cornishnews.com/2015/01/10/nightclub-closed-after-brown-noise-song-gives-five-hundred-people-explosive-diarrhoea/) isn't true but It would be kinda funny if it was.

On a slightly um, darker note, I remember seeing Irreversible (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0290673/?ref_=nm_knf_i1) in the cinema - one of the most difficult films I have ever managed to sit through (despite the presence of Monica Belluci and Vincent Cassel). The first half hour is just a really tough watch - not for the faint hearted (or stomached). And I read later on that Thomas Bangalter who did the soundtrack (https://youtu.be/XNw_R7oIK94?t=10m24s) deliberately made something that would make the audience feel nauseous. See more HERE (http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/how-horror-films-manipulate-our-senses-i-swore-i-d-never-allow-myself-to-be-drawn-back-into-the-a6706342.html) (two paragraphs under jack Nicholson) "Thomas Bangalter inserted infrasound – a layer of sub-bass noise below the range of the human ear – into his film Irreversible in order to inspire a feeling of dread in the audience before a particularly gruesome scene."

So if you want to try some barf-notes, watch Irreversible with a big sound system. See how long you last (the film does get easier after the opening half hour). There were walkouts when it was shown at Cannes, and also when I saw it.

See also the YT description for this. Can't hear a thing on my laptop speakers, but on headphones...yep. Headache for me.

I think that aerial might be the one at Alexandra Palace (the BBC's very first broadcast aerial (http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2207482), fact fans!). Not sure if that's a hint at a venue or just a nice picture. I'm betting on more gigs, not a live album.

I suspect that this is a teaser for further shows, maybe even an extensive fall tour (please please), rather than a live album announcement. The Chems stated several times in recent years that they're spending time time in the sudio working on new material, which does sound like they're going to release a new album.

"LIVE AUTUMN 2018"

Is this just an announcement of the coming tour ? (This could mean more non festival shows, not just the Paris one)
OHHHH it's a tour. They wouldn't announce it like this (specifically Autumn) while still having a bunch of festival shows in the summer if they didn't intend to properly tour in the Autumn.

I am so excited right now. They've really only done mostly-festival tours since I was a fan fan, jumped on the bus after We Are The Night had come and gone.

I mean I know there's a chance I'm wrong, but this excitement still feels good.

In isolation that comment does seem super nerdy! But Alexandra Palace is a famous gig venue these days, and I've been there a bunch of times (and there's a plaque on the wall relating to the broadcast aerial). I will be amazed if the Chems London date doesn't turn out to be at "Ally Pally" as it is affectionately known.

the real question is that are they announcing a world tour or just announcing a performance for one place, and if they are, where?

A real drum kit that gets played by a machine/computer. Perhaps it works out cheaper than dragging a session drummer down to Lewes?

Really excited about what's in store for us this time around. I hope they'll be using George and Mildred in another scenario other than just in the brief UTI version.

The pic looks gorgeous by the way!

And btw #2, that Perc Pro thing's just fabulous! How much fun it must be to get a real sounding beat out of it in any shape imaginable. Even Sigur Rós uses it, according to the delevoper. I guess I would have given one of my body parts when I was more active with my bedroom productions back in the days. A really cool product for musicians that can programm nice beat patterns but aren't (that) adept in real drumming.

Hey Europeans, don't Leave Home for the UK cos The Brother's gonna kick you out!

Someone called r_adesigns on insta commented "Brit's opinions stopped mattering to us sometime around the summer of 1776. By all means, if you want your opinions to matter to us again, you can try to force them upon us again..."

He seems to be missing the point that Trump is currently in the UK and encouraging Brexit (and apparently telling Theresa May how she should be 'Brexiting').
So surely it's Trump trying to force his opinions on the UK, rather than the other way around? This doesn't mean I'm defending the UK's imperial hstory btw. Few Irish people would.
The insta guy's real name appears to be Rey Alonso. Is that Hispanic? Are there many Hispanic Trump supporters? (Yes I do know about the Mexican kids in cages).

Someone called r_adesigns on insta commented "Brit's opinions stopped mattering to us sometime around the summer of 1776. By all means, if you want your opinions to matter to us again, you can try to force them upon us again..."

He seems to be missing the point that Trump is currently in the UK and encouraging Brexit (and apparently telling Theresa May how she should be 'Brexiting').
So surely it's Trump trying to force his opinions on the UK, rather than the other way around? This doesn't mean I'm defending the UK's imperial hstory btw. Few Irish people would.
The insta guy's real name appears to be Rey Alonso. Is that Hispanic? Are there many Hispanic Trump supporters? (Yes I do know about the Mexican kids in cages).
This is most likely a bot or troll, so I wouldn't spend too much time on reading anything into it, tbh. It's not even remotely related to the content at hand as you pointed out.

The last question is if they got any news about the new album. Ed says that anyone who has seen the latest concert has at least heard four new tracks that will be definitely on the new album.
Oh, and he gave the answer to the poll in the 'new tracks recap'-thread: "The new single will be Free Yourself and release date is september"
Title: Re: Chemicals to World (Under Social Lights)
Post by: Csar on Aug 16, 2018, 18:43
So, if they release a single in Semptember, that means it won't be long until a proper album release, right - at least earlier than December?
Ok, just read it and Ed says the album will be due next year. Hm...  :(

Quote
Last question: Any new infos on the new album?

Everyone who comes to our current shows is going to hear at least four songs that will definately be on the new record. The single is going to be called Free Yourself and will probably be released in September. The album next year. We will be playing gigs in September and then spend some time in the studio, and yes, we are excited as well. It's going to be danceable for sure!

Thank you for this gem! This is such a beautiful and intriguing interview, one of the best in a long long time, it just comes straight from the heart!
Sad to hear, though, that they feel like the end is nearer than not, but he said, and I take Ed at his words here, they'll keep on playing until no one comes to their gigs anymore (cause that will never ever happen ;)).
Also, I wonder what made them feel that their live shows in the early 2000s weren't that enjoyable. Thus, I'm glad to know they have so much fun right now!
Loved all the tidbits about their touring routine. These little Wurzels! :D

Well, they're 47/48 years old so it has to be closer to the end - otherwise, they would need to play in their 70's :) On the other side Jean Michelle Jarre is 70 years old and playing some weak ass trancey stuff and jumping like an idiot on the stage (worst gig I've ever attended). But yeah - hearing Ed say such stuff makes you kinda realize the end is coming and it will be heartbreaking. That feeling that you'll never see them live again... Never another record...

I enjoyed the Irish Times interview! Ed seems so content! And yes it did seem straight from the heart. I love that they greatly value what they do and hope they too know how greatly valued their music is in our lives! I'm sure this is known, but it's sweet to see it verbalized and in print. As for the nearer-to-end bit, it is realistic point of view. I also recall this has been hinted at in prior interviews so who knows what the future holds. I'm just glad to have what we have now, and know there's some fresh new stuff on the horizon!  Most of all I'm glad to hear they are happy and content at this point in their career. Bring it on, gentlemen!!

We got the title "Got To Keep On" from that French SACEM list but we don't actually know if that's correct. Some of the other titles on there were a bit chopped up or incomplete. It is referred to as "Gotta Keep On Makin' Me High" in the article. But then again, Galvanize is referred to as "Push The Button", so I don't know if we can trust this article either!

Does he have a copy of the extremely rare 'Strictly Limited Edition'?

Legend has it nearly 98% of the copies where lost in a nuclear waste accident. Some copies made its way to the public unscathed, and an unknown amount survived exposure, which are currently being quarantined. Some say the existing radioactive copies have mutated, and have been carefully harvested by The Chemical Brothers. As a result, one  of their reconstruction, spawned 'Superflash'. Unfortunately, the toxicity has not subsided, and have been authorized by UKAEA to cease and desist. It will never be released in individual physical format, ever.

So those who have witnessed 'Superflash' live, you probably have an above normal amount of radiation exposure.

Just so you know...

Should I have started a new thread for this? I dunno. Interview re-tweeted by both Brothers this morning. I've only listened to about three minutes of it so far. "How we met" (Adam and the Chems)...

Title: Re: Chemicals to World (Under Social Lights)
Post by: Bosco on Mar 19, 2019, 20:10
So first thing I took away after listening to that interview was, I think Tom and Adam are around for the long haul. I'm not sure where Ed stands in all of this, but it's apparent that Tom and Adam are hungry to create a Chemical Brother experience for a long time.

Things that peaked my interest:

• Again, very positive vibe about the future of the band and where they can take it

• Tom: "not yet" in answer of an (old) album anniversary type gig. "Not on top of list of things to do". Weird part, question was asked by Adam. (I'm probably looking into this too much!)

• Very critical of own visuals. Looks like they retired 'Go' skaters (they are not keen on the fit), and spent a long time on visual concept for 'Star Guitar' that they eventually scrapped before introducing.

• Adam possibly working on VR and interested about AR visuals. Some visuals already shot in 3d and are projects for future?!

• They saw David Byrne last year and loved the show. So did I  ;D


Long interview. But fun!


Edit: I just listened again to them discussing the Star Guitar concept bit, and now I'm not sure if was used or not. Maybe referring to stargate thing that hovered over them in 2011? That was pretty short-lived.

I know audio wise,I would prefer if they laid off the 'Temptation' vocal cues in the newer live version of 'Star Guitar'. I understand trying to keep something fresh, but it doesn't sound right to me. That really doesn't have to do with visuals though, so I don't know if they were alluding to that in the interview.

I thought it was fun that Adam asked that question. Like a fan question that could have been asked in an "Ask Tom" interview.


Quote from: Bosco on Mar 19, 2019, 20:10

Long interview. But fun!

Yes. For people thinking: TL; Didn't Listen, here's a little synopsis kinda thing, with a couple of comments from me in square brackets.

0.00-6.00: Meeting at Sabresonic, Adam live visuals for Sandals (of Feet fame), Tomato (Underworld's lot), "Art-verts".
6.00 - 10.00: Tom discussing DJ-ing in the corner not with everyone facinng the DJ, Chems travelling to Japan to play a 20 min set "like the Jesus And Mary Chain or something". Slide projectors bought from the army, "bikini alert".
11.00- 16.00: Tom playing music to Adam to see what it represents in Adam's mind. Adam just got the new set for this year in last couple of days. Have we seen enough of certain visuals? [well if you think about that guys, why haven't you changed HBHG?]. Star Guitar visuals that were "wrong" and did not get used live [so you just leave us with some lights? You could chuck in Gondry's classic video, no?]
17.00- 25.00: GTKO video mentioned, Adam talks about watching from the crowd and making Don't Think. Tom watches live Chems Youtube footage! Adam: The music is the script. Tom: We want the "too much" moments.
26.00-30.00: Tom talks about process of releasing an album, still obsessed with the running order of an album. [is someone using a chainsaw in the background?].  Tom discusses Concert Videos v Music Videos and people moaning that the GTKO video is different from the live visual. Tom mentions Enjoys criticisms in reply #96 of the GTKO thread and says "that's the power of the internet!". Adam says he really likes Gondry's video. They discuss Further being played live in full at Roundhouse before the album was released. Tom sounds like he has mixed feelings about playing that much new stuff. Adam asks if they would play a classic album.
30.00 to End: They talk about wanting a live immersive experience. Interaction of lights and projection (Galvanize), wanting to recreate the "pea soup" of Turnmills/Social at Ally Pally, Adam looking at VR and mentions Galvanize (again) and Go. Adam says he has a load of projects waiting to go (re Chems visuals I think). Adam wants to mix: Ghost train + Rave + Art Installation "It's a psychedelic experience man".

It's nice to know they only performed for 20 minutes when started. Gives me encouragement if I ever to get to that stage and have the guts to do it in a dive bar somewhere.

Fun fact I didn't know: Adams dad being the creepy leader clown.

I'm glad the interviewer asked about the decision to keep old visuals and the thinking behind it. Though she wasn't aware of the Further visuals??
Surely the visuals they spend a lot of time, belief and money in the Star Guitar ones weren't that bad? better than aggressive red stripes currently?

Next project sounds like a theme park rave experience. Great to hear they are excited about the future with the possibilities.

I don't know about you guys but I didn't get the vibe that Ed isn't committed as much as they are just because he wasn't at the interview to defend himself? Hopefully its just an overreaction.

Listening to the whole thing now. But I did skip to that point.

It's fair enough using a music video as another opportunity to visually portray the music. But it doesn't mean fans can't compare the two (live visuals and music video) and decide if one is 1000% better than the other.

Sorry Tom. Gondry's attempt just doesn't take the biscuit.

We've Got To Try, however... I'm super excited to see how they do the live visuals for that, assuming we get it live.

"I adore Chemical Brothers. I don't really listen to music at all, apart from Enya, Chemical Brothers, Leonard Cohen and maybe some heavy metal. I got to listen to the album with Tom Rowan and even slept in his attic because I forgot to book a hotel. It was really wonderful. I listened to the tracks and knew right away so wrote the melody and lyrics at the airport where I was stuck for three hours. Then Tom just took care of his favourite parts and that's how it happened."

Keep in mind that a labeled song doesn't mean it will show up in the setlist.
Reflexion and TSU were labeled prior to the 2018 tour, for instance:
https://twitter.com/Midimatt001/status/1004851155321704448

Btw, there was a story on Ed's instagram, showing a bit of their rehearsal studio, with EV playing. So I guess that song is confirmed for the 2019 tour.

The Chems apparently have won the Bose Innovation Award of the O2 Silver Clew Awards. For those (like me), who didn't know that this is:

Quote
"The O2 Silver Clef Awards recognise and celebrate the outstanding talent of the winning artists who through their music have touched the lives of many thousands of people. This event helps to raise vital funds ensuring that Nordoff Robbins is able to continue delivering music therapy to support vulnerable people across the UK and allows us the opportunity to give something back to the music industry who support us so generously throughout the year."

...I'm not crying...You're crying...STOP CUTTING ONIONS!!! (Runs away being too emotional).

Being noted by Nordoff Robbins makes me want to know more about what Ed did for his academia work gathering that he specialized on psychotherapy. I wonder if he had elements of music therapy within his research / analysis. I could see him taking his global experiences observing the responses of different audiences and creating an academic study on the effects of music from sociological perspective. I imagine he could easily do qualitative interviews and collect data just from his connections in the music industry.... Did I just go all academic... dammit I did...

Good observation Professor Ryno (nice ring to it) Its a good question to ask too because It totally relates to some degree of Ed's studies. Plus, I can definitely see him working with Nordoff Robbins in some shape or form.

Such a little cutie
Music is so powerfull weapon in battle with any sadness/sickness/illness
I know it by myself as it was one of the driving forces for my fight with depression which I won so I guess I can prove it just with the fact that I'm here smiling to the others :D
And I really feel happy when I see young Kids like Evie playing with instruments because who know maybe in the future those kids will be the next musical Prodigies?
That's why I think that we should let the kids play with music for example show them how the vinyl works or let them play by their own in the music apps maybe teach them something as I noticed that when I showed my cousin how I play "Da Funk"  he just watched which buttons i pressed and started to repeat one or three sounds by himself now when he's 10yo my aunt told me that he started to listen to Daft Punk and others by himself and other good one example which makes me happy was when I listened to the Prodigy's "We Live Forever" when my 5yo cousin (they are brothers btw) just started to headbang then I told him "If you want to dance just do it!" and he started raving as he can xD it was really funny watching how he enjoyed this one :D

I ended up being sick last weekend meaning...I actually got to watch this on the restream. Yes, the audio wasn't the greatest. It was interesting to see how the buildups had progressed since the west coast dates a few months earlier.

I ended up watching all of the Saturday and Sunday broadcasts in nostalgia fever bliss as I reminisced over old acts, The experience of being on the grounds, hearing the new acts from the Rookie-a-go-go package they put together, and the urge to make it back for the 4th time one day. I swooned in particular for the tribute for the Fuji Rock "King" Kiyishiro Imawano.

There are some great anecdotes from Ed and Annie.

Tom & Ed showing up for the first time at the Hacienda at 6:00 PM on a Friday cause they didn't think they would get in as students (and then getting dinner in the club).

Love for Orlando and DJ Icey

How the show at Victoria Park last year was two minutes away from being called off (I remember actionjackson saying the rain made everything miserable).

I appear to have previously misunderstood the Push The Button anecdote about the guest vocalist doing a "runner". I thought it was Q-Tip who had run off. But no, it's someone who heard Q-Tip and felt intimidated by his contribution!
Well Anwar Superstar (Left Right) would be the obvious candidate wouldn't he? The only other rapper on PTB, and perhaps rightly intimidated by the superior quality of Q-Tip's flow. Anyone know any more?

Now that would make my day if Ed was stating his case for the K-os story. Somehow I'd believe Ed more. Would also be chuffed if he brought up the story just cause I brought it up with Kevin.

It's a small ~5 minute phone recorded interview with Tom halfway between a ~1 hour long show.

Probably the most interesting takeaway is the development of TDTYF was started in March of 2020 when the global pandemic started to be realized. But before the creation of the track they just finished rehearsals in preparation for their 2020 gigs, which I presume might've meant changes from the 2019 setlist?

Nothing really more to note. Just chit-chat about working through the pandemic. No where nearly as fun as the Zane Lowe one back in 2019.

Back on the previous iteration of the forum there was a discussion about who the main female was in the Setting Sun video, with some people saying it was Emelia Fox.
At some point the discussion might pop up again. So, the official line from Chemical HQ is that it's Lexi Strauss. I believe she went on to be an artist (https://lexistrauss.com/home.html) rather than an actor.

Is this the right thread for this? If not, I guess a mod can move it.

Article about the forthcoming Warehouse Project appearance and interview with Ed.

The Omicron variant and rising (mostly Delta) cases are causing nightclubs to be closed in some European countries (e.g. Ireland), but UK remains fully open despite cases exceeding 50k a day in the last week.
I hope both the Chems DJ sets (Printworks London being the other) go ok next weekend and I hope they don't turn into spreader events. I am (or was) tempted by the London all-dayer, but I'm staying away from such things. But at the same time I'll be curious to hear about new Chems music played.

Quote
Ed says: "With the Warehouse Project, it's spectacular, it's got character and it's amazing what they've done with the sound of music in a warehouse with a good system. We will play quite hard and it will sound epic.

"I think this time round we've got a lot of new Chemical Brothers stuff to play, DJing is a spur for me to focus on the dancefloor. We are buying lots of music, we'll get together and see how it all works."

Seems like it could be a transition between two tracks or just the end to one of them.  Then again, I'm not sure of the likelihood of them posting an unheard part of one of the upcoming songs.  Seems relatively simple though, so I could also see them just preparing it for the obligatory Yam post. 

Also, I know XDUST12 refers to the new album, but can someone explain how it got that name?  It's their tenth studio album, so where is the 12 part coming from?  And what's the XDUST? 

Either way, seeing this got me super hyped.  I know they're in the studio, but still, any acknowledgement of it is awesome.

Catalog numbers for their albums have always been XDUST[CD/LP]#, coinciding with their release on Virgin's Chemical-only sub label, 'Freestyle Dust'. The releases include compilations like Singles 93-03, Brotherhood, etc., hence them being up to 12 already!

On 14 mins, Fanning: "Did Star Guitar start with an acoustic guitar...thinking of Starman by David Bowie?"
Ed: "heh...it started with...yeah there is a guitar part in it..."

Under the Influence in full blow, with a new synth part over it. From a new track?

Anyway, my hawk eyes spotted "No Reason" on the duct tape on the Roland TB-3. Probably a new track !

EDIT: So it's that "woo" track

*EDIT* Ben_J, you can hear the Woo track in that rehearsal clip? The last ten or 15 secs do sound a bit funny but I'm struggling to ID the Woo track in there. Are there any particular audio markers?

This video makes me super hyped for the upcoming shows!
There was another video on Instagram two days ago where the base for Go could be heard (but just the base), but sadly I didn't grab the video in time.

I think the word "reason" can be heard in the distorted audio sample during the song? Not in the rehersal clip, but the recording from their DJ set.

Funny you should say that. I PM'd one of our German speaking forumites here and said: Is that Go-related? He captured the audio and whacked it on Sendspace for me.

Ah, I hear it now. "No reason at all" sung multiple times in an almost backmasked style. Well spotted by you and Ben_J, especially as English isn't your (plural) first language.

No, I am just refering to the "No Reason" on duct tape we can see a glimpse of in the video. You can hear "no reason at all" in the video clip of the woo track, so I guess it's this one

I have seen this show when it was released (downloaded a safety-copy so it doesn't disappear one day  ;) ), and then re-watched it after it was released on Disney+ here in Germany. Fantastic show, really loved watching it (twice). Episode 4 could also be an episode of Shameless (US) whe  you change names from Carmy to Lip  ;D

We probably all feel like an announcement is due literally any day.
The montage of the album covers with the text "what's next" and the pitch to sign up for the newsletter really sounds to me like it will be within a week. Announcements are typically done on Fridays?

From the other thread:

The same video was posted five days before TDTYF was announced, so No Reason is probably announced next week, hopefully along with the album announcement.

I get the feeling I've missed Chemical emails since then, but I don't know why.
Could hotmail/msn be chucking them into my junk folder without me realising? Of course the junk emails get automatically deleted after a few days...
I've re-registered (I think). Next time there's an email, please could someone advise? Then I can hopefully search my junk and other folders to see what's happened. Please & thank you.

As a fellow (increasingly more reluctant) user of Hotmail, my experience has been that they are pretty fucking terrible at deciding what is or isn't junk. I get emails full of mixed CaPs & n0mB3rs that sit nice and pretty in my inbox, and then emails from places and businesses I follow, and frequently read emails from, that go straight to junk for whatever reason.

I'm also convinced (tin hat time) that as I'm careening towards my space limit in hotmail (96% full, thanks Microsoft!) that they are sending more and more shit my way instead of deleting it, in a bid to get me to spend actual real money on 'upgrading' my account to allow for more trash to come through.
And before y'all ask. I've had my email address for... gosh, 20 years? And there are some literally historic emails that I just can't part ways with. Old work projects, back and forths with my old label boss/manager, mp3s that Iguanapunk just used to randomly send me, and mailing list emails from bands that no longer exist.

And that's my story.

I'd suggest using a separate mail app like Thunderbird, Outlook or the like. You can download your mails and back them up with all the attachments and stuff on a hard drive or whatever. That way, you can make room in your online mail box without having to sacrifice anything.

The track itself is of course no surprise as we've already heard it from DJ and live bootlegs, but it feels sooooooooo good to finally have something official!
So, full song next Friday, maybe with an album announcement?



Note to music publishers/record labels/whatever: What in seven hells is a pre-save I don't want a fucking pre-save to a fucking streaming service whose only purpose is to lock users into a music supplier and quench as much revenue as possible for the shareholders please just give us physical releases on a CD and vinyl (with B-sides thankyouverymuch) and I'll willingly throw money at you.

Greetings chemical brothers, sisters, and siblings,
Gender non-conformity kind of acknowledged. Neat!

Took a look back at old emails and see the marketing team has been including this in emails since at least 2020 when they announced GTKO pink vinyl. Might be even earlier but I don't have many emails prior to that. Nothing special, but I thought it was interesting.

Is there any confirmation that's actually Ed's page? He has a personal profile but it has a capital s for Simons and he doesn't seem to be the kind of guy to open a page and then use a lower case s.

I've posted this picture a few days ago in the "2023 setlist speculation thread" :)
My guess is that Taj Mahal is a sample or transition, it doesn't sound like a song name. The same goes for Mono Flange.

And as I've said before, a sticker does not necessarily mean that a song will be played. However, since the company just posted this, the little gizmo is likely a recent addition which makes STA more likely I'd say. Just a few more days until we know :music

On instagram I see the Chems re-posting an insta story from Ranerahul at some DJ/dance event where The Pills Won't Help You Now (Guy J remix) is playing. I guess it's a DJ edit from Guy J.
And it sounds like this:

Tom did an interview yesterday with KEXP's Kevin Cole in run-up of their WAMU show in Seattle + an old radio Chems mix that KEXP aired a long time ago.

At KEXP archive, go to April 19 and at the bottom dial in 2:45 (only 5 min steps, starts a couple of minutes after that).
https://www.kexp.org/archive/

The mix starts at 3:05 (dial it in to jump to it)

Quote from: Tom
We're really close to finishing the record
Quote from: Cole
Can you reveal an approximate release date?
Quote from: Tom
Ahm, I'm not sure. Well, I know that we're supposed to be mastering it as soon as we get back from Coachella. But I'm not sure what the actual release date is yet. But definitely towards the end of  the summer I'd imagine.
Quote from: Tom
There's at least one recurring hero [on the album]

Apparently, Michael Brownstein (https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/la-et-ms-tom-rowlands-chemical-brothers-20190515-story.html) who created the poem No Geography which they sampled, attended their show at Forest Hills last year.

I'm confused. It seems we have to select a show to start off with, then select the time. Well it's not offering me the Kevin Cole show under the 19th of April at all.
I think I have to go to the 20th and then select Drive Time (with Kevin Cole) which is listed as 12am for me (so it's just into the 20th of April where I am). It seems KEXP adapt the time to my local region.

So Csar, where you said go to 2.45, I think you mean 2.45AM German/CET time, as you are 9 hours ahead of Pacific Time(?). If I'm 8 hours ahead of PT, that should be 1.45am for me, on the 20th of April. And the mix should be at 2.05am on the 20th of April for me.

But I don't get Chemcial stuff when I go to those time stamps...

**EDIT**: OK, So I had to go to the Wo' Pop show listed as a 3AM show on the 19th of April (for me), and then jump the time back to 1:46am UK time. And the mix is at 2.05AM UK time.
**EDIT2** In the US I think you want the 18th not 19th.
CONFUSING!!

I spent almost 30 minutes trying to find the interview (?) And it seems it depends of the hour of our countries... finally found it, in my case it was on April 18 at 6:48 but yeah, this whole thing was confusing :/
 I'm so excited to know who are going to collaborate this time! New collaborators and an old hero as Tom describes it  :D

Post by: Csar on Apr 20, 2023, 21:04
Oh, sorry, I hadn't thought of that. The tweet said 5:45 (also a bit confusing because for me it says Apr 19 and is a pre-show interview which would make no sense, but perhaps that also regional time?), so it must be something ending on :45 then. The interview itself is about 16min long.

The radio DJ mix is basically the so called "unreleased BBC mix" from 1996 discussed in this topic: Chems DJ Mixes (https://forum.thechembase.com/index.php/topic,520)
Title: Re: Chemicals to World (Under Social Lights)
Post by: mesamm99 on Apr 22, 2023, 22:07
Well... I feel like it's my lucky day. This mix that was on KEXP was originally from a Minneapolis radio station that I listened to back in the day. Didn't get into the Chems until after this time frame (probs 1997 based on when the Chems played First Ave even though the radio host says 1996). This was a gem to listen to and gave me all the warm feels thinking that a radio station in Seattle played a mix from Minneapolis, when I in fact travelled from Minneapolis to Seattle to see the Chems. For sure something in the world is connecting those dots.

I think Ed posted the male sign language guy on his twitter but it looks like he may have deleted that now.

We had sign language people at Wide Awake festival last May. But only on the main stage.
 
I remember the sign language woman during Caribou seemed to be having a great time, and she didn't have that much to do (Sun, sun, sun, sun...) so she mostly just stood on the left of the stage, dancing.
During Fat White Family I remember a friend turning to me and saying: How many deaf people buy tickets to a music festival? I...couldn't answer that one.
I'm trying to remember how they signed "we wanna get Loaded" during Primal Scream's set. It could come in useful at some point.

Visualizing this is too funny. And then I'm reminded how horrible it must be to be deaf...

one year a friend of mine (who is not hard of hearing, but does understand ASL) was in the ADA area for Jay Z at Coachella and after she mentioned she noticed that the ASL was at times different from what was actually being said on stage. I thought this was quite insightful, the interpreters probably have the set list & lyrics ahead of time. which makes a lot of sense as interpreting live would probably be a whole other level of expert.

Retweeted by Ed so must be true.

Ewan McVicar is best known for the track below. I mean it 'samples' Chaka Khan 1 so I don't want to rip into it too much . Chaka made I Feel For You2 and was sampled in Music Sounds Better With You - she's fantastic!
But Pete Tong played this track a lot on his show around 2021/22, and boy did I get tired of it! Kind of a "handbag house" track; too 'pop'/commercial for me. Well, maybe the Chems want a commercial hit?..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yA_KCHCkwCo

1) Not actually Chaka's voice on the track, it's  a cover version of her 1974 track, written by...Stevie Wonder.
2) Ever thought about all the talent on I Feel For You?
Spoiler
Wriiten by Prince, Harmonica by Stevie Wonder, vocal samples by Stevie Wonder, Lead Vocals by Chaka Khan, Rap By Grandmaster Melle Mel of "White Lines"/"The Message" fame

EDIT: The track he's remixing is No Reason. I will admit that I'm curious to see what he'll do with it. I guess if I don't like it, I can ignore it. I wonder if the remix(es) will come with another video?

That song was a big hit in the UK, very commercial but I have seen him live before and he is pretty serious.

He is a great selector and is a big fan of chems I think, vast majority of sets i saw online he has chems songs (+ lots of similar acts like the Prodigy)

Am I having a daft moment? There's a clip on the Chems Instagram stories at the moment where they've taken a clip of No Reason from someone else's Insta story - Superduperricardo - and it says Umusicmexico (universal music mexico) and shows the marching band guy dancing. But that's not quite regualar No Reason is it?. I tried shazaming it and Shazam says: Dunno!
It's not the live Coachella version either though is it? Which version is this? Am I losing my marbles?

Well I guess this puts the kibosh on my hopes for the 2023 Glastonbury Spider DJ set to get a radio airing. Right now, this weekend would have been the time to do it -  in conjunction with those Lauren Laverne and Jo Whiley radio shows.
I mean the '95 mix is great and all, but hmm, I would have liked a substantial new DJ mix to promote the new album. Call me greedy...

These were scrapped visuals from Eve Of Destruction before they went with the Super Sentai concept, orange/blue armor visual aside it seemed it was going to have more environmental undertones hence the plastic

I really really REALLY hope though that these scrapped visuals are repurposed into The Universe Sent Me though, it feels just as futuristic and spacelike

They've seemed to be repurposing and recontextualizing the visuals (Dreaming especially) so it would be awesome if they worked some editing magic on these visuals to create something stunning for TUSM

EDIT: Turns out according to smithandlyall that these visuals were scrapped because condensation kept appearing on the gel/plastic which would make sense, but still a shame

These were scrapped visuals from Eve Of Destruction before they went with the Super Sentai concept,
Dang. I thought she looked like a wrapped gift sent from the Universe.

This is actually in tomorrow's Metro. I found this out the hard way when I sought out and then  scoured through today's Metro to no avail.
Anyway, if you open image in new tab and "enhance" it enough you can kinda read it - and you can see that it says Friday up the top left. No particularly new or exclusive tidbits of info here.

An interview that plugs the new book but also the new album, so I couldn't decide whether to put it in the book thread or the FTBF album thread...therefore I put it here instead.
You may need a VPN or something. From 10:50 to 25:00. Click the link in the tweet.

Not sure where to post this or if this even has been posted before, but the Chems have an account at Giphy with an extensive collection of gifs from visuals and music videos:

I've found it more or less by accident, I was searching for a picture of the Burst Generator visuals (pulsating dot circle, later used for the Reel) and among the image results were a lot of gifs which led me to the page.
I'm sure you'll put them to good use on this forum ;D

RT'd by The Chems.

^ They don't actually discuss the soundtrack in this podcast (or maybe they do but I missed it whilst skipping through?)  but they do refer to their original review/podcast from 2020.

It's a pain to scroll all the way back to episode 6 in order to listen, but I did. So to save you some time this is hopefully a direct link. (https://pod.link/1526729282/episode/c9d0ff00c28b4383974995be81dde084)
The soundtrack gets mentioned from 29 mins to 31 mins - a story about accidentally blasting the Chems around an AirBnB whilst others were sleeping.
Why does the American guy pronounce Eric Bana's surname like he's Spanish or Mexican?

Oh also some old tweets from these guys about the film:

Maria Grzeszczyk (she's a production or tour manager for the Chems) posted a nice timelapse video of their stage setup:
