Nej tack😘 Jag har insett att tecno är verkligen inget för mig! Favoritlåt från albumet var ”You’re not from Brighton”, bara för att Brighton är med i låten. Albumet får 1/5 stjärnor
1* yikes
Nope
Just noise. Wonder who buys this. wonder who produces this. wonder who manages the 1001 list. definitivly 0 points
Terrible.
Why does every big beat album insists on being one hour long or more? It gets really tiring toward the end.
This album-album-album-album was bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-bo-ring
Have you ever lost a bit of life expectancy while listening to an album?
The AI Emperor being familiar with Apocalypse Now, when the robot armies in their fleet of drones finally come to burn our houses and enslave our children, this is what they will be playing.
If I couldn't get with its coke addled vibes then I'm not going to get with them in my decrepitude.
Do not listen to this ever again
It's just beats. No lyrics, other than like sampled repeated lines. Who cares. Boring.
After a few tracks, I was just getting annoyed. It is very repetitive.
i think i just lost my last braincell
not for me
Pretty trash. Also very explicit
Meh. Overrated. If I could give zero stars, I would.
Know what the kids say when the ecstasy wears off? "This music is irritating as fuck." How many times do they have to have "Right about now The funk soul brother," looped at them before they realize the joke is on them?
Repetitive synthesizer, music and explicit lyrics
Awful!! The grooves were inane and painfully redundant, and the lyrics were worse. I could barely get through the album. If I never hear the album again, it will be too soon
Some of these songs are good for 30 seconds. For three minutes, they’re terrible.
Seguro que tuvo su época, definitivamente no es esta. Música de ascensor con buen gusto.
Couldn’t even listen to the whole thing. Bad.
Is Elevator Rap a recognized genre? Or maybe Yacht Rap? The tracks that weren't actively annoying felt like songs I would tune out while at a chain restaurant. This is the first album I've hit in this activity where half the tracks I listened to about 50-60% and skipped the rest of the track because it got too annoying. The only reason I am not giving this 0/5 is because the score wouldn't register.
Still as annoying as it was in the 90s
Un album divertido, para escuchar mientras haciendo otra cosa. Conocía la canción 1 y la 8 de la vida. De igual manera no es para nada mi estilo. Las canciones son muy largas y repetitivas.
I really didn’t like this album. It was very repetitive and noisy. And I didn’t even listen to the explicit songs with expletives. I won’t be listening to anymore by this artist.
I can’t stand half of these songs as they were over played in my youth!
Hätte ich niemals ohne Empfehlung gehört. Erinnere mich an Soundtrack für ein Computerspiel. Höchstens dafür zu gebrauchen. Furchtbar!
Not very many words ):
Hated this so much. This kind of music is not enjoyable to me in any way
I did it. I made it through the whole album.
He could've just been a good beat producer for some poppy hip hop, but instead had to become the most cursed invention of the 1990s: the celebrity DJ. The beats are pretty good and there are some cool electronic sounds/samples but just repeating the same stupid vocal clips over and over and over and over and over again on so many tracks is incredibly annoying - who is that for? "check it out now it's the funk soul brother" is a sentence too dumb to hear once, and now I've had to hear 475 times? Fuck you. The best part of this album is that it led me to Camille Yarbrough's Take Your Praise.
难听晕了
horrible, just random sound put together and repeated and its really annoying
I couldn't finish it.
Inintéressant et redondant, abus de sampling et faible créativité
This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful. This was painful.
Some beats are alright, this whole thing is annoyingly annoyingly annoyingly annoyingly annoyingly annoyingly annoyingly repetitive
I keep getting surprised about the amount of shit that is made. Also, the fact that there is an audience for this crap is mind blowing. This album ruined my good mood.
Very repetitive, nothing you should listen to on it's own
Right here, right now is kinda iconic & I really liked the album cover.. Electronic music just doesn’t do it for me.
Bad
I flat out hated this album. Not very good at all in my opinion. This album was like great value daft punk. It took all the worse parts from them and turned it into shit. These one note and boring songs were the bane of my existence and it felt like an eternity getting through this album. If I could rate it less than one star, I would
sucks shit
Very repetitive, songs could be about 1/4 the length they are and you would still get the same experience.
I was in my early 20's when fatboy slim was very popular and I didn't get it then and I still don't. The repetition in this album almost makes me angry. I am on song 5 now and I think there have been 3 phrases of lyrics, maybe. I really really dislike this. Song 7 and I am checking out of this one, man do I hate this type of music. it felt like a punishment and my anxiety is through the roof.
Not for me… strange proto-EDM
Hated this album
Not my style at all. Boo
The first two songs are good but then the album becomes very repetitive and boring, I cant see myself listening to this again
говно ебаное для даунов конченных
This type of music did not age well. It sounds stuck in the late 90s. It also seems very generic to me, which might be a product of it being played in arenas at sporting events.
The singles are catchy but overall this is not a good album
Praise You is a banger. Everything else kinda made my ears bleed. I’m sorry Slim, this ain’t it for me.
I'll bet this is great if you're on day three of a mdma bender trying to keep the vibes sailing, but in literally any other scenario this is interminable.
Stopped listening after track 4. Not my taste; music seems like it's on one continuous loop. Overall rather annoying, will not finish the album.
Old man trying to be cool vibes
Not my style 1/5
Owwff, I think this was the first album I ever bought, and I remember liking it back then - but now it's borderline un-listenable for me. The songs just sounded repetitive, and not catchy - which is a shame, as I was looking forward to listening to this.
Eh
Another album I know I've heard a couple songs on the radio. For sure Praise You and maybe Right Here, Right now. But to be honest, I think I change them pretty quickly. Electronic dance music just not for me. Tough for me to listen to a long stretches. This no exception. After this an Zombies, I had to go back and binge on some Prince to get my head straight. If he named the song Rockafeller Skank, Rockafeller Shank, I would have scored higher. But he didn't, so I won't. If I were on acid, I probably would have scored higher, but I'm not, so I won't. This one was tough for me all around......... 1
Why…
The first song of this album has plagued my time in Fitness World like, “Fortunate Son,” plagued Quagmire in Vietnam. 3/10.
Some great songs from my high school days, but didn’t care for the rest of it.
This probably deserves a higher rating but it simply isn't my style of music.
terrible
Eh, it’s like Moby on acid
Not an album but rather a collection of repetitive singles and half-cooked club tracks, some of which capture a short moment in music history when Fatboy Slim was relevant. I award this one jump rope. You figure out why. 𓀪
I used to think that Fatboy Slim was a joke. Like a prank on orchestrated by Spike Jonze. It wasn't hard to imagine him moonlighting as a half-assed DJ / Producer. The Director has broad endeavors. He was behind Jackass, is silent partner for Girl skateboards, had a major part in the Three Kings film, and was plugged in in to the 90's music scene while making super-creative, award winning music videos. Yeah, I was under the impression that FBS was Spike Jonze who was made terrible music to pair with creative visions for MTV. It seemed totally plausible. I don't think I was the only person to believe this or consider the possibility that our celebrities have alter egos. Andy Kaufman and Tony Clifton comes to mind, and later, Andrew WK who was accused of doing something similar. Anyhow, I really dismissed that this was real music created with earnest effort. I think SJ had some great videos, was super talented and very creative. Somehow, it never occurred to me that if SJ had created music, it would've sounded a lot better than this.
Never been a fan
Area man goes on a murderous rampage after enduring Fatboy Slim's You've Come a Long Way, Baby. Is acquitted of all charges.
Gangster Trippin’, Soul Surfing
Fat Boy NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE!
I'm sorry, but this album was torturous. I'm not a fan of this type of music, but I did my best to approach it with an open mind. I say that even though I hate Praise You with a passion. I think my issue with this album is the constant repetition of one bar over and over again for way too long. A song would start, I would start to get into what he's laying down and then BAM, a zillion bars in a row of druggiedruggiedruggiedruggiedruggiedruggieddruggiedruggiedruggie. Nope. Pulls me right out of the groove and just pisses me off. But again, not my style.And seriously an entire song of just repeating the line Fat Boy Slim Fucking in Heaven. And that's it? I wanted to tap out on this one so damned many times.
I’m sorry if anyone disagrees, but it’s not like it’s bad for it’s genre. Like it’s cool and stuff it’s just not my style of music. I don’t like that it didn’t really contain music and no music is okay sometimes if you provide instruments but there’s no instruments either. Like I don’t really listen to this type or genre of music but I think it could be good for its genre is just not good for me.
I don't like this music, it's not for me. Sorry.
Ish, vraiment pas mon genre. Praise You est pas pire, mais that's it pour moi.
Eh boy. Je peux comprendre que cet album soit dans la liste à cause de Rockafeller Skank. À sa sortie c’était un nouveau son, une nouvelle façon de faire. Mais tout un album, c’est redondant et vite ennuyant.
I was going to give it 2 stars and then Acid 8000 came on. It’s a painful reminder that this album is chock full or idiotic repeating phrases with little else other than throbbing beats that may be danceable but not enjoyable. Intolerable.
2/10. Felt so long because very song was so damn repetitive.
Garbage
Basically unlistenable after 3 songs
Not my style
Repetitive garbage.
Je suis vraiment pas fan...
Maybe, if you give me some ecstasy and get me on a dance floor with a bunch of beautiful scantily clad ladies I'd really enjoy the hell out of this. More likely though, I would just throw up on them and it's more likely to be the music than the drugs. As a disclaimer I do like some DJ music (and am really looking forward to DJ Shadow if he's on this list)
jesus this is annoying. sorry :D - i've heard tons of snippets of some of these songs for years, and as it turns out that's as much as i can take. Most of these "songs" start out fine for 10-20 seconds and stay the same throughout, only adding more horribly unimaginative editing or absolutely terrible vocal loops/drones throughout. I do like electronic music but not annoying/repetitive noise that reminds me of old records that were skipping. In my insistence of listening to the entirety of every one of these 1001 albums I kept it on but it was borderline torture. hard hard pass.
The album feels like an inside joke. Maybe other listeners are in on it, maybe only the artist is in on it. I don't know, but I do know that I most certainly am not in on it. There are parts that I like, but there is no song that I like all the way through. "Rockafeller Skank" is probably my favorite track on the album, but it is almost three minutes too long for my taste. I probably won't listen to any of it again. 2/10.
techno is not my thing
It was really claustrophobic
Repetitivo demais...
eh
