Fatboy Slim, stage name of Norman Cook, is a superstar producer and celebrity DJ widely recognised as one of the pioneers of the big beat and electronica music scene. Across a career spanning decades, he has transformed dance music with his innovative production style, infectious live performances and chart-dominating releases. Having sold more than 10 million records worldwide and achieved fourteen UK Top 40 singles under the Fatboy Slim name, he remains one of Britain's most influential electronic artists. His ability to blend dance, funk, hip hop and house music has made him a global festival favourite and a sought-after entertainer for major events.
Before becoming Fatboy Slim, Norman built a reputation on the club circuit throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, releasing charting singles including 'Won't Talk About It', 'Blame It On The Bassline' and 'For Spacious Lies'. Reinventing himself as Fatboy Slim, he released his debut album 'Better Living Through Chemistry', which introduced his distinctive big beat sound and laid the foundations for international success. His breakthrough came with the number one album 'You've Come A Long Way, Baby', featuring era-defining tracks including 'The Rockafeller Skank', 'Praise You' and 'Right Here Right Now'. The album spent four weeks at the top of the UK Albums Chart and established him as one of the biggest names in dance music.
Norman's influence has extended far beyond the charts. He has won two Brit Awards, a Grammy Award for Best Music Video and an extraordinary ten MTV Video Music Awards, while also earning a Guinness World Record for the most Top 40 hits achieved under different band names. In 2008, he formed The Brighton Port Authority, collaborating with artists including David Byrne, Dizzee Rascal and Iggy Pop. He has continued to reinvent his sound through projects such as 'Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat', which topped the UK Dance Chart, and more recently teamed up with Rita Ora on the hit single 'Praising You'. His appearances at Brighton Pride, the London 2012 Olympic Games Closing Ceremony, Glastonbury, V Festival and countless international festivals have cemented his legendary reputation.
