About the EP

'Retox' first turned up on Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars, and Norman Cook says the title came from a holiday with the Chemical Brothers: a detox week at a Tuscan villa ended with a case of wine and Vanessa Rand announcing she couldn't wait to go home and start retox. 'Gangster Trippin' goes back further, to You've Come a Long Way, Baby, built on samples from DJ Shadow and the X-Ecutioners.

Here both tracks are handed to a new set of producers: Tino and Sweely each take a pass at 'Retox,' while Make A Dance Jackin and Locky rework 'Gangster Trippin.' It's a DJ record first, built for the club rather than the sofa. Cook spent the mid-1980s playing bass in the Housemartins and has spent every year since making up for it.
