norman "jacker-of-all-genres" cook, in addition to his former
occupations as bassist for the housemartins and one third of
acid-house hitmakers pizzaman, is also the man behind one of the
most popular of the new flock of english "brit hop" producers,
fatboy slim. releasing his fatboy material through club staple
skint, cook's raucous blend of house, acid, funk, hip-hop,
electro, and techno has added to his already formidable reputation
as one of the foremost all-around producers on the u.k. club
scene. born in bromley on july 13, 1963, cook joined the
hull-based pop group the housemartins in 1986, replacing founding
member ted key. after the group split the following year, cook
became involved with the burgeoning acid-house scene, pairing with
producers tim jeffery and jc reid toward the end of the decade to
form pizzaman. the trio nailed three top 40 hits together
("trippin' on sunshine," "sex on the streets," and "happiness")
before cook splintered off to record with similarly-styled outfits
freakpower and beat international in the early '90s. he's shut
most of his other production acitivities down in recent years to
focus on his latest incarnation, fatboy slim, which to date
includes a trio of singles and the full-length better living
through chemistry. cook was also called in to add his remixing
skills to jean-jacques perry's proto-electronica classic "eva,"
released as a 12-inch and cd single in 1997. in addition to his
fbs work, cook also recorded the skip to my loops sample cd, a
popular studio tool sporting a melange of sample-ready drum loops,
analog squelches, and assorted noises. in early 1998, his remix of
cornershop's "brimful of asha" spent several weeks at number one
in the british charts.
