Best New Tracks: Fatboy Slim & Riva Starr "Eat Sleep Rave Repeat"

6/21/13

I'm still not sure what to make of this new song from Fatboy Slim and Riva Starr, but I can't stop listening to it. "Eat Sleep Rave Repeat" is a best new track whose backstory is too-weird-to-be-made-up. I'll let Fatboy himself, Norman Cook, tell you:

"Me and stef (riva starr) were out vinyl shopping in williamsburg, brooklyn earlier this year when we met this dude ranting in the street about some 3 day bender he had been on (and possibly still was....) we hooked him into our serato and chopped him up into a tune. I just wish we’d caught his full name."

And there you have it. "Eat Sleep Rave Repeat" has a classic house beat, driven by the spoken-word recollection of some dude's bender. What's not to like about that?

Listen to Fatboy Slim & Riva Starr "Eat Sleep Rave Repeat."

No word on Fatboy Slim on a new album (personally I'd like to hear another THE BPA record). Slim is touring, though. You can download "Eat Sleep Rave Repeat" over at Beatport.

If we hear any word on a new album we'll let you know (you do the same for us, ok?). For now, it's good to have Norman Cook back in our lives.
