Electric Friday: Fatboy Slim all night long

On 9 October 2026, Fatboy Slim takes over the Robert Johnson in Offenbach am Main — all night long. Behind the name is Norman Cook, who helped shape the big beat sound in the mid-'90s. He broke through early with 'Everybody Needs a 303' and the album 'Better Living Through Chemistry', and became truly prominent with 'You've Come a Long Way, Baby' and the track 'Praise You'. His sets blend acid house, breaks, samples and pop references, with direct transitions and a sure instinct for hooks that stick in the head.

Live, Fatboy Slim relies on immediate energy rather than long dramaturgical arcs: short build-ups, quick changes, clear peaks. Between classic house drive, breaky grooves and funky basslines, he draws lines across three decades of club culture without sounding nostalgic. Parallel to his solo career he was part of Beats International and as early as the late 1980s brought sample-based pop into the charts. For Electric Friday he brings edits, classics and fresh reworks — from early bleeps to contemporary club tools. A compact night with an artist who knows how to keep the dance floor moving.
