THIS IS A TEST NOT REAL DATA Norman Cook, better known as Fatboy Slim, is one of the defining figures of late-1990s electronic music. Emerging from the UK’s club and DJ culture, his work helped push electronic music into the mainstream without losing its connection to the dancefloor. Through projects that bridged house, breakbeat, and sample-based production, Cook became known for a sound that was both accessible and rooted in club tradition. Beyond commercial success, his influence lies in how he reframed the role of the DJ-producer — not as a faceless technician, but as a curator of energy, taste, and momentum. Decades on, Fatboy Slim remains a reference point for artists navigating the space between underground credibility and wide cultural reach.
