Put your hands in the air - Fatboy Slim is back!

Continuing the R:Evolution, EXIT proudly announces one more name to join the line-up, alongside the already-announced Atoms for Peace, the reincarnated Snoop Dogg (aka Snoop Lion) and Bloc Party. Ladies and gentleman, put your hands up in the air and prepare yourself for another crazy Fatboy Slim experience as the dance scene legend returns to EXIT festival, Eastern Europe's greatest summer adventure serving up five days of music, entertainment and adventure from 10–14 July.

 

Even if you know him as Norman Cook, it is very likely that Fatboy Slim sounds more familiar.  Although he is a solo artist, his name ended up on Q magazine’s list “50 Bands to See Before You Die”. He performed at Exit Festival seven years ago and since then has played all over the world. So, if you missed your chance to see him, don’t worry because this July he is coming at Exit Festival again, and once more he promises to deliver a fantastic show!

A man who puts smiles on most people’s faces, he recently became the first DJ to play at the Houses of Parliament. He still heads into his studio to chop up other people’s tracks for use in his DJ sets, and concentrates on DJing rather than making records. It goes on and on and shows no sign of stopping. “Oh no. I love it too much. I can still get away with it. It doesn’t matter that you’re old and bald and grey and fat, because you were never a sex symbol in the first place. We’re pushing new limits. No one knows what the cut-off age limit of a DJ is. And apparently, it’s not yet.” Norman Cook roars with laughter. “I take great delight in that.”

We also take great delight to seeing this master of reinvention connecting with EXIT audience once again, and giving us a portion of hip-hop and electro with samples and big beats blending funk to create the summer smash that no party could go without.
