THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS - Exit Planet Dust - 30th Anniversary Edition - Red & Gold 140g Vinyl

The Chemical Brothers - Exit Planet Dust (30th Anniversary Edition - Red & Gold 140g Vinyl)

Originally released in the summer of 1995, Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers remains a landmark album of the 1990s. Celebrating its 30th anniversary, this red and gold 140g double-vinyl reissue revisits a key record that introduced the world to the now-legendary “big beat” sound—a fusion of hip-hop and acid house that brought club music into the mainstream. Reaching No.9 on the UK charts, this debut release helped fuel The Chemical Brothers' meteoric rise and left an indelible mark on the British dance scene.

The album opens with the high-energy track "Leave Home", the duo's debut single and a Top 20 UK hit, which perfectly sets the tone for the sonic journey that follows. It also includes notable collaborations, such as "Life Is Sweet" featuring Charlatans’ frontman Tim Burgess, and the mesmerizing closer, "Alive Alone," with vocals by folktronica legend Beth Orton.

A standout is the iconic "Chemical Beats," originally released under the duo’s former alias, The Dust Brothers, in 1994. This track had already made waves in the club scene, and even now, three decades later, its pulsating energy continues to captivate listeners.
