STREAM The Chemical Brother Live Soundtrack :: ‘Don’t Think’ (MP3)

It’s not news that the Chemical Brother’s live show is one of the best in dance music. But the fact that the UK duo’s concert film, Don’t Think, is getting astonishingly great reviews is worth nothing since live performances, particularly electronic ones, don’t tend to translate too well outside of the event itself.

Don’t think comes out on DVD and Blu-ray today, and while you really should watch it on your HDTV when you get home, you can stream the audio portion of  hits like “Star Guitar,” Chemical Beats” and “Galvinize” right after the jump.

STREAM :: Chemical Brothers ‘Hanna’ Soundtrack (MP3)

When you spend much of your adult life interviewing electronic music producers, you learn that pretty much every single one of them has the same ambition—making music for movies. Maybe it’s because so much definitive electron music of the past we designed for that purpose (Vangelis’ score for Blade Runner is almost always mentioned). Or maybe at some point, movie music seems like a mature next step after a few decades spent up all night in sweaty clubs with people half your age. Whatever the reason, it seems like the generation of ’90s electronica acts who have been rocking dance floors for close to 20 years are finally getting their big chance to have a go at soundtrack-making.
