Why it's here

Four tracks in four versions; the breakbeat science the Chemical Brothers inherited

Storm the Studio is four tracks in four versions, the breakbeat science the Chemical Brothers inherited, Meat Beat Manifesto building the template big beat would later cash in. Jack Dangers made something dense and forward-looking here, breakbeats years ahead of their moment, and 'Radio Babylon' fed directly into 'Charly'. It ranks at a hundred and fifty-three because it's a dense, difficult listen, but its ideas were genuinely prophetic, and a lot of people built careers on them.
