UUSI Chemical Brothers Push The Button CD (2004) - Ilmainen Toimitus

When the big beat boom gradually subsi-

ded the Chemical Brothers initially sought

refuge within a carefully crafted version

of house music both epic and psychede-

lic. Still, the duo are fusion fans at heart,

and their fifth studio album, Push the But-

ton, finds them easing back to their true

love - pulverizing stylistic boundaries whi-

le they seek out clever hooks to hang

their production caps on. The first half of

the record is heavy on collaboration, be-

ginning with the clear highlight, "Galvani-

ze," which features guest Q-Tip riding a

delicious mid-tempo groove and the brot-

hers teasing out an ingenious Middle

Eastern string sample over the course of

several breakdowns and over six minutes.

"The Boxer" has ChemBros veteran Tim

Burgess of the Charlatans UK coming on

like an extroverted Steve Miller, while the

next track, "Believe," features Britpop

newcomer Kele Okereke (of Bloc Party)

agonizing over an energized electroshock

production composed of equal parts Prin-

ce and Chicago acid house. It's clear the

Chemical Brothers are still searching rest-

lessly for new sounds and new fusions;

only they could alternate a polemical hip-

hop track - "Left Right," a guest spot for

Anwar Superstar, who, incidentally, may

be the younger brother of Mos Def, but

sounds like he's been living in Jay-Z's

head for a few years - with a feature for

an indie band, the Magic Numbers ("Clo-

se Your Eyes"). Obviously, it's far more

refreshing to explore new territory rather

than merely go back over old ground; wh-

ile "Come Inside" suffers by aping their

1997 approach, the subsequent track,

"The Big Jump," finds the pair energized

with a fresh gloss on their patented sound

(although it is easy to notice how the

skronky guitars in the background are

clearly a post-electroclash development).

While there aren't as many heart-stopping

productions as on 2002's unjustly neglec-

ted Come With Us, Push the Button pro-

ves the Chemical Brothers have retained

the innate curiosity necessary to keep

them blazing trails for years to come.
