The Chemical Brothers
Biography
The Chemical Brothers is a British electronic music duo, formed by Edmund John Simons and Thomas Owen Rowlands. They met at the history courses in Manchester. However, it was not science they came there for, but music. In 1991, these young men started working as DJs in Manchester club Naked Under Leather. At that time, they did not take that seriously, and yet soon their sets became very popular among the club's residents. These two called their duo Dust Brothers, just for fun. Later, they decided to re-equip their bedrooms into recording studios, and it was there where Brothers made their first studio track Dust Brothers Song to the Siren. DJs from the best clubs of the city found it a real hit, and shortly after the record, the track was officially released on Own Records label. Having acquired university diplomas, the lads moved to London to continue DJ performing at one of the city's clubs. In a short while, they released their second single 14th Century Sky. By that time, they made themselves a name as both DJs and stylish remix makers. As they had released the third single My Mercury Mouth, they were gained permissions to remix songs from Primal Scream, Sabres Of Paradise, The Prodigy, and The Charlatans.
