We Love…are elated to announce the return to Space of one of the electronic music scenes defining acts. After a 14 year exile from Ibiza The Chemical Brothers will return to celebrate Space’s 19th birthday, 10th August 2008.
"WE STILL BELIEVE. 14 YEARS AFTER OUR LAST ILL FATED ATTEMPT TO PLAY RECORDS AT SPACE, WE'RE ECSTATIC TO BE ASKED BACK....ROCK THE HOUSE!" The Chemical Brothers
In this special year of retrospective, no act is more suiting to remind us of where we came from and more importantly where we are heading to. Since their auspicious meeting at Manchester University in 1992 the duo have gone on to write their selves firmly in the history of dance music.
Their last outing at Space in 1994 is part of clubbing folklore, when We Love’s Darren Hughes had booked them to play for Cream, but we shan't delve too deeply into that one now as a year later The Chems released one of the largest selling dance albums to date.
Exit Planet Dust, a reference to their re-naming from The Dust Bros to The Chemical Brothers paved the way for the Big Beat movement of the late 90’s and is still name-checked as a milestone in our history together. What has followed over the last 10 years is a story of legends. Stadium fillers, Festival headliners and sales of their following 5 albums in the millions including the timeless tracks; Leave Home, Life is Sweet, The Private Psychedelic Reel, Out Of Control, Star Guitar, Believe and last year’s; The Salmon Dance, there are not enough superlatives to associate what We owe to The Brothers Chemical.
Darren Hughes on the return of The Chemical Brothers...
“At f***in' last, this really must be our year. After a 14 year hiatus between the boys playing for me in Ibiza, on the Terrace at Space (yes, when Pepe kicked them off the decks), Pepe & everybody, get ready for the gig of the decade. Don’t just trust my word, just come and see and listen for yourselves. We Love…The Chemical Brothers”.
