The album from which it was taken, "Surrender", was a towering wigged out gang show of a record, featuring the ultimate guest list of performers – previous graduates Noel Gallagher & Jonathan Donahue alongside a handful of first timers - Mazzy Star’s Hope Sandoval, Manc legend Bernard Sumner & Primal Scream’s Bobby Gillespie. The result was a consistently brilliant mixture of machine driven funk, other worldly laments and pulsing electro, each contributor bringing their own unique style, only to be blended into a seamless, timeless, beautiful psychedelic masterpiece.

"Surrender" saw The Chemicals head off on another huge worldwide tour, this time starting in South America, onto playing a series of British club gigs, peaking with a joint headline gig at the legendary Red Rocks stadium in Colorado with long time admirer Fatboy Slim, both acts playing to a sold out crowd of 10,000 US kids a couple of thousand feet above sea level. After the single releases of the Gallagher fronted "Let Forever Be" & the Sumner/Gillespie track "Out Of Control", 1999 ended with the release of Tom & Ed’s remix of Primal Scream’s "Swastika Eyes", taking the original, early New Order style disco punk record and twisting it into a throbbing Moroder-style trance number, perfect for their Millennium Eve gig at the 20,000 capacity Gatecrasher gig in Sheffield.

The Chemical Brothers all but disappeared from view after headlining the main stage at Glastonbury, drawing one of the biggest crowds ever seen at the festival in its 30 plus years. Apart from a couple of low key DJ gigs out of London, their most visible moments were spent in the company of a couple of hundred likeminded souls at their near legendary Glint nights. Named in tribute to the "Surrender" track "Got Glint" and eluding to the state of mind of most of the punters present, the nights were held sporadically at a tiny underground bar in West London, the kind of venue that would lend the nights the feel of an acid house speakeasy. As word spread, the nights were put on hold, the venue’s capacity unable to cope with the demand.

2001 passed without much noise from The Chemical Brothers. After 18 months spent locked in a south London studio, emerging occasionally to test out new tracks on unsuspecting club audiences both here and abroad, Tom & Ed offered up a low-key single, "It Began In Afrika".
