The Chemical Brothers were one of the first electronic producers/bands I ever got into, and while most of their stuff is quite heavy, Star Guitar is not. This is a song that you may not like first time you hear it, I didn't, but it definitely grows on you. It starts off with some simple clapping samples, and over the first minute and a half slowly builds up until the vocals kick in. This is the sort of song that is perfect for travelling, when you're stuck resting against a window, watching the world go by. The chemical brothers obviously knew this, and have made one of the best/cleverest videos I've ever seen. Here is is:
Favourite Chem Bros track, and one of my favourite music videos.
