The London Paper – Fatboy Slim

Oxfam, Dalston: Thursday night
With a banana in his mouth and vinyl in his hand, superstar DJ Fatboy Slim last night climaxed the Oxjam Festival by bringing his Ibiza party to Dalston. The weather might be better on the disco island but Norman Cook easily adapted to the east London venue – the damp, dark and sweaty basement suited his bass heavy tunes perfect.
Barefoot and in his traditional Hawaiian shirt and camouflage shorts, the constantly smiling Cook basked in the strong neon lights and the crowd’s devotion, rather than the sun.
