The Chemical Brothers rave up T In The Park
Dance duo play a euphoric set on the NME/Radio 1 Stage
The Chemical Brothers closed the first day of the T In The Park festival tonight (July 11), creating a rave at the NME/Radio 1 Stage.
In front of a backdrop featuring psychedelic graphics, Ed Simons and Tom Rowlands frequently came out from behind their decks during the set to get the crowd going.
'Galvanize' and 'Music:Response' were early highlights of the set.
The pace never relented as 'Surface To Air' and a particularly frenetic 'Believe', featuring recorded vocals from Bloc Party's Kele Okereke, created a euphoric atmosphere.
After briefly leaving the stage, the duo returned for a version of their 1997 UK Number One single 'Block Rockin' Beats' to cap off the set and close the first day of the bash.
Keep up with all the action from T In The Park and Oxegen Festival this weekend (July 11-13) as it happens on NME.COM.
