== Background ==
Cook bought obscure vinyl records and sampled elements that he liked. Throughout the 1990s he built up a library of these samples on floppy discs to create collages.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=Doyle |first=Tom |date=January 2017 |title=Classic Tracks: Fatboy Slim 'Praise You' |url=https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/classic-tracks-fatboy-slim-praise-you |access-date=2024-08-08 |website=www.soundonsound.com}}</ref> He loaded these into an [[Akai S900]] sampler connected via [[MIDI]] to an [[Atari ST]] computer with [[C-lab.|C-Lab]] Creator software to record and manipulate the samples. For most of the songs he added the bassline and sampled the other elements in a [[Big beat|Big Beat]] style.<ref name=":1" /> In early 1998 Cook had success with several remixes while trying out some of the obscure records during his DJ sets.<ref name=":1" /> Through the use of a time-stretch method and collaborating with his mixer/engineer Simon Thornton, Cook compiled the songs at his home studio in [[Brighton]], known as the House of Love.<ref name=":0">{{Cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2004/sep/10/popandrock4|title=How the Fatboy grew up |last=Petridis|first=Alexis|date=2004-09-10|newspaper=The Guardian|issn=0261-3077|access-date=2016-03-12}}</ref><ref name=":1" /><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Marcus |first=Tony |date=April 1998 |title=Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncy |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Jq-A2xEoAHIC&q=fatboy+slim+house+of+love+brighton&pg=PA86 |journal=SPIN |volume=14 |issue=4 |pages=82–91}}</ref>
