Published Tuesday, 14th August, 2007 at 2:59 PM
Fatboy Slim is the latest name to compile some of his favourite all-time songs, as part of the ongoing Late Night Tales series.
Slim (real name Norman Cook) follows in the footsteps of the likes of Four Tet, Belle & Sebastian, Air and Nouvelle Vague, when he delivers the 24 track mix on October 15th.
Besides his favourite songs, Fatboy Slim also offers up an exclusive cover version of the Kraftwerk classic Radioactivity.
As well as appearing on the mix, the cover will also surface as a limited edition 7" on October 7th - backed by a spoken word track by Bootsy Collins (he reads a poem written by Cook's former band-mate Paul Heaton).
