The enhanced Japanese edition features an additional track and video footage.

Heavy-hitting DJ Norman Cook (AKA Fatboy Slim) brings the Big Beat back on 2004's PALOOKAVILLE, a record that rivals Cook's previous efforts for imagination, groove, and fun. Cook's particular skill lies in creating a collage of genres from his seemingly never-ending vault of vinyl, bringing them all under one happy, party-time umbrella. The lead-off track, "Don't Let the Man Get You Down," for example, blends gospel vocals, Latin-tinged polyrhythms, and a snippet from Five Man Electrical Band's "Signs," with flashes of robotic IDM sounds, for good measure.

PALOOKAVILLE is a bit more textured and chilled-out than Cook's earlier albums. The acoustic-guitar-based "Put It Back Together," for instance, sounds like the clubby equivalent of a campfire sing-along. "North West Three" is based around the refrain of John Martyn's folky "Primrose Hill," and is true to the feel of the source, despite Cook's additional edits and beats. On the disc's most notable track, "The Joker," Cook re-imagines Steve Miller's hit as a piano-laden funk tune with the one-and-only Bootsy Collins on vocals. This is not to say the record doesn't feature Slim's infectious techno beats, however. The nervous, skittering "Slash Dot Dash" and the distorted, bass-heavy "Long Way from Home" prove PALOOKAVILLE packs a serious punch.

Japanese pressing of the dance act's 2004 album includes two bonus tracks, 'What They're Looking For' & 'Close To Home'. Details TBA. Epic.Spin (p.115) - "'Slash Dot Dash' turns a two-note bass riff and a percolating surf beat into a manic go-go freak-out..." - Grade: B
Uncut (p.99) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[T]here is still something life-affirming about the bounce and brashness of the Fatboy's fourth album..."
Alternative Press (p.156) - 3 out of 5 - "PALOOKAVILLE offers yet more fun funk/blues-rock mashups for unpretentious gatherings of all sorts."

5 stars The Fatboy Does It Again!
I first got into Fatboy Slim when I heard Rockafella Skank aka Funk Soul Brother because the first is too hard to pronounce, on my Now 3 CD. Yes, thats right Now 3. What are they at now? I think it's Now 11. That song just grabbed me and pulled be into a vortex tha got me in to a lot of techno\dance music. I again, listened to more of his songs, and found tem excellent pieces of work. before Half Way Between The Gutter and The Stars came out, I thought he would never be able to top The Rockafella Skank, and to me I think he tied. Which is still good because Rockafella was like an International Smash. Ya Mama, was great on the Charlies Angels II Soundtrack, and I had "Raise the Tempo" stuck in my head for days. Now he has come out with a whole new fatboy. We here less of a computer-generated and more of a human fatboy slim picking up the beats on this CD. And I love it too! It's excellent work, from start to finish. I think his cover of "The Journey" was awesome! Slash Dot Dash provides songs for everyone who miss the trance music of Rockafella Skank. It provides, so listen!
