Paused in Cosmic Reflection is a kaleidoscopic history of the band and the intoxicating world they have created, in their own words, with contributions from intimate friends and collaborators to Steve Dub, Adam Smith (the architect of their hallucinogenic live shows alongside Marcus Lyall), Kate Gibb as well as many other voices.
Authors Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons said: “Robin has been part of our extended family since 1994. When he came to us with the idea of Paused in Cosmic Reflection – a book that would join the dots between us and many of the people we’ve worked with over the years as well as tell the stories of clubs we’ve played, gigs, videos and live visuals – it made total sense. Through his relationship with designer Paul Kelly and with publishers White Rabbit, we’ve collectively made a book that brings you right inside the world of the Chemical Brothers – our world – for the first time ever.”
