When mysterious concert footage curiously labelled and set to Chemical Brothers tracks has been popping up online a few months ago rumours were awash what the chems had in store for us next but no one thought of the awesome experience the boys had in store
Filmed with 20 cameras at a headline show at Japan’s very own Glastonbury, the Fujirock Festival, Don't Think is the first time the full Chemical Brothers live experience has been captured on film. Directed by long-term visuals collaborator Adam Smith this full-length concert movie places cameras in the centre of the stage, as well as at the very heart of the crowd to perfectly capture a fan's eye view of the heightened emotional reactions of the audience seeing the band at their very best.
During the film, Smith takes advantage of one of the most unique festival settings in the world when he follows selected audience members away from the stage and out into the natural environment. Then, by adding avant-garde magic realist moments where trippy visuals leave the screens and invade the open spaces of the festival, Don't Think undergoes a transformation from concert film to fully immersive document of one of the most mind-bendingly psychedelic live shows ever seen.
Don’t Think is the first concert film to feature glorious Dolby 7:1, surround sound, mixed for the big screen by the band themselves.
One half of Chemical Brothers' Ed Simon says, "this film is the closest I will ever get to being at a Chemical Brothers show; and yeah, it's a beautiful experience."
'Don't Think' is showing at selected cinemas around Australia for 1 night only, Friday 3rd Feb, check your local listings
