In time the work of Eden Burns will prove to be incredibly influential on the house scene worldwide, and yet another banging release goes to show just that. Big beat achieved mainstream success during the 1990s, and achieved its critical and commercial peak between 1995 and 1999, with releases such the Chemical Brothers’ Dig Your Own Hole, The Prodigy’s The Fat of the Land, and Fatboy Slim’s You've Come a Long Way, Baby, before quickly declining from 2000 onwards. They are often punctuated with punk-style vocals or rappers and driven by intense, distorted synthesizer basslines with conventional pop, house and techno song structures.The Fat of the Land by the Prodigy sold 2,600,000 copies in the United States [22] and was certified 2× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Big beat is an electronic music genre that usually uses heavy breakbeats and synthesizer-generated loops and patterns – common to acid house/ techno. I always thought the formula of big beat was the breakbeats of hip-hop, the energy of acid house, and the pop sensibilities of the Beatles, with a little bit of punk sensibility, all rolled into one. Fatboy Slim's song " Praise You" peaked at number 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 on May 22, 1999, and his song " The Rockafeller Skank" peaked at number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 15, 2000. Following this release, Big Beat Manifesto is becoming more and more like an actual manifesto for deep house in all its shapes and sizes.

In 1989, Iain Williams from the English electronic duo Big Bang coined the musical term "big beat" to describe the band's musical style. House Non Stop' picks up with some prickly acid squelch and bouncing house drums while 'Multitool' closes out with a flailing percussive workout and tribal energy. Molten acid defines the deep atmospheres of 'Free Your Mind' and then more textural synths and raw, live-sounding drums provide the foundation for 'Around N Around. The genre's most successful acts would further change their sound; more prominently, the Chemical Brothers releasing more material with direct house and techno characteristics (including " 4x4" beats which resemble those of house and synthesizer sweeps and noises, marking a departure from their big beat sound consisting of syncopated breakbeats and hip hop samples) inspired by the success of the Gatecrasher club and the trance movement, which would reach a commercial peak between 1999 and 2002.

The concept of the big beat sound was later picked up on and adapted by many club DJs and went on to become widely used by many successful musicians throughout the 1990s. People like the Prodigy and the Chemical Brothers – we saw it as very similar to the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, who grew up listening to soul records and blues records and then sold an English version of it back to America. Williams explained the concept during an interview with the journalist Alex Gerry in an article published in the London magazine Metropolitan (issue 132, page 9, 6 June 1989) under the heading, Big Bang in Clubland – Could Big Beat be the 1989 answer to Acid House? For fans of The Prodigy, Pendulum and Hideki Naganuma, using samples from TV, film and video games, The Big Beat Manifesto comes crashing into a sound system near you the moment you hit play.
