Chemical Brothers Talk About Turning Down Oasis' 'Wonderwall' Remix

The Chemical Brothers have spoken about their decision to turn down the opportunity of remixing Oasis' hit 'Wonderwall'.

The dance duo, who were offered the chance to re-imagine the song in the early 90s, said they declined because of their lack of experience.

"They did ask us to remix Wonderwall when that first came out but basically we didn't know how to do it,” Tom Rowlands told the BBC.

"Yeah, that would have been good to do, it was a fairly big song,” Ed Simons added.

As previously reported on Gigwise, the duo recently remixed the Oasis song 'Falling Down', which will appear as a b-side to the Manchester band's new single, 'The Shock of the Lightning'.

Speaking about the remix, Rowlands said: "When Noel's name comes through on your phone, the command has been issued. It was exciting to do it and I'm glad they like it.

"We chucked loads of bits out and did it how we would want it to sound."

The single is released onSeptember 28th and will be followed by Oasis' new album 'Dig Out Your Soul', which is released on October 6th.
