Freak Power was a band founded by Norman Cook (later to become known as Fatboy Slim), Ashley Slater (the trombonist with the anarchic British jazz big band Loose Tubes), and Jesse Graham aka the Bass Cadet. Their music was a mix of acid jazz with funk and soul, as well as trip-hop.

The Fried Funk Food E.P. is classic electronic meets dub in a way that has held it's timeless charm since 1994. Over the years I have come back to this simple 6 track EP and enjoyed it over and over again. Also worth noting is the album is produced by Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim, Feelgood Factor, The Mighty Dub Katz, Pizzaman, Sunny Side Up, Yum Yum Head Food) before he rose to stardom. Highly recommended.
