Signed by Virgin Records, they started working over their debut album Exit Planet Dust It was released in 1996 to admiration of most critics. In 1995, Rowlands and Simons were forced to change the name of their duo to The Chemical Brothers threatened with a copyright claim from an American company called Dust Brothers. As they had released the third single My Mercury Mouth, they were gained permissions to remix songs from Primal Scream, Sabres Of Paradise, The Prodigy, and The Charlatans. By that time, they made themselves a name as both DJs and stylish remix makers. In a short while, they released their second single 14th Century Sky. Having acquired university diplomas, the lads moved to London to continue DJ performing at one of the city's clubs. DJs from the best clubs of the city found it a real hit, and shortly after the record, the track was officially released on Own Records label. Later, they decided to re-equip their bedrooms into recording studios, and it was there where Brothers made their first studio track Dust Brothers Song to the Siren. These two called their duo Dust Brothers, just for fun. At that time, they did not take that seriously, and yet soon their sets became very popular among the club's residents. In 1991, these young men started working as DJs in Manchester club Naked Under Leather. However, it was not science they came there for, but music. They met at the history courses in Manchester. The Chemical Brothers is a British electronic music duo, formed by Edmund John Simons and Thomas Owen Rowlands.
