Music:Response is the sixth Chemical Brothers extended play. The song contains a sample of "Make It Hot" by Nicole Wray featuring Missy Elliott. "The Gentleman Thief Remix" was made by Justin Robertson. This EP was not eligible for the UK Charts because it had five songs instead of three songs, which is required for qualification. The American EP was met with critical response by Robert Christgau, who gave it a score of "neither" ().

In France, the song was released as a double A-side with "Asleep From Day"

The song was used heavily throughout the series 3 episode of V.I.P., A.I. Highrise, with special mention made by Pamela Anderson during the closing credits.

The song "Piku Playground [Live]" was originally released in 1998 on the MTV's Amp 2 compilation.[1] The song "Freak Of The Week" was previously released in June 1998 as "Electronic Battle Weapon 4".[2]
