The Chocolate Wheelchair Album is a 2003 album by breakcore artist Venetian Snares, released on Planet Mu. Originally titled Stupid Chocolate Wheelchair, label owner Mike Paradinas decided the title would be pointlessly provocative, so he removed the word "Stupid".[4] The title of the album is actually not written anywhere on the album artwork.
The album features a variety of samples:
- "Abomination Street" samples the theme of British soap opera Coronation Street and "Oh Bondage Up Yours!" by X-Ray Spex.
- "Too Young" features Mötley Crüe's "Too Young to Fall in Love"
- I'm A Slave 4 U by Britney Spears is featured prominently on the song "Langside"
- The vocal sample used in "Einstein-Rosen Bridge" is the theme song from short-lived American sci-fi comedy It's About Time
- "Hand Throw" features portions of the Burro Banton a cappella "Boom Wha Dis"
- "Epidermis" features Siouxsie and the Banshees' "Skin" as well as sampling "Triangular Hydrogen Strain" by Drexciya and a distorted sample of "Animal Rap" by Jedi Mind Tricks
- "Ghetto Body Buddy" uses portions of the theme tune to "Sesame Street", and Pablo Moses' "Ready, Aim, Fire"
- "Sky Painted on Car" features of a filted sample of "Guess Who's Coming To Dinner" by Black Uhuru
