Prodigy Essential Interview part 1

[@lisathephoenix1151]

This HAS really upset me on every level. My sincerest and resounding genuine to Keith's family, friends and all who loved the prodigy. I have never met the legend but I have been a fan since the underground days in the late 1980's early 90's. Their music always had an instant positive effect on me, it made me extremely happy, positively motivated, fully of energy and sense of purpose. This is a great loss to the music industry and yet another one of my favourite positive happy teenage years icons is has died. The first being my all time favorite comedic genius MR RIK MAYALL.

@lars' 1996 toothpick "Hell", "infinite torture, for finite crimes, including thought crimes" CH 😕

[@mikeortolani196]

@lars' 1996 toothpick Hell, Heaven whatever nobody knows where he's at hopefully a better place. Chumps? man get a grip on yourself what's important is that he blessed our ears with fabulous music and he'll be dearly missed by many. They inspired a lot of various artists out there and deserve respect so don't say bullshit like he's in hell coz it's fucking ignorant

[@oscarcat1231]

lars' 1996 toothpick No one likes the doctrine of hell, not even Christians. Let me tell you as a Christian I do not like the doctrine but I believe it. I am very upset about Keith or anyone who ends their life. I’m 47 so nearly his age and I did listen and was aware of their music. Jesus is the Only one who can save, rescue you from despair.

[@wozwoz-w3w]

Adam turner He will be starting fires in heaven

[@theknowerandtheknown]

saw them last november 27th in Berlin. The place was on fire and i looked Keith in the eye down the front! I can't say enough how much an influence this man was on British music culture. A legend that unfortunately will never fully realise

[@MrJudderfiend]

Charly was the tune that came along and smashed it. I had heard nothing like it before especially the break. Since then and before it, Liam has always produced belters!

[@SerumMr85]

I was growing up playing a violin and listening to The Prodigy, what a good memories 🔥

[@tees926]

The Prodigy were the very first mainstream electronic band (sure we had Kraftwerk, etc) but The Prodigy started underground (and then mainstream) electronic music. I will never forget the first time I heard The Prodigy Experience in 95...I kept listening to it over and over again on my sony walkman cassette tape as I walked around my college campus all night and all day long. It was like the ultimate drug. I didnt sleep:..All I did was listen to Charly and Outer Space and all the tunes and try to figure them out and how amazing those tracks were (and still are)... RIP Keith :((((

[@Bojan-tg2vk]

Same Here! Now will probably everyone not agree with me, but only because it's not the right time..., but one Important thing I will say because it's a fact and true. The best Album by the quality of the sound production and numbers of saled copies is The Fat of the Land. But with this Album Prodigy, the "true" sound of Prodigy, that only hardcore fans who followed them from the very beginning can immediately recognize(like in a movie, and you're sure it's a song from Prodigy), unfortunately, was over. I remember it well, Leeroy left the band (he made great music and is doing ), suddenly a long time was nothing new from Prodigy....and as my brother and I heard the songs from the new Album, Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned and Invaders Must Die-omg I couldn't believe that's Prodigy! (only Liam knew what and why) , the whole media, even some friends that always listened to prodigy, after The Fat of the Land stopped to buy new Albums and listen to Prodigy....a lot of PR magazines and People reacted very bad too.

[@martinburbridge7545]

for some strange reason my speakers in car are working better no more amp clipping keith must of fixed it as i havnt looked into in

[@Corvid]

I'd been up for 2 days partying, and was tripping out heavy on Nitrous after, I tripped so damn hard listening to We Live Forever that I had a mad lucid dream sequence where I met Keef, it was fucking lifechanging. Then my bandmate called me up, and it instantly became one of the most insane weird "this can't be happening" moments in my life. Couldn't believe it... I remember what Keef was telling me too, it was beyond real. Either I met Keef's soul, or I have a fucking incredible imagination.

[@davidkennedy6208]

RIP Keith, huge love and respect from The Barn regulars!!!

[@robertcollins5307]

R.I.P Kieth you were a legend to me and many, big part my life and the prodigy musi defntly the soundtrack to my teenage years ! Everybody in the place and out of space always be in my personel top ten tunes of all time !

[@stevenleejohnson1855]

Just shows you that you can have ££millions, fame, millions of fans, friends and family who love you to bits, but depression can hit anyone. I wish he spoke to someone or got help but when your minds made up there's notjing you can say or do. Its invisible, he was probably laughing and his normal self the day before probably knowing he was gonna do it, proper gutted for keef and his family and friends, listened to the Prodigy since late 80s and still do. So most of my life. Prodigy will live on and no doubt go to No1 in there next album. But keef will be sorely missed, rave in peace keef. A proper legend in the dance world

[@betterthantelly2993]

That's the thing with genuine artists they can keep creating whereas copyists and plagiarists are stumped when there is no one to copy. As the great Kieth sais in this and the greatest truth- be yourself be true to yourself.

I followed prodigy from their beginnings, and as Liam said here in what I agree, the Stupid Media stated to call them electronic punk which totally false, It's breakbeat (but some electronic music terms were not even known at that time).I even learned to dance like Leeroy, man that was such a cool dance, but a hard one to learn, but whit that dances even many years later I always got a chick on the dancefloor, even in rave clubs...guys, it was so crazy n everybody was on a "happy face". Then came the big Rave wave, but as I see many of you were like me teenagers then and I was so happy. But as I said, I was 16 or less as a Raver but I never kinda knew what was the reason that the Rave scene and culture suddenly shut down. Like a switch-off!?!

Yeah he's kinda an arrogant asshole, but still, Liams the heart of the band man, he's the essential part. He makes the music. From what I've seen, I'd agree with you that it seems Keith is a much chiller guy, while Liam has some sort of arrogant/huge ego vibe of some sort over him.
