Hello Fanboys, we’ve got a pretty neat update today.

Came across this great mix by Liam on Sunset 102 FM Radio from 1991!

I tried to find some more information behind this, however didn’t find anything. If you know anything, please let us know in the comments. However found out that Sunset 102 FM was a Manchester dance station. Seems like it was a station the lasted from 1989 to 1993.. read more about the station here.

The mix by Liam is awesome, enjoy guys!

So proud of the boys to receive this. They truly deserved it, nobody will ever come close to The Prodigy. We all always knew they were the best. Now it’s official by MIXMAG’s poll, voted by the people! Good to see them get the recognition!

The results are in! From September to December last year, you voted in your tens of thousands to decide who was the greatest dance act of all time.

The poll was embraced by fans from Birmingham to Buenos Aires – acts campaigned fiercely, heated debate ensued and all of our expectations were exceeded by your response to the poll.

And now the wait is over. Below is a list of your top twenty greatest dance acts of all time, including the all important winner.

In a closely run battle, we can now reveal that The Prodigy have emerged victorious, pipping robotic legends, Daft Punk, into second place by a very tight margin.

Keith Flint of The Prodigy commented: “To walk off a stage and feel like we smashed it – that’s the reward for us, to see the crowd react and know we’ve done what we’ve come to do. But something like this is truly voted for by the people – and essentially we are nothing without them, so it feels awesome and really respectful.”

All at Mixmag offer congratulations to The Prodigy, an act who have managed to stay as exciting as ever, over two decades on from their first gig.

UPDATE: I can now confirm, that Skrillex is a special guest for Warriors Dance Festival. It was confirmed by The Prodigy via their newsletter.

Now don’t take our word for it. Also this is not confirmed by The Prodigy.

However, over at metalserbia.com. The current lineup for the 3rd Warriors Dance Festival is as follows:

The Prodigy, Skrillex, Jet, rhythm Nereda, Eyesburn, Lollobrigida, Petrol, Dreddup & Hype.

I personally have never heard about the other groups. Also, I think Skrillex is a highly possible act for Warriors Dance Festival.

Hello fello Fanboys, got a great article written up by Chris Swindells from Virtual Festivals website.

Great read about Experience and so on. Thanks to Michael Botzaropoulos for the heads-up via Fanboy Contact.

The rave scene was a rabid epidemic, running unabated and wild in the summer of 1991. This free party outbreak spread with a ferocity of typhoid fever, stretching from satellite sites around the capital, infecting crowds of 50,000 or more in one night.
Back then The Prodigy were a innocent, fresh-faced four-piece, their foray into the crossover ‘rave n rock’ sound – inspired by what key man Liam Howlett saw as the Rage Against The Machine live model – were still not visible on the horizon.

Whether Howlett’s vision or the rave came first, his debut album with The Prodigy would set the fundamental building blocks for the band’s sound: breakbeat hardcore, with slabs of techno, dub-reggae and the then emerging sound of drum and bass, which became the blueprint for more than two decades of musical reverence and electric, ear-splitting live shows.

So, most of you know about ‘The Dirtchamber Sessions Volume One’ mix by Liam right?

Well, that was a result of a 1998 guest DJ appearance by Liam on Mary Anne Hobbs Breezeblock show on Radio 1.

However, the Radio 1 edit & the Dirtchamber edit are different. A few tunes did not make the cut due to permission to use. You can read more about that here.

We’ve got a link where you can listen to the original Radio 1 edit. It also includes a little interview at the beginning.

Enjoy.

Thanks to Twitter user @execaballero for the heads-up.

Liam & Keith did an interview with Zane Lowe from Radio 1, discussing plans for 2012.

Topics covered: Download Festival & new tracks being played. The location & date of Warriors Dance Festival which we reported earlier. New record to be out between Warriors Dance Festival & end of the year. This is a relief, no dubstep! Also, album title and so on.

It’s a great quick interview guys, listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SG9alM9Mng8

Good times!

Information about the 3rd Warriors Dance Festival has been leaked a little early. Just before Liam & Keith sit down with Zane Lowe later today.

According to skiddle.com:

The Prodigy are proud to present the next instalment of their ‘Warrior’s Dance Festival’ at Kalemegdan Fortess in Belgrade on September 15th 2012.

Following the success of the inaugural event at Makuhari Messe, Tokyo in 2009 to the dizzy heights and rave reviews of last year’s second extravaganza at Milton Keynes Bowl, UK, the foundations have firmly been set to take the experience to Eastern Europe and to raise the bar once more for the Serbian people. Warrior’s Dance Festival, Serbia has been curated by The Prodigy and will feature an eclectic and innovative bill based around a music policy favouring heavy beats and guitars. The festival promises to provide a spectrum of entertainment and performances across three stages featuring international guests to be announced.

If you head over to the Warriors Dance Festival website. You will find a graphic showing 3 boxes.

The first box has the Japanese flag, the 2nd has the English flag. The 3rd, is empty!

So this looks like a teaser, that there will be a 3rd Warriors Dance Festival.

Who will be the lucky country? I’m hoping for Australia!
