The Prodigy Present: The Dirtchamber Sessions Volume One

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 userĀ @execaballero for the heads-up.

BBC Radio 1 Session with The Prodigy 2002

Babys Got A Temper

Babys Got A Temper

Hello everyone, our News Reporter Andrea Prodigy Alfa has come across a nice find.

The boys were on BBC’s Radio 1 station to promote their latest release at the time, Babys Got A Temper.

The boys talk about the record, the video clip, recording process n’ so on. It’s interesting that Liam says there’s going to be another single release before the end of the year (2002) and an album early next year (2003).

As we all know, that didn’t happen. Both Girls and AONO came out in August 2004.

Anyhow, enjoy the audio guys!

BBC Reviews Worlds On Fire

Worlds On Fire

Worlds On Fire

The BBC have reviewed The Prodigy’s Milton Keynes Worlds On Fire gig.

It’s a great and positive review which is great. They also note that no tracks from Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned were played which the reviewer Mike Diver puts a positive on it. I personally was disapointed, atleast Spitfire and if they could have fit it in, Girls. Those tracks are mega.

Mike is spot on when he says “the listener/viewer will feel exhausted and, just maybe, a bit emotional”. That’s exactly how I felt after viewing the film in cinemas. It’s like ‘a love letter to the fans’.

Anyhow, enjoy the read guys.
