Liam Howlett from the Prodigy interview at Central Station Records, Sydney in 1994 with Glen TV. Coolest guy possible. #LiamHowlett, #Prodigy, #GlenMacKay, #GlenTV
Mixmag really did unfairly target The Prodigy in mid '92, I've read the article where they wrote that 'Charlie killed rave', it's pretty ridiculous, by Dom Phillips, who was a good journalist and was tragically murdered in Brazil, I'm not criticising him as a person, rest in peace to him, but it was unfair to write that - he was talking about the commercialisation of the hardcore/ breakbeat rave scene - but there were far more cheesy commercial artists to single out than The Prodigy. That's why in the video for Fire, the band throw copies of Mixmag onto a bonfire. That's the kind of thing Liam is referring to here with the British press.
CJ Bolland is a legend, he's made so many different types of Techno under different aliases since the late 80's. Horsepower/ Rave signal is a particularly big tune from '91, included by Underworld on Their Back To Mine comp, as well as being a massive rave track back in the day.
