One of the main reasons why The Prodigy stands out from most other electronic music, is their super edgy sound! This allows them to crossover and reach fans in other genres, which not many other artists can pull off. For example, they could be headlining an electronic festival one weekend, then a rock festival the next weekend. The Prodigy’s edgy sound is actually not due to the synths they’re using (yeah, of course those help), but the main thing behind their sound, is musical dissonance. And this new single “Need Some1” (from upcoming album "No Tourists") is the perfect example, so click play above and let's jump in!
