RIP Keith . Such a gentle soul . He was the living proof that you can’t judge a book by its cover . What a dude .

@Cleve_Crudgington 2 года назад

James Blunt posted a really nice anecdote after Keith died. "At the Q Awards years ago, when Noel Gallagher was saying he was leaving Ibiza because I’d moved there, and Damon Albarn refused to be in the same picture as me, and Paul Weller was saying he’d rather eat his own shit than work with me, Keith Flint came over, gave me a hug, and said how thrilled he was for my success. Keith, I only met you once, but I shed a tear at the news of your death. In our business, there are no prizes for being kind, but if there was, that Grammy would be yours."

@monikabeki6838 2 года назад

It was considered almost sacrilegious or heretical to even tolerate techno let alone seriously listen to it...until The Prodigy came along. Thats how much of an impact they had that they actually broke down longstanding musical barriers & pryed open many a closed mind with their unique darkness.

I was hugely into metal back as the rave scene exploded and no metaller was into the Prodigy back then, except for me. It was only after Jilted when they used Pop will Eat Itself guitarist on "Their Law". Even then largely ignored until Fat of the Land dropped. Then they went total mainstream.

@Nightdominia 2 года назад

Firestarter started and I remembered the lyrics to Breathe.😁

@prodigy84bg 2 года назад

Not really a techno band, but rather an electronic band, as techno is just a sub-genre of electronic music. Their first official biography is titled "Electronic Punks", which I think describes their style pretty well. Also, they only had a live guitarist who occasionally might have played bass guitar for some tracks, which originally don't have guitar riffs, rather than a dedicated bassist. When they first added a guitarist to the live line up, he would come out on stage only for the tracks that had guitar riffs, which were only a couple at that point, but in later years he would remain on stage for pretty much the whole show, even if less than half of the tracks had guitar riffs.

Paid up rock / metal fan here. The Prodigy were one of the finest bands I ever saw live, they were a force of nature. Through my work at a hotel I looked after them after an appearance at a festival, a nicer, more amicable group you couldn’t wish to meet. We had a wedding in the hotel at the same time as they were staying and at about one in the morning I’m stood in the hotel bar looking across a gathering of wedding guests who are rubbing shoulders with The Prodigy who are happily chatting away about missing their families ‘cause they were on tour and all are showing each other photos of their children on the phones, weirdly enough The Streets were with us the same night, sadly he’s a jumped up prick who refused to talk to anyone and he brought an entourage to fill a tour bus, The Prodigy? A people carrier and a quiet assurance that they didn’t need an entourage. Top band, top blokes and a blast live. RIP Keith.

@robdaniel3211 2 года назад

The music is Liam Howlett. They started with dancers but two of this three dancers became hype men: MC Maxim Reality and Keith Flint (rip). Leroy was the other dancer. As others have said, they’d tour also with a guitarist and drummer. Their electro sound crossed over to punk/metal and brought listeners in from these genres.

@PeteBaldwin 2 года назад

Saw a video that explained this song a bit more. Keith had never sung on a Prodigy song before and after Liam wrote it as an instrumental, he decided it needed some lyrics. Whilst looking for some samples, Keith said "let me sing on it." This what he came up with... Apparently the lyrics are basically about himself in the band. His job was to get the crowd fired up - the firestarter....

@robdaniel3211 2 года назад

Maybe as a total “frontman” but Keith did tons of stuff cobalt before that, like “Poison”

Early 92, the British rave scene was at its peak, The Prodigy were touring the clubs to promote their music... sweaty basement clubs, drips falling from the ceiling it was so hot. They performed on the tiny stage at Rockworld in Manchester and I actually jumped on the stage and danced with Keith (he was just the dancer then)... most amazing moment, even then I knew it was special. The rave scene back then didn't have all those labels, techno, drum and base, it was all just one music under the rave umbrella. If it made you dance like a lunatic at 120BPM, it got played!

Interesting story with Prodigy and Tool: Back in 1995, before Justin Chancellor had auditioned for Tool, The Prodigy had asked him to play guitar for them at their live shows while he was still living in London.... he ultimately turned it down. Years later in 1997, Tool headlined the Lollapalooza tour with The Prodigy in the lineup... they were huge Tool fans and would watch Tool play from the side of the stage every night on tour. I believe back in the 90s there wasnt the specific sub-genre descriptions we have today... I always knew them as being 'Electronica' along with artists like Daft Punk, Moby, The Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, The Crystal Method, to name a few.

The Prodigy was one of my favorite groups growing up. Every album had a different, unique sound to it so everything they released sounded new, but they all sounded like "The Prodigy."

Later in life Keith bought, ran and lived in a pub in Braintree where he grew up. In winter it had a log fire to help keep it warm. Whenever he lit it he would turn and look at the patrons and say “Don’t fucking say it!” He was a lovely bloke by all accounts. There are plans for a statue to him in his home town RIP.

It warms my heart you found one of my old favourites with the prodigy, being English I'm proud to have bands like this, saw them live back in the 90's and nowadays I'm a metalhead but man the prodigy were fking dope, sadly the singer Keith Flint died a few years back. To many great front men and musician take their lives these days, its heartbreaking...

I remember watching this video and the one for "Breath" and "Smack My Bitch Up" on MTV when I was like 10 years old. They were my introduction to electronic music. RIP Keith Flint

@SpawnSixThirteen 2 года назад

2 songs from The Prodigy that you need to hear are "Poison" (my favorite prodigy track) and "Diesel Power" (pretty decent rap track)

@jochencooper2751 2 года назад

Poison is a fucking banger

Prodigy was played along side all genres of metal when i was clubbing in Manchester (UK) back in late 90s early 2000s always got everyone up dancing, saw them live once as well, wish it was more.

@vondefeo8586 2 года назад

Keith is an absolute legend 😎 journos used to say Keith was "only the dancer" for The Prodigy, so Keith showed them what his role was, to create the energy at the gig...to start the fire 🔥

I was in Middle school when this epic album came out!! Smack my Bitch up is my fav, Unfortunately Keith, the man in this video passed away not too long ago

You should definitely give The Prodigy „Smack my bitch up“ a go. The official video is bonkers RIP KeithFlint

prodigy is it's own genre. they're a mix of D&B, breakbeat, techno, metal.

Saw the Prodigy for the 3rd time in November 2019 just before Keith died. The rest of the band are touring the UK in July in his honour, you know I got my ticket

@janmalandra1899 2 года назад

The Prodigy were the first EDM band to develop a serious following of metal fans because of their hardcore sound and high energy presentation and insane volume and their image.

@alexdelarge5373 2 года назад

How the fuck can you not have heard this track before?!? Prodigy are one of the most famous acts on earth. Even if you don't know the band there's tribes of Pygmies in the Amazon rain forests who have heard of Firestarter ffs

@theasianjaywalker4455 2 года назад

@@Lookatmeshine I noticed one of them immediately recognizes the song. I don't know that the premise is "we've never heard of this before", rather, They've never sat down and watched this video and maybe they've heard the song playing elsewhere but they didn't know the name of the song or ever focused on hearing it out. My comparison: I've never watched a full episode of 'Friends'. I KNOW what 'Friends' is and I immediately recognize the faces of any 'Friends' characters and further more, I feel like I have seen it playing 1000 times in my life. I wasn't focused on watching it but it was on someone's TV or an airport TV etc. But I've never actually sat down and properly, focused, watched, took in, an episode of 'Friends'. "Who the hell never heard of the show Friends WTF!?" isnt' the appropriate answer. Anyway, you're a good dude and its all good.

@abaddon1371 2 года назад

The Prodigy's music consisted of several genres, where the most notably was rave, industrial and EBM and all of it with some punk tones in it. A lot of the industrial / AggroTech bands that appeared during that time-period, had their roots in EBM, which a lot of people confuse with various other forms of electronic music (Like Techno) Keith was a great man and despite his appearence, of gentle nature (R.I.P.) and this particular song is actually about himself, and his "fiery personality" on stage, plus a shout out to the fans "who likes to raise hell" (have good fun and don't give a damn!). Firestarter is a play on his last name being Flint, which can be used to start fires. The song was meant as an instrumental piece, but Keith wanted to try putting lyrics in it, and well, you just listened to the result of that :) As an extra trivia. For a long time, a lot of people was convinced that Keith sang about USA as the Firestarter, because of that shirt he is wearing.

@optimusprowse6448 2 года назад

When "Firestarter" came out, I wasn't a fan. But as a Teenager, I worked on several concerts and Festivals in Germany. And Festival happened to have The Prodigy as Main Act. And Boy oh Boy, since that day I'm a fan. RIP to Keith!!! And please react to "Breathe" and "Smack my bitch up". I think MTV wasn't allowed to show the MV for "Smack my bitch up" before 10 p.m. (here in Germany). It's a wild trip.

You guys should definitely check out some of their Live at Rock am Ring songs. Get the feel for how they are live. Probably go for Diesel Power or Smack my Bitch Up

@PauloRenato23 2 года назад

I had the good fortune of seeing them live a couple of times and OMG they were simply fantastic, man it was pure energy!! Check out (in no particular order) Smack My Bitch Up (try to find a non edited version of the video it was heavily censored and it was just amazing!! Just google it and it's pretty easy to find but you'll have to blur many parts of the video here on youtube because they won't allow it here!! :p) Breathe No Good Voodoo People Mindfields (part of the Matrix soundtrack) (Watch the Live in Russia video to get a glimpse of the live energy) Poison Their Law Diesel Power (this one is more rap than the others) Funky Shit (the way this song starts is fantastic and then it's pretty trippy!!!) Narayan (probably too long for you guys, 9 minutes but it's great) And that's enough! :)

The Prodigy are amazing, I've seen them live a couple of times and the rush, stage presence and wall of sound was amazing. If you do Smack my Bitch up you need to find the official video. It's brilliant

I first heard firesarter on the John Peel show one evening when I was in my car. Had to pull over and turned it right up. Unfortunately I didn't hear the bands name so spent the following week asking everyone if they knew who had released it. Loved them ever since. Rip Kieth.

What I would give to be able to see the video (and as it was back then hear the song) for the first time! This took me straight back to my teen years (I was 14-15 when this came out).
