Music For The Jilted Generation with its claustrophobic slap and morphic sting soared into the number one slot on the British album charts, spurred a Mercury Award nomination and went on to sell over 1 million copies globally. It was fractious, bombastic and blatant. Dark break beats clashed with maniacal acrylic guitars and gave Howlett kudos that he never managed to live down. Rasmus 'Tonto's Release'.

I don’t think we’ve ever been accused of that. I think we’ve always had our own style, and the thing I’m most proud of with this band is kind of, there seems to be this kind of path that most bands seem to follow. It’s a sort of road through doing certain interviews, going on TV, and it’s a sort of road to stardom, or whatever stardom is, and we haven’t followed any of those. We’ve done our own thing and chose our own path, and that’s something we’re most proud of …”If you were to drive this point home in Howlett’s presence he’d cringe. He isn’t known for accepting compliments lightly. Forever lurking in the shadows, tweaking knobs and quietly moulding events as they unfold. This is always the mark of the true genius. Machismo, pouting and controversy does not maketh the rebel. Delivering the goods is what counts. Meat Beat Manifesto 'Radio Babylon'. Published by Strictly Confidential. (P) 1990 Play It Again Sam.

Truth be told, I didn't expect it to be this great. And I'm an absolute megafan, probably in the top Prodigy fans alive. Darth Fader and Scarecrow Willy, " Toasted Marshmallow Feet Braxe" (1995) (Drum Loop) (uncredited) (1995) There's not much respite from the high-octane tempo, which some more varied dynamics might have remedied. The mix also gets tedious in the middle, with the KLF, Frankie Bones and Meat Beat Manifesto sequence overplayed, and the Beastie Boys sounding like chipmunks as they try to keep up with some blistering Propellerheads big beat.Renegade Soundwave 'Ozone Breakdown'.

Hooked up my old CD player and it still plays. Happy to see it on Soundcloud so I can stream it. Legendary. 2022-08-02T20:44:01Z Comment by Jin Seok Kim

More than a history course, this mix contributed to expand the musical culture of lots of people at the time, suggesting that beyond the basics of all genres (tempo, pace, melody, instrument, sampling...), one could make the connection between all these parameters. Liam Paris Howlett proffers the poison and remedy to the psycho-somatic addict in us all. The Dirtchamber Sessions Volume One is just that, a old skool break beat in the path. An aural sniff of narcotic bliss. The tags, the kudos and the legacy matter not. Pandemonium is only ever a step away …London Funk Allstars 'Sure Shot'. Published by Just Isn't Music.
