(The) Prodigy

The Prodigy are an English electronic music group (Big beat/Breakbeat/Rave/Synthpunk/Hardcore techno) formed by Liam Howlett in 1990 in Braintree, Essex. Along with Fatboy Slim, The Chemical Brothers and The Crystal Method, as well as other acts they are pioneers of the big beat electronic dance genre which achieved mainstream popularity in the 1990s and 2000s, and are known for high-quality live performances. They have sold over 20 million records worldwide which is unequalled in dance music history.

The group makes use of various styles ranging from rave, hardcore, industrial and breakbeat in the early 1990s to electronic rock with punk vocal elements in later times. The current band members include Liam Howlett (composer/keyboards), Keith Flint (dancer/vocalist) and Maxim Reality (MC/vocalist). Leeroy Thornhill (dancer/very occasional live keyboards) was a member of the band from 1990 to 2000, as was a female dancer/vocalist called Sharky who left the band during their early period. The Prodigy first emerged on the underground rave scene in the early 1990s, and have since then achieved immense popularity and worldwide renown. Some of their most popular songs include "Charly", "Out of Space", "No Good (Start the Dance)", "Voodoo People", "Poison", "Firestarter", "Breathe", "Smack My Bitch Up", "Omen" & "Warrior's Dance."

The name displayed on album covers changed from "The Prodigy" to "Prodigy" between Music for the Jilted Generation and The Fat of the Land in 1997 and back again with the release of Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned in 2004. However, Howlett has stated that the title has always been "The Prodigy". The change was made only to fit within the displayed logo, according to Howlett. dalje

Jako mi je žao da ih još nisam vidjela uživo...to mora da je doživljaj samo takav...

Gledao sam ih live 2007. i 2009, na Main Stage-u na EXIT-u oba puta..

Rave on!!!

PRODIGYYYY

i meni je zao sto nisam bila a pripremala sam se pola godine

Gledao ih live 4 puta. Sve bolji i bolji. Novi album je fantastican. Sve himna do himne, pravi oldschool zvuk. Jedan od retkih bendova koji jos nije izneverio a u vrhu je muzicke industrije.
