    I know having the videos is a hassle with copyright, but there are established ways to do it without being demonetized, and I say this only because this is one of the most iconic music videos of all time. you two react to a lot of songs that are very famous for their music videos, and just reacting to the song feels like it's missing a crucial ingredient. it's not quite like reacting to the video without the music, but it's like, 75%

      me too!! metal head thru and true and I still love Prodigy to this day. My boyfriend at the time customized trucks and cars for dealerships and people looking for the latest cool thing for their vehicle. at the time he had an Oldsmobile 98. the trunk space was huge because the car was a tank. he put a sound system in it and Prodigy was one of the CDs we'd play in his car and it sounded AMAZING! It sounded so good, when customers would come in for stereo systems the audio guys would take them out to his car so they could hear his system. he collected many noise ordinance tickets. decibel levels were out of control. anyway, he eventually sold the car because he was going to lose his license for too many tickets. it was too tempting to keep. eventually got to see then in San Antonio and they did not disappoint. good times! great memories.

    In this episode of Brad & Lex, the low distorted repetitiveness of synth, muffled bass and restricted drum beats create anticipation as well as a "double dutch bop" upon a giddy Lex who shortly after catching the hard rhythm, continues along producing an array of "bops" including the classic "bobble, "metronome", the "spell caster", "crossfit" and "river hands". Lex later describes the 1997 chart topper as "spinny" while a very grounded Brad displays a slight "sway".

    I'll never forget the experience of seeing The Prodigy at the Reading Festival in the UK back in 1996, before "Fat of the Land" was released. They opened their set with this. I was a Prodigy fan but this was brand new material at the time. I recall a friend thinking Maxim was shouting "Smash My Picture" and we walked around for months after that shouting "Smash my picture, Change my picture" at random people until we finally heard the official album release in 1997. The original video is worth seeing, but it's hard to find these days. The ending spells it all out! I may be 49 now, but we had some crazy stuff back in the 90's that I still love dearly. Plenty of new music I enjoy too.

      @christoffesedao3579 2 года назад +12

      Lol - there’s a little more to it than that. The bassline and some of the lyrics are sampled from the 1988 track "Give The Drummer Some" by The Ultramagnetic MC's, where Kool Keith raps: "Change my pitch up, smack my bitch up like a pimp." So the meaning of the lyrics originally was given by the Ultramagnetics. Kool Keith was Prodigy's favorite rapper. He and the other Ultramagnetics received a composer credit for their sample. Prodigy say that to them it is about doing everything with vigor. Of course the video confuses the public cuz there is actual drug fueled sexual assaults happening but there’s a nice twist at the end.

    So many reactors are reacting to the Prodigy from this period in their career. It would be worth reacting to one of their early rave tunes to give you some idea of where they evolved from and how their music changed. You probably don't realise no one had hardly heard Keith singing until Firestarter was released some 7 years into their life as a band.

    Prodigy lyrics are just to enhance the music. It's all about being in the moment and letting the music (and whatever drug(s) you are on) take you to another place. This is peak rave scene music so it is designed to be consumed in a live setting but can be just as fun to listen to on your own or with some friends.

    The Prodigy sort of took the world by storm in the mid 90's. They came out of nowhere and brought the underground to the mainstream with a sound that noone had heard before and while they were pretty influential i can't recall any other artist that sounds like them. :)

    • @CoffeeConnected

      There was a rave act called Acen who sounded pretty close to their early sound. They were both doing a similar thing at around the same time. He was excellent in his own right.
      And at around the time of their 3rd album The Fat of the Land there was a degree of similarity with some of The Chemical Brother's songs, due to the Big Beat sound being prominent at that time.
      Junkie XL also did some Prodigy inspired stuff around the time of The Fat of the Land.

    Not for a club.... for a field.
    This stems from the days of illegal raves in farmers fields, pay the farmer a small fee, set up a soundsystem and some lights, sell some tickets and give out cryptic clues to were it was (to avoid the police) , i spent a few nights waiting outside service stations (truckstops) waiting for directions to some random field in the middle of the night, but when you found it...what a trip.
    Although this track came after the illegal raves had died away, the band became festival regulars and once again this music sounded amazing... in a field.
    I seen them live one time in a massive circus tent, that was an amazing experience, when they play live those massive bass drops shake the ground, you can feel it through your whole body from the feet up.

    The 90s was an era of major musical experimentation and genre bending groups.
    For every bubbly pop group and boy band you had these other groups making the craziest sounds.
    It was a party! No matter if you mainly liked rap or rock or metal or pop or industrial or techno, you still found yourself enjoying music from artists way outside of your typical genre.
    Some of these electronic groups were heavier than some of the rock bands.
    Prodigy had that gritty punk energy and phat break beats. Their music was infectious. I was a teen when they came out and their music both shocked me and pumped me up haha

    The best electronic dance music was from the 90's, particularly Britain. The vocal sample is from a US group, the Ultramagnetic MC's "Give the drummer some". "Change my pitch up, smack my bitch up" because Liam has sampled and "pitched" the vocal up. Superficially, the song sounds misogynist, until you watch the videoclip, which reveals an irony at the end. ;)

    I first heard Trugoy from De La Soul say the phrase “Change my pitch up, smack my bitch up…” in the 1993 song Ego Trip. I always figured Prodigy took the phrase from there (not as a sample but just the words) and ran with it. But I don’t know if De La Soul were the first to use it or not.

I think you can find it with images blurred out. It may have been blocked if you tried to do it. But there are some amazing live performances of this band playing everywhere from Dublin, Ireland to Moscow. The energy and intensity of the shows are off the charts with the crowds just going wild.

    The phrase "Smack my bitch up" translates to: "Request another to inject you with Heroin or get you high.

"Bitch" being slang for the main vein running down your arm in which heroin is usually injected.
