An illustrated biography of the legends of electronic music! «Glastonbury, June 1995. It is getting dark, and the field in front of the NME stage sways from side to side as the spotlights sweep over the crowd, and dissonant samples...
echo through the air. Maxim approaches the edge of the stage and stares into the night with wide, madness-filled eyes. He raises the microphone. «Glastonbury, are you ready to get wild?» The sound of shattering glass blasts at immense volume, and under the breakbeat of Break and Enter, thousands of dancing people transform into one giant mosh pit».
The Prodigy is not just a band; it is a true contemporary of English rave culture. It gathered the most massive, insane, and energetic concerts in London in the 1990s. The band members first showed the UK, and then the whole world, what it means to «let loose,» and they ignited a true cult of electronic music fans in all corners of the globe. In this book, written by the band's friend Martin James, The Prodigy members recall the atmosphere that reigned at underground London raves in the 1990s, how the band's first performances took place, where the idea for the musicians' strange outfits came from, and why rave never became protest music.
This is not just the story of The Prodigy; it is a true monument to rave music and the club parties of a bygone era.
