Liam Prodigy - Back To Mine

2005 has been yet another massive year for The Prodigy, releasing ´Their Law – The Singles 1990-2005´ in October and their current massive UK tour. Packed with 15 genre defining singles the retrospective is a must have, and now is your chance to get inside the heart and mind of one of dance music´s most pioneering and revered producers, as Liam Prodigy invites you back to his for the latest volume of DMC´s acclaimed ´Back To Mine´ series.

Kicking off in explosive style with the exclusive Prodigy track ´Wake The Fuck Up´, you are left in no doubt as to when this afterhours party starts. Right now. It´s a party starter, twisted party starter, and as Liam says "It´s kind of drum and bass punk rock. Its only gonna be ever available on this record."

"The idea that a Back To Mine compilation should be mellow makes me laugh. Surely the fun begins when you get home! Sometimes it´s so good I don´t bother going out. Diversity is the key for me, that´s just what I´m about." - Liam Howlett

It´s undoubtedly the original-and-best "influences" series, and having showcased some 22 of the most revered and interesting favourite artists, the beauty of this series of compilations is you get a feel for what´s shaped the creative process for the hosts´ own material. With that in mind, it´s easy to see why PiL ("This is one of my all time favourite records. It always finds its way on to the decks at some point in the night . Of course I love the pistols but Lydon proved he was versatile and could move on. It´s so uplifting to me but still unhinged . One of the only 1980´s pop songs I truly love.") and Meat Beat Manifesto are on there, but who´d have thought that the King of Gnarl would have a penchant for Dolly Parton ("In a time when a lot of modern music is bass obsessed (including me) this record has none! When I played it at a party round mine her voice just sounded so pure that it just soared above everything else. Everybody was asking me what the fuck it was. I said it was just a great record – I didn´t want to scare them off!"!

"“I put this record together because it´s like a photo album to me. 20 years of musical inspiration, memories and good times. Something to keep." – Liam Howlett

With a truly inspired selection encompassing the best of old and new, banging and serene, Liam Howlett invites you step in to his world.
For an hour or so at least…
