The Prodigy
Firestarter

Pyromaniacs in sight.

First single from "The Fat Of The Land", which launches the Prodigy to worldwide success and certifies the deviation towards the realms of Big Beat.

Even included in the soundtrack of Alarm for Cobra 11. We never stop learning...

"Firestarter" is another classic from the group and yet another track that makes you want to jump all around: as tradition goes, a nice guitar sample, seasoned with wah-wah, in a loop taken from the song "S.O.S." by the Breeders (a project created by Kim Deal, former Pixies); Keith Flint unleashes his voice that quite resembles Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, halfway between Hardcore Punk and Industrial; now as now, the beat is not the most original but it is always effective with its speaker-piercing bass.

Without dwelling on the instrumental version of "Firestarter", let's move directly to a monolith: "Firestarter (Empirion Mix)", where the Empirion do what they do best, creating a sharp, dark, claustrophobic, and damn Techno remix. I don't mean to say, but it even rocks more than the original.

We close the arson by slowing down with the penetrating "Molotov Bitch", one of the hidden gems traceable: raw and distorted beat that recalls the past sound more; squeaky hinges in the background, almost to deliberately annoy the listener. Relatively repetitive, more suitable for marijuana consumers.

Workhorse, this is for you. Now I have to run as the firefighters are coming.
