Crowdfunder for Keith Flint mural to raise mental health awareness
A street artist who has painted murals of Marcus Rashford, Sir Captain Tom Moore and David Bowie, has set his sights on a wall in Hackney, to pay tribute to The Prodigy frontman Keith Flint.
Manchester artist Akse P19 is working with music and mental wellbeing festival Headstock to pay homage to the Firestarter vocalist, and raise awareness for mental health support services.
The new artwork will be in Beechwood Road in Dalston – a short walk away from the site of the old Four Aces club where The Prodigy played their first gig.
Founder of Headstock Atheer Al-Salim said: "Keith Flint was one of the most innovative and influential music artists of his generation but, like many of us, he struggled with his mental health and tragically took his own life."
The mural is due to be completed in time for World Suicide Prevention Day on 10 September, and is being created to raise awareness of mental health text support service / charity – Shout 85258. The artwork will feature both the charity’s logo and number.
The project follows on from a mural of Joy Division’s Ian Curtis which we unveiled in Manchester to coincide with World Mental Health Day 2020.
A crowdfunder was set up to fund the mural, with a target of £12,500 needed to be pledged by August 31.
Check the crowdfunding page and help raise the funds needed to complete the work.
There was also a special Jilted Day on Dazed Digital when Jilted turned 20. Check it out with articles including a Q&A with Liam Howlett, an exclusive playlist selected by The Prodigy, an interview with Sewart Haygarth and Les Edwards the men behind The Prodigy’s most iconic album sleeve and more.

Maxim and Dan Pearce Launch Art, Film and Music Project
Maxim and mixed-media artist, Dan Pearce have collaborated on the powerful and poignant, pandemic Hope project, which will see the May 20 launch of 50 limited edition sculptures, containing an exclusive, four-track Maxim EP as well as the release of an accompanying short film, featuring Maxim, his new music and starring Pearce’s son, to tell the story behind the pair’s sculpture.
The project will launch with a VIP private view at London’s new 99 Projects gallery on 19 May, and the Hope exhibition be available for public view until 7 June.
The acclaimed artists spent a year over lockdown creating the ambitious, multi-platform collaboration, which is inspired by the “Hope” that everybody is clinging onto, as we gradually ease out of the devastation wreaked by Coronavirus.
They will be donating one sculpture to NHS Charities Together , one to young people’s mental health charity, YoungMinds and one to homeless charity Shelter, to raise funds for those most affected by the outbreak - themes which are explored in their moving film.
On May 20, the pair will release an edition of 50 sculptures created together, depicting a little boy - based on Pearce’s son - wearing a gas mask and preparing to pull the pin on a clear, resin grenade, containing a heart, which represents the vaccine and the hope that will help us navigate our post-lockdown worlds. The grenade is a recurring symbol and theme in Maxim’s art, which includes highly sought-after paintings, prints and sculptures created during his 18 years in the art world. The pieces demonstrate Dan’s skills in 3D modelling and Maxim’s experience floating objects in resin.
Their short film touches on the mental health implications the virus has had on children, showing Pearce’s 11-year-old son, Jackson living through the pandemic. It also references the pandemic’s impact on homelessness - with a moving cameo from Maxim, playing a person living on the streets - as well as austerity, with touching food bank scenes. It closes with a strong message of kindness, giving and the ‘hope’ that it is named after, showing the little boy in a gas mask about to pull the grenade pin - mirroring the sculpture itself.
The soundtrack to the film is also titled ‘Hope’ and will be released along with three other tracks on a Hope EP, on bespoke memory cards inside the sculptures, exclusively for buyers of the sculptures on 20 May. The music will then be released to the public three months later, via digital outlets like Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon on the Red Room Arts label.
Dan explains: “We’ve known each other for a few years as we both exhibited art at the same galleries and attended each other's exhibitions, so we always chatted about doing a collaboration. “Lockdown gave us that opportunity and we wanted the project to deal with this difficult year, while demonstrating the positive message about the role hope now plays.”
Maxim adds: “Making this has been exciting. And it was really special to have a cameo, playing somebody who was homeless and was also an angel.
“We are in times of uncertainty, but I believe the answer to our problems is the four letter word, ‘love’.”
The sculptures will be released as a limited edition of 50 in assorted, hand-painted colours with ten special editions, which will have Swarovski Crystals added by Dan and Maxim. They will be available via galleries including Enter Gallery and Clarendon Fine Art, as well as the artists’ respective websites. Five of the exclusive hand-painted sculptures will be available in TAP Galleries at Selfridges.
The short film is the acting debut of Jackson, and its director John Smith - who met Dan as one of his art clients - said: “Jackson had an innocence and no acting school baggage. He just understood what the part was about - a boy struggling amidst his covid nightmare.”
Dan’s work is collected by everybody from Idris Elba, Boy George, Anthony Joshua and 50 Cent, to will.i.am, Rag N Bone Man and a host of Premiership footballers. He was named “one of the UK’s most collectable, emerging artists” by Shortlist and his work employs spray paint, hand- painted acrylics, lenticular, neon lights, 3D objects, screen-printing, textured resin, gold leaf and collage, as well as his own photography and street art.
Art was originally a means of winding down between tours with chart- topping band, The Prodigy, but Maxim has cemented his reputation as an acclaimed, mixed media artist and designer. Grenades carried on the breeze by a raft of red balloons; clown-faced butterflies brandishing Samurai swords, and gun-toting cats are just a few of the surreal fantasy worlds created by Maxim, using everything from spray paint, resin, acrylic, ceramics and bronze to objects like bullets, blades and pills.

Keith Flint - The Lollies
Monsieur Gainsbourg Revisited is a tribute album to the works of late French singer/songwriter Serge Gainsbourg. First released on Virgin Records in 2006, it consists of English language cover versions of Gainsbourg songs, performed by a diverse array of contemporary artists. Gainsbourg's former wife, Jane Birkin, sang on one track. The album charted in France (#8), Switzerland (#23) and Belgium (#6 Wa, #29 Vl). By the time of his death in 1991 Serge Gainsbourg was a French national institution, as beloved for his outrageous behaviour in public (often drunk, always in a haze of Gitane smoke) as for his music. Now his continuing influence on les anglo-saxons is marked by a new CD of his songs performed by his admirers - including Franz Ferdinand, Jarvis Cocker and Tricky.
Apparently Keith Flint recorded his version of Serge Gainsbourg - Les Sucettes but it didn't make to the final release. Some years ago MP3 was leaked online but it didn't gain much attention among The Prodigy fans.
Original tracklisting
"A Song for Sorry Angel" - Franz Ferdinand & Jane Birkin
"I Love You (Me Either)" ("Je t'aime... moi non plus") - Cat Power & Karen Elson
"I Just Came to Tell You That I'm Going" ("Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais") - Jarvis Cocker & Kid Loco
"Requiem for Anna" - Portishead
"Requiem for a Jerk" ("Requiem pour un con") - Faultline, Brian Molko & Françoise Hardy
"L'Hôtel" - Michael Stipe
"Au Revoir Emmanuelle" - Tricky
"Lola R. for Ever" - Marianne Faithfull & Sly and Robbie
"Boomerang 2005" - Gonzales, Feist & Dani
"Boy Toy" - Marc Almond and Trash Palace
"The Ballad of Melody Nelson" - Placebo
"Just a Man with a Job" - The Rakes
"I Call It Art" - The Kills
"Those Little Things" - Carla Bruni
American edition bonus tracks
"The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde" - James Iha & Kazu Makino
"Angels Fall" - Nina Persson & Nathan Larson
-------
The Gainsbourg estate's considerable royalties income, and the approval of Gainsbourg-related projects, are in the hands of the artist's four children, the products of the singer's three major relationships: Natacha and Paul Ginsburg, the children of his youthful sweetheart Elisabeth, whom he left at the first hint of show-business success; Charlotte, his daughter with Jane Birkin; and Lulu, the child of his last partner, Bambou. Unfortunately, they don't all see eye to eye, hence the problems with the new CD. "Natacha and Paul don't approve of the constant emphasis of their father's risqué Gainsbarre side," says Jean-Daniel Beauvallet. "They hated the new 'Je T'Aime' - they said Serge would never have approved a lesbian version." The day was eventually saved by scholarship: the discovery of an obscure Japanese cover version from the 70s, by two girl singers, in effect a Japanese lesbian 'Je T'Aime' (triple points) which Gainsbourg, Jane Birkin could affirm, had loved. Bingo.
The Natacha and Paul veto was not lifted, however, from another track. This was a version of "Les Sucettes" (The Lollipops), the song which naughty old Serge famously put in the demure teenage mouth of the debutante France Gall, and which was "revisited" by Keith Flint, of the Prodigy. A great track, apparently, with a wild string section playing the parts of all the instruments. So why was it shelved - the point about "Les Sucettes" was surely its lack of explicitness, the double entendre being in the ear of the listener? "Well, it was the licking noises that Keith put in," says Beauvallet. Flint's lascivious slurping, it appears, tipped the balance of probability too far away from the consumption of confectionery and the Ginsburg thumbs went down. Tant pis.
("Les Sucettes" ("Lollipops") is a French pop song written by Serge Gainsbourg and first recorded by France Gall in 1966. One of Gall's biggest hits, it was an unusually risqué song for its time, though in performing it she was unaware of the fact. Gainsbourg recorded his own version, with a psychedelic arrangement, on the 1969 album Jane Birkin/Serge Gainsbourg.)

Jilted Generations: An Underground Tribute To The Prodigy
Here is the release info for this tribute which was released on 17th September 2019 which would have been Keith's 50th birthday.
Keith Charles Flint was an English vocalist, dancer, and occasional motorcycle racer, best known to a wide audience for his work with the seminal electronic group The Prodigy. Beginning as a backup dancer with the group, Flint would later become a frontman for The Prodigy by 1996, lending his appearances as a songwriter and vocalist to some of their biggest commercial hits, such as "Firestarter", "Breathe", "Baby's Got A Temper", and "Omen". Flint's iconic punk-inspired appearance became indelibly associated with the group through their music videos, and almost certainly played a major role in The Prodigy's mainstream success, and legacy as a key influence in the subgenres of big beat, breakbeat, and hardcore dance.
On March 4th, 2019, Keith Flint was found dead in his Essex home of a suspected suicide, as The Prodigy was in the midst of a major world tour. A massive outpouring of grief and tribute from peers such as The Chemical Brothers, Liam Gallagher, Azealia Banks, Gary Numan, Ho99o9, Frank Turner, and many more soon followed. These tributes reflected not just on the major influence and contributions Flint had made via The Prodigy, but of his gentle temperment, wide-reaching generosity, and warmth as an individual, in sharp contrast to his aggressive stage persona.
With "Jilted Generations: An Underground Tribute To The Prodigy", we hope to show our love as well.
Who are we? Just a loose collection of underground electronic and industrial musicians who want to pay tribute to the long-lasting legacy of Keith Flint, and have come together with 12 hard-hitting covers of tracks by The Prodigy to show our appreciation for the man and his enduring influence on music.
TRACKLIST 01. Big Time Kill - Fuel My Fire
02. BILIAN (feat. Doomdriver) - The Day Is My Enemy
03. The Mask Of Sanity - Breathe
04. STAHLSCHLAG - No Good (Start The Dance)
05. Zovi - Firestarter
06. IMPERFEXION - Omen
07. Louis Guidone Musician and Photographer (feat. Mera Roberts) - Smack My Bitch Up
08. Transdusk - Run With The Wolves
09. Flesh Eating Foundation - Nasty
10. Sawtooth (feat. Droast) - Mindfields

The singer was discovered unconscious at the property near Dunmow, Essex at around 8am this morning, after police were called over what they described as 'concerns for his welfare'.
Paramedics attempted to resuscitate him but he was pronounced dead at the scene. Police are not treating the death as suspicious.
The band said in a statement: 'It is with deepest shock and sadness that we can confirm the death of our brother and best friend Keith Flint.
'A true pioneer, innovator and legend. He will be forever missed. We thank you for respecting the privacy of all concerned at this time.'

Dirtchamber sessions 2 in 2019?
There has been lots of speculating among the fans that will there ever be Dirtchamber sessions volume 2. Now in recent australian interviews Liam has been giving out some positive comments that it might even come out this year. It's been 20 years since the original release so it would be about a time to get the part 2.
GL0WKiD Generation X [RadioShow] “No Tourists” Special
Tune in to GL0WKiD Generation X [RadioShow] “No Tourists” Special!
Brace yourself for a special 90′ prodigized mayhem mixing out “No Tourists” under a ..glowing formula alongside also special contributions by various fans of the show, listeners & warriors from all around the globe, sharing their thoughts about the new album.
The Prodigy score seventh Number 1 album in UK with No Tourists
The Prodigy land straight in at Number 1 with their latest album No Tourists in UK charts.
The band's seventh studio album (ninth overall including greatest hits and live albums) lands at the top with 24,000 combined sales and streams, finishing ahead of the A Star Is Born cast recording, which holds at 2.
Seven Number 1 albums means The Prodigy rank among an elite group of acts with the most leaders on the Official Albums Chart. They join the likes of Elton John, Paul McCartney, Coldplay and George Michael, who each have seven Number 1 records. The Beatles hold the title with 15.
Jim Pavloff who has been famously recreating many classic Prodigy tracks on You Tube has been given opportunity to remix The Prodigy's newest single Need Some1. It's really nice to see that Liam and the co. gives some recognition to him that he really deserves!
The remix itself has a nice original and oldskool vibe in it. All other remixes have been so generic that this one really stands out!
The track is 'Need Some1' and it has been already available on some online music services but not in Spotify. Track is short (2:41) and bit repeatable but you still can recognize Liam Howlett's trademark production style. The first live version of the track was first introduced in Tilburg, Netherlands 11.12.2017. This new released version anyhow contains more new parts that has not been heard on live versions.
Criminal Tribe Records are proud to present the first part of a series of tribute albums dedicated to the creation of the legendary The Prodigy group, which carry a rethinking of a number of their works from the residents of Criminal Tribe ltd.
With this project, Criminal Tribe Records team wants to pay tribute to the genius artists, whose work has radically influenced our development and becoming.
The first mini-album includes two works:
- The Prodigy — Narayan [Interra Tribute Remix];
- The Prodigy — Girls [Little Orange UA Tribute Remix].
Versions in WAV format you can free download from official page on SoundCloud

Former Prodigy member Leeroy Thornhill releases new music
While we are still eagerly waiting new Prodigy music is ex-Prodigy Leeroy Thornhill recently reignited his creative character by joining forces with the legendary Get Hype Records.
With a massive five track EP featuring two heart-thumping originals by Leeroy himself accompanied by three remixes by figureheads such as Adamski, Smooth, and Get Hype head honchos The Prototypes.
A new The Prodigy single and an album are on the way!
Liam posted a message on Instagram and Facebook that The Prodigy will release a new single before the end of this year and album will follow early next year!
Probable collaborations are the Ragga Twinz, Brother Culture, Shahin Badar and Dizzee Rascal. It's also pretty sure that Olly Burden might have some involvement too.
We Eat Rhythm is a prestige limited edition reworking of the acclaimed biography of The Prodigy. It features brand new and exclusive interviews, photos and illustrations and covers the period from the band’s emergence to the release of the highly controversial ‘Baby’s Got a Temper’. It will be followed in 2018 by the biography We Live for Beats that takes a close look at the Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned to The Day is My Enemy era.
Liam posted a pic from studio with the new Roland TB-03 Bass line synth. TB-03 is a direct descendant of the famous TB-303 Bass Line Synth which is especially famous of it's acid sounds. It's good to see Liam is really working at the studio since there has been quite much rumors lately about loads of different collaborations going on.
The Prodigy played their first gig after Rob Holliday left the band in ZÜRICH OPENAIR, Switzerland. Olly Burden from the band Hounds was the new guitarist for that gig. It's not yet sure if he will be permanent guitarist for the band but at least we know that he has been working with Liam with new stuff on studio. Olly has been in the studio together with Liam on last albums and credited on co-writing on "Wall of Death".
25th August 2017
The Prodigy and guitarist Rob Holliday have parted their ways
The Prodigy announced today on their Facebook page that Rob and the band have agreed to part their ways. This also means that we won't see Rob on remaining gigs this year. We'll see if there will be replacement for him or will the boys tour without guitars for a while.
Theprodigy.info wants to thank Rob for being a vital part of the live shows for 12 years! We wish you all the best in the future! You can read more about Rob on his personal bio.

Liam's Roland TR-707 drum machine
One of Liam's Roland TR-707 drum machines was donated in 2011 as part of an auction to raise money for The British Red Cross Charity to help people affected by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. This machine was used by Liam on the Invaders Must Die single. This piece of The Prodigy history has now been added to the collectables section.
The Prodigy retuned to Russia and played 4 nights with their standard set. This is no surprise for fans but some would have hoped a lot more since Liam has been constantly saying that there will be at least new beats comin' (if not whole new tunes). I personally feel a bit sorry for the Russian Warriors since they are really dedicated and hardcore fans and would have deserved something special. The band got more than 70 songs (not to include all b-sides and remixes) to choose from and they still play nearly same set than they have been playing years. Is it a too much to ask a little bit of variation? That might actually give some freshness and new ideas to the band also.
As nothing new and exciting isn't really happening I have started to update and build up the Articles section. The plan is to archive the good old days and all that glory from the past years. Now I also have a separate sections for english, finnish, japanese and russian articles & scans!
So fans, please help if you got something to share with the other warriors out there!

No new music but limited edition action figures
The fans are eagerly waiting The Prodigy to drop some new music finally on 2017 as Liam Howlett has promised. Early this week Liam teased us on Instagram with "The Prodigy Rave Heroes" photo. Some fans had hopes for a new EP but as most commented on to the photo that might not the case. Well yes, instead of new music The Prodigy announced an exclusive limited edition art figures collection with award winning British Artist RYCA (aka Ryan Callanan).
RYCA is well known for his series of hip hop legends including figures of biggie, 2pac and eazy-e which led him to approach the band to make his ‘rave heroes’ collection. And as we know Liams love to action heroes and studio "pets" this was a collaboration to happen sooner or later.
The partnership resulted in the creation of a strictly limited, hand sculpted set of chrome-plated 3.75” scale art figures featuring band members Liam Howlett, Keith Flint and Maxim.
Highly collectible, Ryca has produced a limited edition of 250 sets using styling clay and modelling wax to produce a silicone mould from which resin casts are made.
In addition to these there are 10 sets gilded in 23.5ct gold leaf, not available for purchase anywhere, but sent out at random to ten buyers of the original 250 sets of art figures sold.
The boxes feature backdrop artwork from the band’s live shows and are silkscreened and hand printed for each spot colour. Every box is individually numbered and hand signed by Liam, Keith, Maxim and Ryca.
Pre-sale opened Wednesday April 5th at 10am BST, exclusively via The Prodigy website.
General release began Friday April 7th at 10am BST with sets available from theprodigy.com and Art Republic.
RYCA (Ryan Callanan) is an award winning artist based in Essex, UK. Already a prominent artist on the street Art scene, the last three years have seen Ryan move away from this aesthetic towards a new practice that draws upon his in-depth knowledge of materials and craftsmanship acquired through his training in industrial model making and 3-D design.
On teaming up with Prodigy RYCA said “The Prodigy have been the soundtrack in my life since I was playing with action figures, I'm now immortalising my rave heroes as art toys ...”.
Leeroy Thornhill has surprised us all and made a fresh remix of The Prodigy classic. His brand new edit of Everybody In The Place is available on his Sound Cloud.

times in a row in his radio show on BBC 1. After that the song was released on
theprodigy.com and iTunes.
This imminent release was probably because Nasty release wasn't really a big success. The
track was indeed
really poor choice for a first single and Liam might have noticed that too. Shame that this
happened a
little too late and damage was already done. Nasty is really lacking all the energy Prodigy
is known for.
The Day is My Enemy is in the other hand better comeback track. It's dark and angry. Really
a slap in the
face it should be. Industrial sounds with Always Outnumbered styled vocals. A REAL SICK
BANGER! Hooray for
LIAM!

Watch Nasty video
Video for Nasty is now at youtube. To be honest this track really needs this kind of strong and powerful video to promote it. This wasn't really the bomb that I and other fans were expecting because high the Prodigy standards. Anyway better than this EDM shit out there now and THE PRODIGY IS DEFINITELY BACK. Hopefully the album will bring us more "violent sounding tracks" like Liam has told in many interviews already.

Nasty is The Prodigy's new single!
Last night Spor aka Feed Me played his own remix of Nasty at Worcester Palladium in his Dj
set. Recordings
of that are already floating around the net. You can hear Keith's vocals, some ethnic melody
and even a
snippet of Eagle Break. With that very same break Liam used to tease his instagram followers
when they were
recording new album at Sarm studios.

Nasty will
be the first single and released in January 2015!

New Album Release Date & some new track names revealed
In the October issue of Q Magazine Liam & the band are interviewed at the studio. Liam
also reveals
some of the track names. The album will be released in February 2015. Tracks names revealed:
Beyond The
Death Ray, Ibiza, Nasty Nasty, Get Your Fight On, Wall of Death & Rottweiler.
"Wall of Death is off-the-Richter-scale terror techno, bearing the command 'Fuck you and the
heart
attack'. The albums one cinematic breather is 'Beyond the Death Ray' where the rhythm drops,
allowing a
futuristic Blade Runner soundscape to build to critical mass" - Q Magazine
Toazted.com has got an interview from Liam, Keith and Maxim at on the 2005 Lowlands festival where The Prodigy was one of the headlining acts. They talked about the new album that will probably see the light of day late next year.
When Toazted.com reporter Paul asked the guys about a new album just before the great show on the main stage, this was the answer we got;
"It's cooking now. We've done 3 bits of music now. It should be out the end of next year. We play 4 new tunes in our set already. On the new album, the fundament will stay the same. Bass, beats and Bullocks. It's kinda what goes on top. The new album is gonna be more melodic."
The guys also told toazted.com about a greatest hits album they will release in October 2005 It's going to be a double album; one cd with their main hits and one with live material, rare releases and remixes.

The long awaited follow up to The Prodigy's 1997 Fat Of The Land album was showcased in London Thursday. Clips of six songs were played, ’Girlz’, ’Get Up Get Off’, ’Wake Up’, ’Ice’, ’1.9.6.5’ and ’Hotride’.
'Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned' is now almost finished, and scheduled for a release in August this year.
Produced by Liam Howlett the new tracks have a full on sexy, dirty beat with any vocals way down in the mix and no immediately obvious contribution from Keith Flint as frontman.
The new material NME.COM heard was almost industrial in sound, and a marked difference to ’Baby’s Got A Temper’.
Liam told to nekozine.co.uk: "This album is about reminding people what the Prodigy was always about - the beats and the music. The vocals on this record are mostly used as an extension of the sound rather than the main focal point. like 'Jilted' (1994's 'Music For The Jilted Generation') , Keith (Flint) and Maxim weren't involved musically and they are not on this album. ALL three of us will be together to do what we do and play this record live and rock it later in the year, we can't fuckin' wait!
"You will probably begin to hear stuff early summer and the new album will hit in August. "
The Prodigyn vokalistina ja tanssijana tunnettu Keith Flint tuo uuden Flint -yhtyeensä
Ruisrockiin.
Flintin Ruisrockin keikka on osa bändin kesäkuussa julkaistavaa debyyttilevyä tukevaa
kiertuetta. Kiertue
alkaa Lontoon Scalasta 11.6. Tulevalta levyltä on tähän mennessä julkaistu rajoitetun
painoksen omaava
single"Asteroids".
Tyylillisesti Flint liikkuu jossain Sex Pistolsin ja Ministryn välimaastossa. Asteroidsilla
Keith Flint
keuhkoaa lontoolaispainotuksilla kuin Johnny Rotten aikanaan, bändin taustajoukoista
kitaristi Jim Davies
muistetaan Pitchshifterin riveistä. Kokoonpanossa vaikuttaa ennakkotietojen mukaan lisäksi
kaksi rumpalia,
Kieron Pepper ja Tony Howlett.
Flintin levyn tuottaa Killing Joke -legenda Youth. Levyltä julkaistaan aluksi yksi video
biisistä
nimeltään Aim 4. Videosta vastaa ruotsalainen Jonas Åkerlund. Jonas Åkerlund on
kansainvälisten
markkinoiden kuumin video-ohjaaja viime vuosilta, Äkerlundin provokatiivista kädenjälkeä on
nähty mm.
Prodigyn, Madonnan ja U2:n videoilla.
