Reviews & Discussion
In its coherence an for all time absolutely outstanding album of Breakbeat + Jungle Core released in the early 90ies by the unique PRODIGY. Whole and complete just so much about dancing, raving & breakz like there is no comparison. Alec Empire sort of tried it but is too political ... But "Experience" goes beyond, tracks merge into each other, fit right in there ... This is ulitmate, ok: imagine yourself on E to this ... In the year 2007 still so fresh, and I will listen to this in 2057 and there won't be any loss of genius ... Just one other guy from the UK who is so unique: Ed Rush ... But then that surely is a different issue. THX to THE PRODIGY !!!
Every track on Experience is an absolute killer. I remember driving around with some friends with this on the car stereo and not even wanting to skip to the next tune - for the whole album, even with the slow burner Weather Experience (fine acid).
The best track IMHO is Everybody is in The Place - it is just a pure unadulterated rave track - which has got to be exactly what Liam Howlett was trying to do with the entire album. Timeless quality.

For fans of "The Weather Experience" I would reccomend "Dope On Plastic" by Uptown, the Hiphop track from which the break was lifted wholesale. Credit for extracting that small fragment of drum greatness goes to Dante "The Scrub" Ross and the great Chris Moore.
Prodigy's ultimate mark on the UK rave industry was felt with this release. Pumping breakbeat's & synth riffs make this an unparallel breakthrough for music production. Its hard to compare this album with any other as it carry's such a unique blend of talent & precision accuracy to label it as pure rave in genre would'nt do it full justice, you have to hear it for yourself...
