One of most unknown, early and *raw as hell* TSD works…

2 Live Crew - We want some pussy (the Second Division remix)

Your BGAT release was a mistake, but your BGAT DUB mix was just a piece of shit on my face. I don’t know how actually talented I am, the olny thing I’ve earned with my music/remixes is bronchial asthma and years of disappointment, I guess it’s justly, I don’t give a fuck. Just listen that. There is a bunch of asslickers around you, they don’t care what to sell under “Prodigy” brand. And there are thousands people behind your equipment and hands. My hands is a half of your hands. When you drink your champagne I discover hangover. When you tour with old tracks I feel that I’ve lost years for nothing. Fuck your money, fuck your dress, fuck your social status, fuck your label, fuck controversial Prodigy status, fuck your bomb tracks, fuck your new apple laptops, fuck your ableton live and complicated structure of your fucking “back 2 school”, fuck your interviews full of fresh sound, fuck your photos I never seen, fuck your korg I never played on, fuck your dodge I never drove, fuck your gigs I never been on, fuck your autograph I never needed, fuck your promo periods, fuck lyrics in your songs, fuck collaborations, fuck 5000 mixes of your bells, fuck your new cool website design, fuck your diary messages, fuck your respect I’ll never get! Break a fuck and ruin the band. Cheers!

Hey, that was a toast for my BGAT remix 3 years anniversary! Respect goes to Brainkiller, thanks for sponsoring the remix!

One more remix Liam Howlett never heard of: Prodigy - Baby’s Got A Temper (the Second Division remix)

P.S.

taken from http://www.dreamsongs.com/:

Most artists work without benefactors or patrons; little, or less, is paid for their work; the work appears in small venues, in unread magazines, on unvisited websites, or disappears into drawers and trunks and discovered, maybe, by children or grandchildren. We become confused when greed is grafted onto art. Musicians—it is said—would stop making music if there were not the possibility of great financial rewards for it; and if that happened, some people say, music would dry up. The argument stems from Johnson’s indolent comment: “No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money.” But, if we were to be deprived of every composition by professional composers and every note played by professional musicians—relying only on currently unnamed and unknown composers and players—we would enjoy a quality of music equal to what we are used to. The same goes for film, fiction, plays, art, and every other artistic endeavor. —Because behind every professional producing art of any sort are hundreds or thousands or even more amateurs who are every bit as talented and skilled, and who produce as fine art as the paid professional.

Each artist working alone at home with little chance of an audience is producing a gift that requires only a recipient to become fulfilled. This is the purest form of gift, and somehow we all know that the giver expects nothing in return, and we properly feel that nothing needs to be given.

Fuck my luck I never had!

I was never happy with my software and hardware config since I got PC. In 2003 I got new software and I could not wait to test it, so, I reworked Carmen Queasy remix just to feel the difference.
I’m not sure what version Maxim has heard, but he said he liked the mix and that’s quite enough for me. He also promised to do a remix contest for a place on his new single, but I bet it’s gonna take another ages, so, unfortunaly I don’t give a damn about the contest. There was no a proper contest organized by Prodigy. All of them were pure shit, both - the conditions and the prize. So, Liam and Maxim, I won’t do any remix for a shit, I’d rather do it for free, sorry.
 
 

Maxim feat. Skin - Carmen Queasy (the Second Division remix [version 2003])

My other early Poison variation. Actually, none of the early mixes have no name, I never thought about publishing them before. So, I give the names according to the samples used. This “voodoo” mix uses main lead synth from Voodoo People. Damn, I feel a surge of pride that my hardware was pure pain comparing to Liam’s Roland W-30…hehe

the Second Division - Prodigy Poison (Voodoo)

So, it’s spring 2001 and I’m 19. I decided to remix Maxim’s song Carmen Queasy which was released one year ago (2000). The problem was that I wanted to use the vocal but I had no idea where I could find the acapella. Then I realized that I can get the vocal just by downmixing the original and the instrumental version of the song. I was sitting in #prodigy ircnet chat when Neko gave me an advise to use Napster (it was free p2p network these days) to download the instrumental version, so I did. Of course having of mp3 versions is not enough to get a proper vocal in the case, but I didn’t give a damn about quality and made the remix with things i had. The things I had were Penitum 3 - 500Mhz, FastTracker 2.09 and Generator (Reaktor). Also I’ve re-used some samples from Poison and Crystal Method for drums. It was my fist remix that reached my hardware and software top of the time.
