Baby’s got a temper, yeh?

Britney

Pop princess, yeh? American dream yeah? Remember Michel Jackson story? Something’s really wrong goin on in States. You know, I’ve been moaning a lot lately, Russia isn’t best place to live and stuff. But, now I think it’s the best one, for me, right now. I’m not rich, it’s been damn cold for weeks, but there are so many of things make me feel unique. I know a lot of stuff, I own a few internet projects, my head is full of ideas, I like *very* different music, sometime I think there is no culture or information I couldn’t comprehend. Really, need a rehabilitation? Come to Siberia. The thought is short, but I’ve got a whole year to tell you my stories and putting out new remixes.

Burn XL

THE PRODIGY are back with their own new label, and this time they’re doing it their way. Always fiercely independent, the band have decided to set up their new label Ragged Flag, which will be the platform for their next album release and will subsequently act as an outlet for new talent that they find.

Backed by UK Independent label Cooking Vinyl, the deal will allow the band to continue to enjoy total creative control over all aspects of their music and how it is presented.

Prodigy founder member Liam Howlett commented : ‘”We have been planning this for a while and we are looking forward to building our label up, starting off with the release of the new Prodigy album. We have recorded a few songs already for this next album and they are sounding big and mean!”

“The Prodigy are one of the most relevant bands to today’s world,” said Cooking Vinyl’s Managing Director Martin Goldschmidt. “It is a real honour to be entrusted with handling affairs for Ragged Flag. This is a fantastic start to 2007, and it is the start of a new era for Cooking Vinyl.”

Says Cooking Vinyl’s Product Director Rob Collins, “We can’t wait to start getting music out there and show everybody just how great this band is.”

Generally long-awaited and well-predicted news.. But I wouldn’t hurry to call it a good news. I’ve alread heard the “relevant”, “sounding big”. I haven’t heard any music from the label yet, and I suspect the new Prodigy album’s gonna be the last one for the Prodigy. I bet the guys are tired of being in the “relevant bands to today’s world”. And it seems it’s time to review their contracts. As an idle-fan of the Prodigy I’m tired of the Prodigy, I’m tired people lick band’s asses, I’m tired of pointless news, new eras, fantastic starts, “recorded few songs”.

Well, I’m curious what about XL? I assume they’re gonna wait for another Liam ‘impatient’ Howlett. Maybe I could resend them Liam’s demo tape to get a record deal, whacha think? Basically, I think XL’s gonna down. They’re too much conservative, they’re conservative so much I could call them lazy. If they weren’t lazy they could find a dozen of Liam Howlett’s around. They could become something more than just the Prodigy music store.

Generally long-awaited and well-predicted news.. But I’m not happy, the news sounds too damn cheap again..

Old wine

I’ve been listening to DJ Shadow recently and noticed how damn similar my old sound to the Shadow’s one. Some of my early tracks 90% samples based. Of course DJ Shadows has got damn deep hip-hot roots which I couldn’t have. But it seems I’ve got something hip-hopish through Prodigy music. It’s quite interesting to check out own old stuff where I just loved to use long and deep samples, voices and speeches, put the thing together within a couple of hours. The funny thing that DJ Shadow is a quite new artist to me, I never heard of him before 2003-2004 or something, and the tracks I’m talking about been done somewhere 1999-2002. The second less funny fact that the tracks is one of the most unheard music in the world, I’m not DJ Shadow ya know. The sad thing that I don’t collect my own music. I need a huge piece of an inspiration that make me sit and arrange emotions I feel to the sequencer. That fact makes pretty much wine of my tracks. The wine no one tested, the wine you won’t find on a conveyor belt.

The track about itself the Second Division - Weir.do (2001)

Give me a fucking break

PRODIGY star KEITH FLINT is marrying MAYUMI KAI on Saturday — and I hear he’s invited some unlikely people.

I’m A Celeb weirdo DAVID GEST is due to show up with jungle king MATT WILLIS.

It was always set to be an odd day with a wildman like Keith getting hitched. But now David’s coming, it will be a freakfest.

The music mogul tells me he met Keith through his bandmate LIAM HOWLETT. And Liam is a good pal of David’s new bosom buddy LIAM GALLAGHER.

Hey, Sun, you’ve forgotten to include “the guy who saw … PARIS HILTON … blow job …and … BRITNEY SPEARS … ugly pussy” to improve the search ranking.
