It was a light brownish scooter if my memory serves me correct. And no it wasn't good music. It was the prodigy or some other teeny bopper pseudo-breakbeat crap. I remember wishing I had a pellet gun with me.

That's grand, you have your whole life ahead of you. However if you are older It really will depress me. Liam Howlett is a forty-something millionaire living in a mansion in Essex who still thinks he is down with the kids by producing degenerative generic beats that haven't changed in over 10 years (Well they have in a way-they've got a lot worse) Why? Cos since he's wrapped himself up in this safe, grandiose environment he has become devoid of inspiration. What once was an artistic expression based on skewered, urban snippets of disenfranchised youth have become a banal series of lazy attempts at former glories cos all he probably sees now is his butler washing his ferrari through the window which is hardly inspiring. Plus the Prodigy always relied on samples and owe a lot to about a hundred other breakbeat, hardcore and electronic artists that came before them. They were hardly pioneers in their field. And as for those clowns that dance onstage, Hahahahaha. The more I think about it the funnier it seems seeing as I used to lap it up when I was 16.

If this comment somehow makes you think I 'm bitching about how stupid you look then it seems you require a slice of self-confidence. Something our scooter driving friend seems to have in spades

It passes the time. I don't have anonymous voices calling me to bed. God, the spelling arguement is really bottom of the barrel type stuff isn't it? Is it too late to lock the thread?

Even though I would agree with most of what you said, I would like to point out that Liam Howlett is in his 30's, not 40's (he was about 20 when they first his success), and as an electronic artist is probably responsible for much of the course commercial electronic music in the last 15 years, and he deserves credit for that.But yes, he should get rid of those two morons and probably retire at this stage. As for that bell-end on the scooter, why doesn't someone just mail him a link to this thread full of people who think he's a bell-end?

Howlett samples a lot of his stuff especially the beats(breaks) which is of course is very very common, definitely not ground breaking and responsible for what went/is going on in the electronic scene, Jilted generation was a good album and showed potential unfortunately it never materialized after this, those 2 morons(were 3)dancing around on the stage contributed a whole lot to album sales, without them 2 morons the other moron Howlett would be no where near as wealthy as he is now!!! But hey fair play to them, theyare rich and famous iam not so no complaints!
