toen ik die zag wist ik echt zeker dat the prodigy over hun hoogtepunt was.
die clip is gewoon dom, keith ziet er echt NIET uit met z'n haar.
het nummer is ook maar matig (mijn mening)
ach
het was leuk voor zolang het duurde
Hoezo over hun hoogtepunt heen, de clip was voor een remix niet een Prodigy track. En idd als je haar niet goed zit is het echt gedaan met je carriere, dan maakt het niet uit dat je 5 avonden achter elkaar Brixton Academy uitverkoopt. Als je er afgelopen vrijdag bij was geweest dat weet je zeker dat Prodigy absoluut nog niet over hun hoogtepunt heen is. Volgend jaar nieuw album!
http://www.nekozine.co.uk/prodigy/interviews/band05.htmlNieuw interview met heel veel info over Their Law the singles, de nieuwe tour, nieuw album etc.
Uit het interview:
Neko: You’ve done this video for Voodoo People Pendulum Remix, where you have people blindfolded run around in a forest. Who came out with this idea?
LH: The director.
Neko: Sure you must have had different treatments proposed to you, what made you choose this particular one?
LH: The reason why is the remix has constant movement. And to do a car chase is just dull, it’s really obvious, you know. The original track, Voodoo People, the video we had for that had constant movement, with the slightly naff James Bond rip off we did. We laugh at it now but it’s kind of cool. We had a good time doing it, you know. It was funny watching it.
The idea was to keep the movement there. The idea is actually from a Spanish movie, I can’t remember the name, but it’s from a Spanish film. And it’s pretty straightforward. We were not going to be in it. – but then we had a few stupid cameo roles, you know.
I felt - not uncomfortable – but I felt really kind of detached from that remix, cause it’s got nothing to do with me, know what I mean?
So it’s odd, it felt a bit bizarre being in that video, it’s weird doing a video for a remix of my band.
I wish I’d done the mix. But, I can’t remix my own songs; it’s the fucking hardest thing for me to do. Because the originals are what they are, I can’t do a better mix of it, you know. I can make it sound better – but I can’t make a completely different version of it, it’s the hardest thing, I always come back to what it was. It’s a weird thing for us to be in that video, it’s not something I’d do again.
Neko: And no Motorola sponsorship …
LH: OK, that’s shite, I had to laugh when you said that!
I actually don’t know - I never looked at it that way. The guy just handed me this mobile phone and said “use this!”
Neko: He probably had a deal.
LH: I didn’t get a phone out of it! I’m pure Nokia. But no one can ask me that – that’s insulting, ha ha. No one will sponsor me.
