BRAINKILLER FORUM :: View topic - Right In The Dirtchamber (Vol. II)

In 1999, The Prodigy’s Liam Howlett released The Dirtchamber Sessions, a sprawling 50-track DJ mix initially produced for the BBC’s Breezeblock show. Regarded by many as one of the best DJ mixes ever released, Howlett told Big Shot that he’s thinking about releasing the follow-up next year.

“I think there’s a definite demand for people who’d like to hear another one. I really enjoyed doing it, and it came at the right time,” Howlett told us. “It was during the time after Fat of the Land where we had finished touring and I had time on my hands. I think next year would be a good time to put another one out. It all started as a Radio 1 mix for Mary Anne Hobbs. The original version had The beatles’ “Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band,” and we couldn’t get clearance for those tracks. The next one could be interesting.”

Good news. Back in the early 00's I actually thought Dirtchamber Volume 2 would come out in 2009 a full decade later, but we got an album which is better so I ain't complaining! But this does pose the question, what of those 3 or 4 collabs they did before IMD which Liam said will probably come out some time after the album? With Dirtchamber Volume 2 being talked about instead it could mean they'll never see the light of day. I'd love a Dirtchamber Volume 2, but I'd take actual Prodigy tracks over it any day...

Well, he does spend a lot of time actually making music, so I guess mixing it could take a bit less. I think Dirtchamber kicks quite well. Was just listening to it the other day. He did one hell of a job.I dont even care if he fucking cut&paste it, it still sounds great.

I wish Liam's 1991 XL Recordings Rave Mix was released on CD. I love that mix, I think that's my fave of Liam's cut & paste mixes...

Personally i wouldnt call it a DJ mix though, there is no way he did that using decks and a mixer, there is just too much going on too quickly. Im sure it was done with software, which is cool but not a 'DJ' mix.
