Keith Flint was a very intelligent, astute, articulate and above all down to earth guy - apart from all his huge creative abilities. RIP Keith - sorry you left us.
dave berry - I knew some people who him ‘back in the day’, and the phrase ‘a really nice guy’ was said many times. It was a testament to his character he never became arrogant or precious.
RIP Keith. You fucking legend. I was heavily involved in the UK rave scene in the early 90s and was so lucky to see Prodigy roughly 15 times. Thanks for making it so special, you are ingrained in an entire generations memories and you will Not be forgotten. I hope you're at peace now, only the good die young.
People dont seem to remember the door staff being a bit more lenient in those days!!! My mates where his og light technicians the stories where ace!!! The shows even better top one nice one the sounds arnt distorted!! If your names not down who has you reported!!!
Keith comes across as a very gentle, thoughtful man - much different than his stage persona. I would like to have met him, have a beer, talk a bit. So sorry he is gone. From a 67-year old who discovered The Prodigy twenty years ago...
I met him at the height of his fame as a nervous 14 year old. He was walking around a music festival, he took the time to sign my shorts, have a laugh with me and he came across as nothing but a thoroughly decent human being.
Started listening to the prodigy because of my parents, mainly my mum when I was about 5 years old. I’m 27 now and still hooked. My mum was devastated when Keith took his own life. And I always said that once I’ve earnt enough money I would buy her and myself and ticket and see the prodigy in concert live that’s always what wanted to do: it’s one of them life goes on! And Keith was the most amazing musician and he’s given me so many memories with my parents I will never forget because of his music with the prodigy.
I love this. I saw a few Prodigy gigs in '97 and '98, I guess you would have been very young, and I just love that their music and the essence of them still shines through the generations.
i was raving with prodigy in 1992 in a south london warehouse pilled up to my eyeballs. I was only 14 at the time and shouldnt of been there but it changed my life. RIP Keith will always love u.
I'd love to sit down with you and have a pint and listen to all the amazing stories you'd probably have experienced I am a decade too young to have partaken in the nineties rave scene unfortunately. I still blame my parents for not getting it on in time
RIP Keith Flint, I’m a 44 year old Raver, I still love the music to this day. I’ve seen the Prodigy live 5 times, definitely the best act I’ve seen live. The first time I saw them live was in 1991 at Shelley’s nightclub in Stoke-on-Trent, it was an amazing night. Rest in Peace Keith, you’re an Icon of our time.
+Steve Atkinson I saw them at the 1st tribal gathering, somebody got on stage and punched him in the face - not sure that's a story he'd enjoy telling ;-)
One of the only musician deaths that I feel has had a big impact on me, so sad, what a lovely bloke and an absolute rave legend. Rave In Peace brother.

R.I.P KEITH FLINT THANKS FOR INSPIRING US RAVERS ALL THESE YEARS SINCE THE DAWN OF THE UNDERGROUND! YOU WERE YOU ARE AND YOU ALWAYS BE AN AMAZING BRILLIANT RAVE PRODIGY !!
I was a metal head who knew all the hip hop of the day too ....EVERYBODY was listening to Prodigy EVERYBODY the jocks Stoners grunge kids even the fucking gothic crowd
10:47 I love how keith pauses for a brief moment and says "multimedia" instead of "social media", no doubt his brain was thinking of encyclopedia encarta '95. This man is the 1990s personified, and a true legend.
This guy basically defined a lot of who I want to be. A free-spirited punk who does wtf he wants! His legend is set in stone. He was the last true face of punk. RIP brother. You are missed.
Excellent video - these guys were like legends, using their music and love of expression to influence and give something to our growth. Growing up with this music and freedom of music, beats, love & dance was wonderful. Sure drugs had and have an impact and like anything else quality and moderation is the key. Things in excess can have a detrimental effect on us just like with money and ego or coffee, cigarettes & alcohol; which are by the way legal yet harmful! As we can clearly see for ourselves in any history book or tv channel, that all throughout time and in a globe full of different cultures; human beings have and still are using various plants, medicines & man made substances to expand conciousness, to explore the inner self and the world around them, to heal and to remove blocks. Music and dance are two of the most important things in our lives and they are to be explored and embraced as a form of healing itself. This is exactly the reason that I am creating my music with an intention of empowerment, motivation & inspiration at this time more than I ever have before. Each song on this album was written for myself but when I first noticed the positive effect my songs had on people I knew that now was the time to make this collection. I loved watching this video because most of the things they said are so true and it was a great memory of a scene that has changed so much. Everything changes that is of course correct but I really wish that we could come back to a way that sees each person showing respect, love and compassion to one another. Please be conscious when you are out in the world. Spitting on the dance floor, dropping your bottles and cigarette butts where you stand, pushing past people and grabbing people is not really what I view as exercising your right to be free and to party. Violence, sexual harassment and rebellious behaviour at the expense of the other human beings around you is not the same as being within your right to have a nice time either. Let us value the work that artists like these did for our culture and remember the reason why we want to be able to enjoy ourselves in this way
I love people talking about the Early Rave scene with such fondness. I left School in 92' And went straight into Pill's and Ratpack, Clarkee and Slipmatt.... Amazing times. I went to a "Rave" a couple of years ago and it was cheese and Chav's. Then i realised although the Music was good in the Old days it was all about the Spirit and lifestyle....
rest in power Keith - thanks for being one of most raw underground figures to ever break through to the mainstream and still stay true, we will always remember you.
Oh man, I was absolutely devastated when I heard the news when Keith had passed. He was such an amazing soul. I saw Prodigy live in the early days and Keith was like a hero to me. I get so painfully said when I hear that people have taken their own lives. We just never know what others are going through. It really hurts my soul. RIP Keith 🙏
@@druidofthefang a lot of my people have never heard of him, hell even the genre, ask any of your black friends and see what they say, come back and tell me I'm right just as u are race shouldn't matter friend, have a great day!!
Really wish this was a podcast, like 2 hours long, really felt inspired by Keith and will always cherish what he did in the 90’s, mixing rave with hip-hop, and punk. Created a completely new energy. Early inspiration for a young raver, from watching the firestarter music video when I was 6, to the warehouse Rave ridden ‘no good’ music video.
The world's gonna miss his wild energy. Genuinely nice guy, no ego, lovely to see tributes from around the world pouring in. Desperately sad he felt he had to end it like this. RIP Keith
I rarely get sad when celebrities die.... but I'm upset over Keith. He was one of us, he had a gift and was a beautiful soul. Stayed rooted and didn't let fame turn him into an arse.
Just LOVE the prodigy and Keith flint !!! My fave act ever. I really miss those rave days and the whole culture of " like minded just out for the music and to be free" attitude! Everybody felt as one , in it together , real good happy days! so far away from the plastic, consumer driven, bullshit, show off, look at my swag, culture of "I got more of everything than you" we got now. Soulless music, zero creativity, everyone hates everyone else. It's the opposite, people go out and hate on each other, drugs now are to get low, not high! Music is beyond mindless shite! No morals, no freedom ,man hope this shitty era passes soon lol
+Josef Mandel I know what you mean. Some ppl openly brag about selling drugs and then immediately leaving. It takes me a lot of willpower to not punch them in the throat. SMH.
If you have ever had the pleasure of watching these people live. From start to finish a true experience. Never again we will see a band quite like the prodigy. Prodigy by name. Prodigy by nature. You are what wet gerny dreams are made of.
I was proud to have been part of the movement, it was underground, a reality that was shared and loved by our group, it was exciting and for me it all began at the eclipse in cov. The prodigy were dancing at raves too then went on to live their dream. RIP keith. X
Nothing will ever happen like that again. I’m just glad I was part of it. Nothing happens in secret any more. Kids would need to leave social media and make the sharing of movements like this more organic. People were experimenting with music because of computers and new technology. It’s limitations made it more creative. Now we have entire studios in a laptop. Feels like so long ago but best time of my life.
edstone147 so true... these social media junkies would never keep the location a secret like we used to, the cops would prob be there before them now lol aaahhh the good old days
It does still happen. There's a thriving free party scene that's more underground in London and the teknivals in Europe. Also, live hardware sets and mixing on vinyl and tunes made not just on a laptop 👍 it's still going... You just have to find the good side of it all amongst a lot of shit.
RUHE IN FRIEDEN KEITH DU BIST VIEL ZU FRUH VON UNS GEGANGEN. DANKE FUR DEINE MUSIK ES WAR DIE MUSIK MEINER JUGEND UND ES WAR GEIL. WIR SEHEN UNS EINES TAGES AUF DER ANDEREN SEITE .
They are so right. I see music as stepping stones, your ears develop as you get old .. I'm definitely down the rabbit hole, no judgement, just enjoy your journey
He will be greatly missed, such a performer. You have brought me and so many friends such great memories with your music. R.i.P and I hope you’re raving in the sky I know what tunes il be listening to today x
Rave + tiny bit Punk + tiny bit of Rock + some HipHop + much (Trance) Techno all of that with sometimes a bit of Reggae? ... Seems "totally insane" (or impossible) yet The Prodigy did it! ... What some people don’t know is that Keith was a truly nice, gentle and polite human being. His stage persona was unique because he channeled his aggression and passion and let all out on stage. He is one of the true greats ... RIP Keith Flint
A genius has left us, a jilted generation without ignitor... Raved onto the Prodigy, SL2 n so on. Am so proud to have lived these ravin' years, fuckin' massive. We'll miss u Mr Keith. RIP bro.
Not the way it is portrayed nowadays. Same goes for Dubstep. When I saw dubstep people usually think Rusko, Skrillex, and other artists that popularized it. When I say dubstep I am talking about actual reggae inspired bass music.
@@chemtrail2269 but what your talking about is called two step which is what reggae bass music is know as.dubstep was created by Benga and skream in a records store in London in the early 2000.reggae has never been known as dubstep
I am so glad to have been a part of this scene. It was truly ground breaking, a new thing, subculture - I like a strong enough vocabulary to describe what it was like. I truly miss it. I found The Prodigy in 1991 and became an addict to their music, always asking DJ's to play them. RIP Keith. You are missed.
Born the last day of 69 enjoyed every minute of those days.. was at the eclipse in Coventry the weekend everybody is in the place, let’s go dropped and Fabio and grooverider played it on repeat.. what a time.. the likes of which we’ll never see again.. god bless you all who know what I mean and god rest your soul flinty.. you were part of the party x
'88 till 93 - 94. Every weekend banging it! Magic times doesn't come close to describe. It was ineffable. Those who were there know. The shadows of the magic remains in the Heavenly music left for posterity.
Oh Keith Flint, you break my heart because you are so honest and authentic and the World FOREVER needs genuine folk like you, but I honour and respect your choices for yourself 🙏 it's JUST so devastating and sad - sleep sweetly you Angel, gone way too soon... Blessed be to You and Your loved ones and kith & kin... Respect always, missed always 🙏💓🌟 the World needs authentically and truth and you shared that without guile in spades! RIP good man 🙏✌️🌻
I immigrated to Australia in 92 form Europe. I start to play semi professional football (soccer). In 95 one night my cousin who was a few years older drove me to practice and was playing ultrasonic obsession in his car. I just feel in love I called him the next day and begged him for the tape so he recoreded the tape and gave it to me. I listened to that tape on my walkman over 1000 times in 96 at the age of 13 attended my first rave. I remember being in line in front a warehouse hearing the music thumping as I walked in felt i like in was in wonderland. My music tastes went from hardcore to pure techno and haven't changed since. Rave scene for me was freedom. At 36 my career/life/ kid is in full effect but after a stressful week i love nothing more than play some techno close my eyes and teleport myself to a warehouse. Rave scene at it's peak was incredible and I'm grateful that I experanced it. RIP KEITH
I am 17 years old and at my dads we would always listen to prodigy music, at his house or in his car. And I’ve always wanted to be able to go to a rave and listen to prodigy live and meet Keith, but now to realize that I won’t ever be able to meet Keith is heart breaking. We lost a legend. R.I.P firestarter forever missed.
Those were the days when you were steaming at 2am and made friends with complete strangers no fear of getting stabbed or acid thrown in your face. Everyone lived for the weekend and we're brought together by the music gos I miss the early 90's. Now I feel like an old man reminising about my teen years. I feel sorry for my 6 year old growing up with shite music and living in a boring world.
music is better now than it's ever been. you're just old and not seeking it out. by your same assessment of today's music, music from the early 90's was Milli Vanilli, Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch, etc ... my point is that radio music has always been shit and was actually shittier in the early 90's than it is now. They weren't playing The Prodigy, Acen, Ellis Dee, E-Type, etc on the radio. SL2 maybe a little, but let's all be honest, On a Ragga Tip was a shit song none of us ever looked forward to hearing at a rave.
Mark Mark I agree. Our children will never experience this sense of 'community' within the raves. As time has gone on the only place close to this is 'gay town' or pride. A total sense of respect and love for one another. And feeling safe on a night out. The real rave scene has disappeared 😔
@@gregj6648 He wasn't just talking about the music but about the experience as a whole. Hard to explain to anyone who wasn't around back then, it was AWESOME.
Keith Flint had such an amazing mind. I really appreciate what he did for UK Hip Hop. I'm so gutted because I feel like the UK had forgotten how much The Prodigy have done for UK music on the whole. We MUST give people their flowers while they're still living, don't wait for them to die before showing your appreciation. Rest in Power Keith Flint, I'm sure many more people will miss you now.
The Prodigy have been apart of so many peoples lives growing up. Memories that positively shaped us. Their awesomeness has never faded and never will. Thank you for being a part of me Keith
One of the only few that managed to take the underground rave scene into the commercial level.. R.I.P Keith 🙏🏻 Prodigy music still lives on, along side many other legends.. Got to big up XL recordings, massive love for this label 👊🏻
Under all that casual relaxed attitude there was a guy suffering....stress and anxiety hide away from all those except the person whose suffering. RIP Keith and thanks for all the vibes !
Keith Flint was a very intelligent, astute, articulate and above all down to earth guy - apart from all his huge creative abilities. RIP Keith - sorry you left us.
Spot on. A more fitting tribute than most.
Very nice person.
Well said

Found the Prodigy when i was 16 yrs old. Im 37 now and still a fan. See you on the other side Keith
Same, but soon i found they are just pro dancers and Howlet is Prodigy

RIP Keith Flint (September 17, 1969 - March 4, 2019), aged 49
You will always be remembered as a legend.
This guy basically defined a lot of who I want to be. A free-spirited punk who does wtf he wants! His legend is set in stone. He was the last true face of punk. RIP brother. You are missed.
Excellent video - these guys were like legends, using their music and love of expression to influence and give something to our growth. Growing up with this music and freedom of music, beats, love & dance was wonderful. Sure drugs had and have an impact and like anything else quality and moderation is the key. Things in excess can have a detrimental effect on us just like with money and ego or coffee, cigarettes & alcohol; which are by the way legal yet harmful! As we can clearly see for ourselves in any history book or tv channel, that all throughout time and in a globe full of different cultures; human beings have and still are using various plants, medicines & man made substances to expand conciousness, to explore the inner self and the world around them, to heal and to remove blocks. Music and dance are two of the most important things in our lives and they are to be explored and embraced as a form of healing itself. This is exactly the reason that I am creating my music with an intention of empowerment, motivation & inspiration at this time more than I ever have before. Each song on this album was written for myself but when I first noticed the positive effect my songs had on people I knew that now was the time to make this collection. I loved watching this video because most of the things they said are so true and it was a great memory of a scene that has changed so much. Everything changes that is of course correct but I really wish that we could come back to a way that sees each person showing respect, love and compassion to one another. Please be conscious when you are out in the world. Spitting on the dance floor, dropping your bottles and cigarette butts where you stand, pushing past people and grabbing people is not really what I view as exercising your right to be free and to party. Violence, sexual harassment and rebellious behaviour at the expense of the other human beings around you is not the same as being within your right to have a nice time either. Let us value the work that artists like these did for our culture and remember the reason why we want to be able to enjoy ourselves in this way
My life would be so dark without The Prodigy! What a legend! :'(
I love people talking about the Early Rave scene with such fondness. I left School in 92' And went straight into Pill's and Ratpack, Clarkee and Slipmatt.... Amazing times. I went to a "Rave" a couple of years ago and it was cheese and Chav's. Then i realised although the Music was good in the Old days it was all about the Spirit and lifestyle....
rest in power Keith - thanks for being one of most raw underground figures to ever break through to the mainstream and still stay true, we will always remember you.
Thanks XL
Thanks The Prodigy experience 1992 for making me a loving Happy grateful lad .
Keith flint RiP (Raving In Paradise)
What beautiful soul...he will be dearly missed
God bless you Keith , you really left your Mark ....... the ultimate “punkin instigator “ 🤘🏽
Very true he was one of the best we will not forget Keith Flint
Oh man, I was absolutely devastated when I heard the news when Keith had passed.
He was such an amazing soul. I saw Prodigy live in the early days and Keith was like a hero to me.
I get so painfully said when I hear that people have taken their own lives. We just never know what others are going through.
It really hurts my soul.
RIP Keith 🙏
Last show this week army of the ants. Tribute for keith just amazing with the ray man. Thx Liam and max. We live forever.
RIP KEITH FLINT!! From a black man from Martinsville, Virginia you'll be missed!!
Music see's no color my brother. Black, white & in between we can unite and dance our lives away. R.I.P Keith !
what does it matter if you are black? :D
@@druidofthefang a lot of my people have never heard of him, hell even the genre, ask any of your black friends and see what they say, come back and tell me I'm right just as u are race shouldn't matter friend, have a great day!!
Vee Aye That’s astonishing. On a UK news channel YT account a guy wrote The Prodigy was quite popular within the Black community (UK or US)
@@davidnavarro4821 cool
They were the days. I have never been happier.
Really wish this was a podcast, like 2 hours long, really felt inspired by Keith and will always cherish what he did in the 90’s, mixing rave with hip-hop, and punk. Created a completely new energy. Early inspiration for a young raver, from watching the firestarter music video when I was 6, to the warehouse Rave ridden ‘no good’ music video.
Prodigy was the idols of my type of people in my generation. Its a worldwide thing! Phenomenon! Huge respect for these guys inspiring generations!
Rest in peace Keith. Your contribution to music will never be forgotten. We miss you!
The world's gonna miss his wild energy. Genuinely nice guy, no ego, lovely to see tributes from around the world pouring in. Desperately sad he felt he had to end it like this. RIP Keith
I rarely get sad when celebrities die.... but I'm upset over Keith. He was one of us, he had a gift and was a beautiful soul. Stayed rooted and didn't let fame turn him into an arse.
I wish the world could of given him as much happiness as he gave it, awesome chap, awesome band - The Prodigy Lives Forever. Rest in Peace Keith.
R.I.P Mr Flint....grew up form day one with the Birth of The Prodigy into the scene....you will be forever missed brother...
Just LOVE the prodigy and Keith flint !!! My fave act ever. I really miss those rave days and the whole culture of " like minded just out for the music and to be free" attitude! Everybody felt as one , in it together , real good happy days! so far away from the plastic, consumer driven, bullshit, show off, look at my swag, culture of "I got more of everything than you" we got now. Soulless music, zero creativity, everyone hates everyone else. It's the opposite, people go out and hate on each other, drugs now are to get low, not high! Music is beyond mindless shite! No morals, no freedom ,man hope this shitty era passes soon lol
+Josef Mandel I know what you mean. Some ppl openly brag about selling drugs and then immediately leaving. It takes me a lot of willpower to not punch them in the throat. SMH.
The air we breathed was different back then,it was filled with electricity,the atmosphere came with a feeling and I'm so lucky we got to experience it
Me too, well put...
+Jazzy more innocent
too right dude. The thing to do now is go to gigs, not clubs.
I love you so much Keith. I'm stunned and speechless. I'll catch you at the next all nighter on the other side, rest easy brother.
Saw Prodigy twice in the 90's and they were incredible...they really did play a rave for 2 hours...RIP Keith
If you have ever had the pleasure of watching these people live. From start to finish a true experience. Never again we will see a band quite like the prodigy. Prodigy by name. Prodigy by nature. You are what wet gerny dreams are made of.
I was proud to have been part of the movement, it was underground, a reality that was shared and loved by our group, it was exciting and for me it all began at the eclipse in cov. The prodigy were dancing at raves too then went on to live their dream. RIP keith. X
Nothing will ever happen like that again. I’m just glad I was part of it. Nothing happens in secret any more. Kids would need to leave social media and make the sharing of movements like this more organic. People were experimenting with music because of computers and new technology. It’s limitations made it more creative. Now we have entire studios in a laptop. Feels like so long ago but best time of my life.
edstone147 so true... these social media junkies would never keep the location a secret like we used to, the cops would prob be there before them now lol aaahhh the good old days
It does still happen. There's a thriving free party scene that's more underground in London and the teknivals in Europe. Also, live hardware sets and mixing on vinyl and tunes made not just on a laptop 👍 it's still going... You just have to find the good side of it all amongst a lot of shit.
So bummed out by the news
RIP Keith Flint! Another legend leaves town
RUHE IN FRIEDEN KEITH DU BIST VIEL ZU FRUH VON UNS GEGANGEN. DANKE FUR DEINE MUSIK ES WAR DIE MUSIK MEINER JUGEND UND ES WAR GEIL. WIR SEHEN UNS EINES TAGES AUF DER ANDEREN SEITE .
They are so right. I see music as stepping stones, your ears develop as you get old .. I'm definitely down the rabbit hole, no judgement, just enjoy your journey
He shaped my childhood in such a major way I’ll never forget that Keith , thank you for all the memories Rave in Peace ✌🏻😥🙏🏼
Will never forget The Prodigy playing Charlie live at the Eclipse back in 91......fucking awesome
The candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long... RIP brother x
I lived through this time...totally amazing..prodigy were so fresh then...so much energy...still luv them today!
Did Essex proud. Dance among the stars, you beautiful man 🐜
He will be greatly missed, such a performer.
You have brought me and so many friends such great memories with your music.
R.i.P and I hope you’re raving in the sky
I know what tunes il be listening to today x
Wow, he looked great in 2014. So sad that he lost it to depression. RIP man!
People can put a smile on through depression. You never really know what's going on in a person's mind. People become experts at putting on the mask.
@@davidhorman5836 You got that right. Damn that's tough.
Maybe he wasn't depressed
His candle burned bright. Lived more than 10 men.
So true.
Prodigy played at the Sands Centre carlisle 91. I was 15 at a rave event, and I still remember to this day rip keith
Rave + tiny bit Punk + tiny bit of Rock + some HipHop + much (Trance) Techno all of that with sometimes a bit of Reggae? ... Seems "totally insane" (or impossible) yet The Prodigy did it! ... What some people don’t know is that Keith was a truly nice, gentle and polite human being. His stage persona was unique because he channeled his aggression and passion and let all out on stage. He is one of the true greats ... RIP Keith Flint
beautifully put
A genius has left us, a jilted generation without ignitor... Raved onto the Prodigy, SL2 n so on. Am so proud to have lived these ravin' years, fuckin' massive. We'll miss u Mr Keith. RIP bro.
These guys have the heart and soul that edm djs are missing
CHEM TRAIL the prodigy is still Edm you know
"Electronic dance music"
Not the way it is portrayed nowadays. Same goes for Dubstep. When I saw dubstep people usually think Rusko, Skrillex, and other artists that popularized it. When I say dubstep I am talking about actual reggae inspired bass music.
Most of them are not dj's, they can't dj and they don't dj live.
Completely true
@@chemtrail2269 but what your talking about is called two step which is what reggae bass music is know as.dubstep was created by Benga and skream in a records store in London in the early 2000.reggae has never been known as dubstep
Rest in peace Keith. I remember the Prodigy and Foo Fighters gig. Stuck with me all these years later. Amazing times.
I am so glad to have been a part of this scene. It was truly ground breaking, a new thing, subculture - I like a strong enough vocabulary to describe what it was like. I truly miss it. I found The Prodigy in 1991 and became an addict to their music, always asking DJ's to play them. RIP Keith. You are missed.
Born the last day of 69 enjoyed every minute of those days.. was at the eclipse in Coventry the weekend everybody is in the place, let’s go dropped and Fabio and grooverider played it on repeat.. what a time.. the likes of which we’ll never see again.. god bless you all who know what I mean and god rest your soul flinty.. you were part of the party x
You'll be missed Keith. Your dancing and vocals will be forever remembered.
Forgot how stunningly beautiful he was . Never forgotten. I hope he has found his peace ☮️ xxxx
'88 till 93 - 94. Every weekend banging it! Magic times doesn't come close to describe. It was ineffable. Those who were there know. The shadows of the magic remains in the Heavenly music left for posterity.
Amen to that brother!
hyped all week , hyped all weekend, locked in your room Sunday afternoon not feeling too great!
Robert Lund Sundays were for, dire train journeys home, bed, cramp and snoring til the evening come. Then a few goes on the SLs
Citronics for me
Beautifully put sir.
Oh Keith Flint, you break my heart because you are so honest and authentic and the World FOREVER needs genuine folk like you, but I honour and respect your choices for yourself 🙏 it's JUST so devastating and sad - sleep sweetly you Angel, gone way too soon... Blessed be to You and Your loved ones and kith & kin... Respect always, missed always 🙏💓🌟 the World needs authentically and truth and you shared that without guile in spades! RIP good man 🙏✌️🌻
I immigrated to Australia in 92 form Europe. I start to play semi professional football (soccer). In 95 one night my cousin who was a few years older drove me to practice and was playing ultrasonic obsession in his car. I just feel in love I called him the next day and begged him for the tape so he recoreded the tape and gave it to me. I listened to that tape on my walkman over 1000 times in 96 at the age of 13 attended my first rave. I remember being in line in front a warehouse hearing the music thumping as I walked in felt i like in was in wonderland. My music tastes went from hardcore to pure techno and haven't changed since. Rave scene for me was freedom. At 36 my career/life/ kid is in full effect but after a stressful week i love nothing more than play some techno close my eyes and teleport myself to a warehouse.
Rave scene at it's peak was incredible and I'm grateful that I experanced it.
RIP KEITH
RiP Keith thanks for some mad times Respect
I say, what a lucid and charismatic young man.
He's always had that star quality. Have you seen any backstage videos? He's genuinely hilarious. Like funnier than a lot of comedians.
RIP Kieth your a true rave legend
Man i just wanna give him the biggest hug.
I used to go xl studios in Wandsworth just to try catch a glimpse of these chaps ..idols
I am 17 years old and at my dads we would always listen to prodigy music, at his house or in his car. And I’ve always wanted to be able to go to a rave and listen to prodigy live and meet Keith, but now to realize that I won’t ever be able to meet Keith is heart breaking. We lost a legend. R.I.P firestarter forever missed.
Those were the days when you were steaming at 2am and made friends with complete strangers no fear of getting stabbed or acid thrown in your face. Everyone lived for the weekend and we're brought together by the music gos I miss the early 90's. Now I feel like an old man reminising about my teen years. I feel sorry for my 6 year old growing up with shite music and living in a boring world.
Hopefully your 6 year old will be educated like my 3 year old and in ten years a revolution will start in feel good music. Let them lead the way.
music is better now than it's ever been. you're just old and not seeking it out. by your same assessment of today's music, music from the early 90's was Milli Vanilli, Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch, etc ... my point is that radio music has always been shit and was actually shittier in the early 90's than it is now. They weren't playing The Prodigy, Acen, Ellis Dee, E-Type, etc on the radio. SL2 maybe a little, but let's all be honest, On a Ragga Tip was a shit song none of us ever looked forward to hearing at a rave.
Mark Mark I agree. Our children will never experience this sense of 'community' within the raves. As time has gone on the only place close to this is 'gay town' or pride. A total sense of respect and love for one another. And feeling safe on a night out. The real rave scene has disappeared 😔
@@gregj6648 He wasn't just talking about the music but about the experience as a whole. Hard to explain to anyone who wasn't around back then, it was AWESOME.
Keith Flint had such an amazing mind. I really appreciate what he did for UK Hip Hop. I'm so gutted because I feel like the UK had forgotten how much The Prodigy have done for UK music on the whole. We MUST give people their flowers while they're still living, don't wait for them to die before showing your appreciation. Rest in Power Keith Flint, I'm sure many more people will miss you now.
The Prodigy paved the way. One love
Ive watched this 3 times in a row.. im delighted to say i have all but one of these tracks.. RIP Keef....
LONG LIVE THE PRODIGY,!!!!!
AMEN TO THE OLD SKOOL,!!!!!!
I would love to have met Keith Flint.
You will always be remembered Keith as one of the most powerful voices in music.
The Prodigy have been apart of so many peoples lives growing up. Memories that positively shaped us. Their awesomeness has never faded and never will. Thank you for being a part of me Keith
Great times, from a 56 year old who found the music i had been waiting for all my earlier life. God bless you Keith Flint.
One of the only few that managed to take the underground rave scene into the commercial level.. R.I.P Keith 🙏🏻
Prodigy music still lives on, along side many other legends..
Got to big up XL recordings, massive love for this label 👊🏻
when i was a kid, i used to be so scared of keith but now he looks like a chill awesome dad with piercings
fox so true
hes so cute
Scared? you fucking mug
Yeah me too When i was like 12

R.I.P Flint! Thanks for your music. Rock on!
Thanks for a video , Keith such a legend. Great interview
Under all that casual relaxed attitude there was a guy suffering....stress and anxiety hide away from all those except the person whose suffering. RIP Keith and thanks for all the vibes !
