Album Review

One of the few noncompilation rave albums of any worth, Experience balances a supply of top-this siren whistles and chipmunk divas with Liam Howlett's surprising flair for constructing track after track of intense breakbeat techno. Almost every song sounds like a potential chart-topper (circa 1992, of course) while the true singles "Your Love," "Charly," "Music Reach," and "Out of Space" add that extra bit of energy to the fray. More than just a relic of the rave experience, Experience shows the Prodigy near the peak of their game from the get-go.

Customer Reviews

Experience

With little to no introduction into the world of rave and hard techno, i picked up this album at the reccomendation of friend of mine from England. From start to finish, i was blown away. Nowhere else has Liam Howlett maintanted this level of energy and focus for an entire full length CD (though i'd argue that Jilted Generation is different if not better). The first track "Jericho" is all the warm up you'll need for tracks like "Everybody in the Place", "Fire", "Hyperspeed", and "Ruff in the Jungle Business", and there are even a few "slower" tracks thrown in which still maintain the high-energy feel of "Experience". All in all, Experience walks that fine line between cheesy glam techno junk, and musical gold. It serves as both an example of this distinction being made (listen to the first track and you'll know what it is), and of Prodigy becoming the sum of many lesser parts (bells, whistles, high pitched distorted voice samples, sid-vicious-look-alike-MC/dancers, etc), and beginning their path towards commerical sucesses.

Flawless from start to finish

Most techno albums have two or three tracks with enough melody and energy to stand out from the rest of the high pitched filler. Some have none, providing a bland wall of sound with no real character. The Prodigy avoid these traps with an album that is simply a progression of one hard hitting number after another. There are no cracks in the armor, no tracks that can be considered weaker than any other. Taken individually, any one holds its own with the best drum and bass or techno out there. Put together, they form an album that is good enough to be put on repeat and listened to over and over. (For a real thrill, seek out the two disc “Experience Expanded” release with a second disc of remixes and retakes.)

Best Techno Album Ever?

15 years later, I keep rediscvoering this album that I've had since then. It is just amazing. I have had songs from this on my shuffle and before that my portable CD player at the gym for years. You just want move when you hear it. The creativity and now vintage rave sounds are incredible. One of my top 10 favorite albums.

Biography

Formed: 1990 in Braintree, England

Genre: Electronic

Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s

The Prodigy navigated the high wire, balancing artistic merit and mainstream visibility with more flair than any electronica act of the 1990s. Ably defeating the image-unconscious attitude of most electronic artists in favor of a focus on nominal frontman Keith Flint, the group crossed over to the mainstream of pop music with an incendiary live experience that approximated the original atmosphere of the British rave scene even while leaning uncomfortably close to arena rock showmanship and punk theatrics....
