The Official Press Release:

With a truly inspired selection encompassing the best of old and new, banging and serene Liam Howlett invites you step in to his world. For an hour or so at least. Its been yet another massive year for the Prodigy releasing Their Law The Singles 1990-2005 in October and their massive UK tour now heading out around the world. Now is your chance to get inside the heart and mind of one of dance music's most pioneering and revered producers. Liam Prodigy invites you back to his.

"I put this record together because its like a photo album to me. 20 years of musical inspiration, memories and good times. Something to keep", Liam Howlett December 2005

Kicking off in explosive style with the exclusive prodigy track 'Wake The Fuck Up', you are left in no doubt as to when this afterhours party starts. Right now. Its a party starter, twisted party starter. Its kind of drum and bass punk rock. Its only gonna be ever available on this record.

"The idea that a Back To Mine compilation should be mellow makes me laugh. Surely the fun begins when you get home! Sometimes it's so good I don't bother going out. Diversity is the key for me, that's just what I'm about."

The beauty of this series of compilations is you get a feel for what's shaped the creative process for the hosts own material. With that in mind, its easy to see why PiL

"This is one of my all time favourite records. It always finds its way on to the decks at some point in the night . Of course I love the Pistols but Lydon proved he was versatile and could move on. It's so uplifting to me but still unhinged . One of the only 1980s pop songs I truly love."

and Meat Beat Manifesto are on there "I remember going out in early 1990 and hearing this song about 10 times before I found out what it was. I'd always ask what the tune was that went "wooo allright!" DJ Hype finally told me when he spun it at Berwick Manor, Essex. It sounded like nothing else being played at the time. It sounded massive, like it was echoing round a big room. Just drums and bass and well ahead of its time. A true warehouse dub classic that inspired me. "

But who'd have thought that the King of Gnarl would have a penchant for Dolly Parton!

"In a time when a lot of modern music is bass obsessed (including me) this record has none! When I played it at a party round mine her voice just sounded so pure that it just soared above everything else. Everybody was asking me what the fuck it was. I said it was just a great record I didnt want to scare them off!"

Genius!
