  Omen was released in 2009, Out of Space was released in 1992. The bell sound is from the Zero-G Datafile One sample library (track 91), released 1991.

  RIP to Max Romeo. Sadly passed on the 11th April, so a timely video. ✊

  I grew up listening to the Prodigy. Genuinely don&apos;t think Liam Howlett gets the respect he deserves. He is a musical genius and one of a kind. The Prodigy still going strong to this day.

  I find it funny that Keith&apos;s face from their &quot;Firestarter&quot; era is the image of Prodigy that is most recognisable. &nbsp;When I saw them in 93, he had long hair and just danced. &nbsp;My friend who also produces music nudged me and pointed out that there were 3 guys on stage running around making a scene, but the real show was hidden behind a stack of keyboards like the wizard of Oz.

  Amazing that Liam travelled into the future to sample Omen. What a clever guy

  I worked for Liam during this period. <br><br>Blows me away to this day that he did all this on a Roland w30.

  I didn&apos;t realise at the time how special those times were.

  Prodigy back then was almost entirely scrappy sampling, but it worked so well and Liam was such a madman with the edits that it was often difficult even for sampleheads to trace all the bits.

  This Breakdown displays what a genius Liam Howlett really is. &nbsp;Thats hard enough to put together in a modern day DAW like Ableton. &nbsp;imagine doing it on an 5 second Akai sampler with floppy dics etc. having that vision... He&apos;s a genius and is up there with the greatest UK music artists in history.

  Liam is the absolute master of flipping a sample. Experience is by far a show case of Liam at his finest.

  @<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF8QGrCp4e4&amp;t=300">5:00</a> what are you talking about? How&apos;d they sample Omen to make Outta Space... All the time travel comments make sense now.
