The anatomy of 90’s techno, starring The Prodigy’s “Smack My Bitch Up”

Having listened to this song a multitude of times, it’s really interesting to see someone go in with today’s modern tools and recreate it from the original sample sources upward. Ableton Live is really a fantastic piece of software, and I’m sure the actual process 13 years ago was vastly different.

Personally I’m more a fan of Firestarter, if only for the hilarious parody years later via Venture Bros. (I’ll change my pitch up all I want, but I don’t condone the titular smacking!)

Leif writes words, music, code and bug reports; somehow he's still sane.

Nickherder is a science and engineering kind of guy, but we forgive him for it.

SaRRa is using her fancy university degree to blog.
