I was hoping an officially commissioned remix might have turned up on the streaming sites this week. Releasing the original track one week and then remixes in following weeks seems to be how other artists release tracks these days. I guess no remixes have been commissioned which is a shame. I've not listened to 'Need Some1' very much as I don't want to have played it out by the time the album comes out. I wouldn't have that issue with remixes.

I'm also surprised that no limited 12" (with some remixes), a single sided 7" or promo cd's have been made supporting this release. I hate the digital thing very much.

I presume record companies don't bother with physical promos these days. They'll just send a link of the digital file/s to radio stations, DJs, etc.

The 'Nasty' and 'Wild Frontier' singles didn't get a physical release (apart from on the 'HMV exclusive EP'). The days of physical release singles are more or less over.

The majority consume music via Spotify/iTunes/TIDAL/etc. Physical format music is a niche market now.

In theory an advantage of a digital only release would be you don't have to wait long after creating some music to release it (as no CD or Vinyl needs to be made) but that's not how Liam operates.

Out of interest, Has the live version changed since the single release?

I just came home from FEZEN, Székesfehérvár HU a smaller originally rock festival, where they played NS1 and Resonate no other new song. NS1 was fantastic live and I think the crowd liked the song too but it was short and as if Liam made some little mistake with the fill.

Liam needs to remix it in to something better. I like the track on par with a b-side like Who U Foolin but as a (possible) album opener and single WTF??

Well I have: Nasty 1 track promo single: https://www.discogs.com/The-Prodigy-Nas ... se/6542891 2 Wild Frontier singles, one of them with 4 tracks, and 1 track with edit. https://www.discogs.com/The-Prodigy-Wil ... se/7028864 https://www.discogs.com/The-Prodigy-Wil ... 5966?ev=rr The Day is My Enemy 3 track single https://www.discogs.com/The-Prodigy-The ... ter/790050 Ibiza 2 track https://www.discogs.com/The-Prodigy-Fea ... ter/813884 and the shitty The Night is My Friend EP. So there was physical singles, if you're willing to buy them overpriced, sadly.

By physical release I meant a CD single rather than Promo CDs. Has there been a promo CD for 'Need Some1'? Another 3 years has passed since 'TDIME' so I guess record companies sending out physical promos has reduced in that time.

I'd be very disappointed if we didn't get singles in physical form. Liam said in march (Russian interview) that this isn't going to be like TDIME era, we're going to get physical singles. Fingers crossed.
