The Prodigy – Invaders Must Die
Last week The Prodigy made the title track of their forthcoming new album, 'Invaders Must Die', available to download free from their website, www.theprodigy.com
The song was available to download from 7:30pm November 26 for one week. I hope you all got your hands on this one as it is a little gem and if this is anything to go by the album is looking like it could be a bit special.

What’s all this got to do with mastering well Albums are making a reasurragance aand the trend for Brickwall Limiting seems to be losing ground for more dynamic recordings this will be prevalent on the batch of new albums that are out there and coming through over the next few months check out Guns N' Roses compared to Metallica’s Death Magnetic.
We at Chocolate Factory have always believed in a good balance with our ears falling favourably for more dynamic recordings this is a very good sign of things to come…..
