RIP Keith Flint of The Prodigy
Dead of suicide at 49.
I am not an EDM fan (is that how you'd label their music?), but I did like a few of their songs.

Re: RIP Keith Flint of The Prodigy
as an early fan, i was never into their mid-90s MTV-ified 'band phase' with Keith and Maxim becoming lead vocalists - i was hoping rave would live on forever, ahaha.

Re: RIP Keith Flint of The Prodigy
His success was hard won. Having grown up with dyslexia, he dropped out of school aged 15, and worked as a roofer in Essex before joining the Prodigy. He later weathered an addiction to prescription painkillers but became sober, and married Japanese DJ Mayumi Kai in 2006. The couple later separated.
As well as his success with the Prodigy, Flint also founded the successful motorcycle racing outfit Team Traction Control, which made its debut in 2014, and went on to win multiple Supersport TT titles.
