The Prodigy Named Most Influential Dance Act of All Time

July 12, 2010
The Prodigy Named Most Influential Dance Act of All TimeThe Prodigy have been named the most influential dance act of all time in a new survey.

The electronic trio, who have sold more than 20 million albums worldwide, received 29% of the vote, ahead of French duo Daft Punk, with 13%, and Faithless, with 11%.

The survey, commissioned by GlobalGathering, polled over 2000 festival and club-goers around the UK.

Festival organiser James Algate said: “Dance music is constantly evolving but it’s great to see The Prodigy getting the recognition they so richly deserve.”

The top-5 was completed by New Order (9%) and Orbital (7%), with DJs Carl Cox and Paul Oakenfold also making appearances inside the top-10.

GlobalGathering takes place in Stratford-Upon-Avon from July 30-31, and will be headlined by Faithless and Dizzee Rascal.
