This is apparently a real tracklisting and not a joke.

The tracklisting reminded me a bit of this actually.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 11 March 2014 22:02 (ten years ago) link
haaaa. I realized at some point the reason I love "Bangarang" is cause it sounds like if Basement Jaxx made brostep.

This reminds me of Basement Jaxx. Like, a lot. It's not a masterpiece, but it's good?

I called it first:
"Bangarang" is awesome cause it works in the same jam-packed maximalist way as Basement Jaxx.― hemioblock (The Reverend), Thursday, January 3, 2013 1:47 PM Bookmark

First track is dogshit, second is actually kind of fun. Fatman Scoop really is the perfect collaborator (okay except maybe Scooter).

is this streaming anywhere besides that dumb app?

So glad that the Fatman Scoop track does include both him shouting for a drop, and a drop

First track is apparantly just edited stuff from his dj-tools. And yeah, I skip it. Second track also has Passion Pit on it. Which is a pretty smart guest, in that he is also a maximalist.
― Frederik B, Friday, 14 March 2014 20:23 (ten years ago) link
Album's pretty good IMO.

at the very least check out "tears" ft. joker & sleepnet

missy track is excellent

no physical options yet !? and yeah, the joker track shakes walls.also, loving the ukg album closer.apparently, this is the first album of two this year ?

I caved in. Ratata and Tears are great!
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 17 February 2023 23:59 (one year ago) link
Afaik there’s a second album coming either tomorrow or next week

I think he got good when he started producing for other people. I hated when he was making brostep.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Saturday, 18 February 2023 03:19 (one year ago) link
he's an amazing house producer imo
― ꙮ (map), Saturday, 18 February 2023 03:23 (one year ago) link
his dubstep flavors are also wild as shit and hold up well i think
― ꙮ (map), Saturday, 18 February 2023 03:24 (one year ago) link
I was mainly speaking when he started, he got good fast he learned and started absorbing a lot of tricks from other producers. He’s highly professional imho.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Saturday, 18 February 2023 03:40 (one year ago) link
Also it helped that he was very young when he started.

this four-hour b2b set with Fred again.. and Four Tet (shot from behind the decks) is incredibly fun
― more crankable (sic), Saturday, 18 February 2023 17:55 (one year ago) link
earlier i saw a clip on twitter of four tet dropping a beast at a random time in his set, and fred again just laughing his socks off while was keiran grinning from ear to ear.i am loving seeing the three of them having an absolute blast together.
― mark e, Saturday, 18 February 2023 18:29 (one year ago) link
i saw someone snark about fred again being a rich twat on twitter but don't know what that's about
if you're in this company i'm not shocked if you're a little rich and twattish sort of comes with the territory afaict
― ꙮ (map), Saturday, 18 February 2023 18:31 (one year ago) link
speaking of fred again, does anyone fuck with his new album? i bought a few tracks but can't say i've cottoned on to them, a little too subdued and saccharine for my needs.
― ꙮ (map), Saturday, 18 February 2023 18:33 (one year ago) link
FA has some serious heritage :

no idea re his own stuff.yet.
― mark e, Saturday, 18 February 2023 18:48 (one year ago) link
i liked fred's 2020 album a good bit more than his recent album, but my fav thing he's ever done is the 'gang' ep he made with headie one
― la vie wokisme (voodoo chili), Saturday, 18 February 2023 18:59 (one year ago) link
sorry by his 2020 album i mean 'actual life (april 14-december 17, 2020)' which released in 2021
― la vie wokisme (voodoo chili), Saturday, 18 February 2023 19:00 (one year ago) link
I dont like fred again creatively at all, it feels very MOR
― xheugy eddy (D-40), Saturday, 18 February 2023 19:12 (one year ago) link
like you know that feeling where you're surrounded by ppl getting something and its not hitting you emotionally at all, but it seems to hit everyone else ? thats how I feel listening to him. like skrillex, even when I was unsure if I totally 'got it' still made me 'feel things'
still the best speaker testing track ever
watch the cones wobble more than ever before

Too much skrillex and I’m too old for it so I’ll have to find a time and mood to listen to this but from what I sampled 3AM sounded good.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 19 February 2023 05:41 (one year ago) link
I still haven’t heard them completely but I assume this is more the “pop radio” album?
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 19 February 2023 05:44 (one year ago) link
yeah it is
the garagey half is the better half
― ufo, Sunday, 19 February 2023 06:12 (one year ago) link
So the algorithm is of course spying on me and recommended me this youtube of skrillex, diplo and bieber breaking down “where are u now” and it’s very interesting, particularly hearing Skrillex’s process:

― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 19 February 2023 18:51 (one year ago) link
second album is very pop, albeit via the skrillex production.i love his garage stuff.also, pretty sure that 'dont get too close' is a take on lil dicky.there is a song in one of the episodes where lil dicky is showing his g/f re autotune/vocals, and its totally the same as this skrillex track.
