Thraed of Skrillex

most people don't like youth, lex

actually, mall music is something I have enjoyed -- but not really meant as a compliment. generic-ness being the key ingredient to make any music suitable for the mall

sad 4 them

i don't think this track sounds like burial, there's something a bit new agey and ambient and '90s about it rather than ~night bus~ dark, but it is as boring as most burial

it should play in the cool teen store at the mall, whatever that is

i read this as "it's catchier and has a bigger pop appeal than burial" which isn't good or bad

I don't really think that track is "catchy". it's maybe "lighter" than a burial or faltydl track. imo if it wasn't made by skrillex, it would never show up on ilx

"leaving" off this is pretty sweet

It's less of a copy of burial than faltydl (initially) already was, and way less of a copy than that one track on the Royal-T album. On and then like old Pariah tracks and etc. etc. etc. If copying Burial is a crime then Skrillex is gonna be on death row a long time.

ha

there's something a bit new agey and ambient and '90s about it

Yeah, definitely picked it up here too. Rather like it.

he can kick back and skrillax for a while

One of the other tracks has a kind of watery Robert Miles vibe to it as well.

amazing

Am I a disgusting savage for liking the skrillex/a$ap rocky collabo?

it's a pretty decent song but like "fuckin problems" is just asap grafted onto an already existing track... i guess there's virtue in that to some ppl but idk

I don't like it for ASAP per se. But it makes me imagine many other Skrillex rap tunes.

uhhh why's his essential mix kinda on point

lol

:D D D

album in a week, apparently

I like this album.

1. "All Is Fair In Love And Brostep" with Ragga Twins
2. "Recess" with Kill The Noise, Fatman Scoop & Michael Angelakos
3. "Stranger" with KillaGraham from Milo and Otis and Sam Dew
4. "Try It Out (Neon Mix)" with Alvin Risk
5. "Coast Is Clear" with Chance The Rapper & The Social Experiment
6. "Dirty Vibe" with Diplo, G-Dragon from Big Bang & CL from 2NE1
7. "Ragga Bomb" with Ragga Twins
8. "Doompy Poomp"
9. "Fuck That"
10. "Ease My Mind" with Niki & The Dove
11. "Fire Away" with Kid Harpoon

This is apparently a real tracklisting and not a joke.

lol at ragga twins

The tracklisting reminded me a bit of this actually.

haaaa. I realized at some point the reason I love "Bangarang" is cause it sounds like if Basement Jaxx made brostep.

hope track 9 is a Sagat cover

the g dragon track is not working like i want it to

It is for me

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.

Yup, it's very otm.

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

is this streaming anywhere besides that dumb app?

itunes

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.

Album's pretty good IMO.

excellent interview

Mosquitoes don't like Skrillex:

Dieng et al, 2019. The electronic song “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” reduces host attack and mating success in the dengue vector Aedes aegypti. Acta tropica, 194, pp.93-99.

So, new album. Should I ?

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!

Afaik there’s a second album coming either tomorrow or next week

i was so late to the 'skrillex is good' train
