what i like about "leaving" (and i do like it, blatant burial jack or not) is that sonny can't do dark or ominous if he tried, so there's this dayglo happy rave optimism to it which is a nice twist to this sound

It's much catchier than Burial, and I sometimes wish Burial was a bit catchier.

It's like the opposite of when Dylan went electric...

i don't think anyone should be worrying that "leaving" is indicative of the general direction he's going into. it's more a diversion than anything i'd imagine

i just like bangarang a lot is all & was hoping for more of the same

"Bangarang" is awesome cause it works in the same jam-packed maximalist way as Basement Jaxx.
― hemioblock (The Reverend), Thursday, 3 January 2013 21:47 (eleven years ago) link
"bangarang" is def pretty cool
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 3 January 2013 21:47 (eleven years ago) link
i mean, for what it is
hmm I guess I will listen to bangarang, but track above is really generic sounding to my ears, like burial, pearson sound or faltydl with preset drums and strings. it should play in the cool teen store at the mall, whatever that is

ZOMBY ® @ZombyMusicNow dont ever mention burial and skrillex in same sentence again 16m

Has Skrillex collaborated with Unicorn Kid yet? Should happen.
― Tim F, Thursday, 3 January 2013 22:02 (eleven years ago) link

this is a compliment right?

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
― Dominique, Thursday, 3 January 2013 22:07 (eleven years ago) link
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

i read this as "it's catchier and has a bigger pop appeal than burial" which isn't good or bad
― bish (bosch), don't kill my vibe (rennavate), Thursday, 3 January 2013 22:07 (eleven years ago) link
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
― Dominique, Thursday, 3 January 2013 22:11 (eleven years ago) link
"leaving" off this is pretty sweet
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 3 January 2013 22:13 (eleven years ago) link
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.

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

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

Am I a disgusting savage for liking the skrillex/a$ap rocky collabo?
― Tim F, Monday, 28 January 2013 06:55 (eleven years ago) link
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
― d'eejban (J0rdan S.), Monday, 28 January 2013 07:07 (eleven years ago) link
I don't like it for ASAP per se. But it makes me imagine many other Skrillex rap tunes.
― Tim F, Monday, 28 January 2013 07:34 (eleven years ago) link
uhhh why's his essential mix kinda on point

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.
