Thraed of Skrillex

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?

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

I think he got good when he started producing for other people. I hated when he was making brostep.

he's an amazing house producer imo

his dubstep flavors are also wild as shit and hold up well i think

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.

Also it helped that he was very young when he started.

best thing here is "too bizarre (juked)"

this four-hour b2b set with Fred again.. and Four Tet (shot from behind the decks) is incredibly fun

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.

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

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.

FA has some serious heritage :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Again

no idea re his own stuff.
yet.

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

sorry by his 2020 album i mean 'actual life (april 14-december 17, 2020)' which released in 2021

I dont like fred again creatively at all, it feels very MOR

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

second album is out now

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.

I still haven’t heard them completely but I assume this is more the “pop radio” album?

yeah it is

the garagey half is the better half

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:
