If he really was keeping everything in one place then he truly is an idiot. I don't even keep my tune collection in one physical place let alone project files for tunes I'm working on.

it could be argued that it isn't really a remix as it has no resemblance to the original whatsoever after the drop

i'd say he just sampled la roux for the intro and then created a new abomination
you're not wrong, you're just an asshole

In all seriousness though, I wouldn't want that to happen to anyone. The silver lining is of course that it will take longer before everyone goes crazy over "dat new skrillex chuuune!!!!!" again.

What's up with people remixing La Roux as soon as they get cash in their pockets?

Also: "Fuck you you fucking asshole! But no violence!"

The fuck?

This is every producers nightmare. It's unfortunate that he didn't have his material backed up, but it's not difficult to imagine how something like that could happen with his tour schedule.

Don't worry, he'll have those Massive patches re-downloaded and a new 10-track album done in a week.

isn't this like the third time he's screwed up like this?

storage is so cheap nowadays too. they've got hard drives the size of ipods with 1TB storage. I'd have had one of those on my person with all my tunes and project files, one in my bag, one on the person of everyone accompanying me, if i were a touring DJ.

I guess no one sees it coming, even when they saw it happen a couple of months prior

You don't have to like his music, but show some respect. He puts some work into that shit no doubt, saying he has 5-6 sound effects just makes you look ignorant.

He's bald on one side of his head so he's just an idiot. Period.

But I agree, this really is a producer's worst nightmare and I wouldn't wish it upon anyone except Skrillex. I think he deserves it really.
The world really doesn't need another album of him so this is a good thing.
