Skrillex - Radio 1 Essential Mix @ Rockness Festival 18/6/11

[___]

his first dubstep album was archangel by burial.
wat?

I need to stop looking at this guy. With so much talk surrounding him, I keep tricking myself by thinking "Maybe this one will be good. People got to like him for a reason, right?"

I guess it's just not my flavor. But how can tones that hurt the ears be anyone's flavor?

If I would not hear it everywhere this whole high-pitch-wobble-step would sound kinda cool and very original. But not only that the rhythm doesnt not really hook me to dance, every fucking brostep release sounds like a copy of a copy of a copy. Its just like with every kind of pop music, it was copied so many times, that the newest remains to be a mix between Pop and teenage-band Metal on electronical instruments.

It's funny, but the last brostep track I liked was actually a Katy Perry remix (which even those kids hate because of lack of hard drop).

Went downhill pretty fast from here.

and we can blame bar 9 for the yois

Bump for the dub.

wobbles saved my life

Bump for the dub.

It's not who I am underneath, but my actions that define me

irony in its purest form

[j-hilla]

terrible, i cant believe people are still using sweet shop in mixes (remix or not)

also, for anyone on here who may still think he "mixes," someone showed me this the other day. fucking ridiculous, he literally does nothing except light cigs, adjust hair, mash button on trigger finger, crossfade. BOLLOCKS

Really? and whats your opinion of Mary Anne?

also. why dont you come up with your own opinion on Skrillex instead of copying everybody elses. How rediculous is it for you to claim about him when you regurgitate the same rhetoric thats been floating around sin ce his break.


fyi. im not a fan.. but you cant hate on the guy for selling out and being booked at the biggest festivals around the world in his first run. be happy for him man, shit..

edit* i really wish they recorded the bass on this set, truly loses its magic

[-[2]DAY_-]

i can hate on the guy for being as fugly as his wanker friends... for having said wankers up there standing around holding their dicks until the YARRGGHS drop, then attempting to do something sort of like dancing, kinda. and for having a Camel cigarettes product placement in the vid.....

those guys are quintessential grade-A losers. lol

[jakescott]

have been looking for this, muchas gracias!

[say_whut]

yeah yeah you've heard it all before but Skrillex ACTUALLY is dub in it's purest form, Amazon even says so

Could be because it's true. Just sayin'.

[the50calkiller]

It is true. Guy cant mix. Sucks that DJs stopped using records.....I gave up getting upset about it anymore, but when these guys and Ableton I just dont know what to say anymore. Also I would be cool with Skrillex if we just came up with another name for the type of music he makes. It sounds nothing like the dubstep I grew to love, where are the dubs?

Heavy use of NI Reaktor with The Finger.

[agus69]

The sarcasm on this forum makes my penis bounce like when it hears a Skrilly remix


This thread is awsome. made my day, Thank you DSF!

Carry on...

[3point5]

man, people just can't stop talking shit when they don't dig something. just face its not up your alley, and move on. no negativity neccessary....
anyway, never have heard any Skrillex before this, he must be pretty big to be on the Essential Mix... definitely different from most stuff I've heard, then again the chaotic wobbles grate on you after awhile

ahhh.... i'll stick with my BunZero mixes. Gimme cool calm collective anyday over hectic chaotic half noise.

EDIT: ok, im 15 mins into this mix and I cannot stand this shit. what is the hype over ?? sounds like a bunch of retarded animals locked in a room being tortured.

i dont know about you guys but i got to the 4th track and had to bail. this mix was my first time listening to skrillex and his style so i was willing to give it a honest listen.
im not gonna spit hate on the dude but its not my cup of tea. the whole high-pitch-wobble-step vibe kills my ears...i dunno, maybe its cause im in my early 30ies or something.
i actually had to turn it down just to give it a good listen which i rarely do with music.

if u like it good for you cause i dont.
