If you have two eyes, can read and use google then you could know this in minutes, if not seconds.

And equating those things is just stupid.

Listen to Phaeleh, Burial and Clubroot. Then Skrillex, Borgore and UKF shit.


If you still tell me it's the same you gotta have something with your ears.

I can't even pronounce how "ugh" UKF is and how much disdain I have for their fanbase.

have you even listened?

"brostep"

dubstep

they barely should even be considered the same genre. although there are some producers that show
more clearly how the two are linked.

I think Rusko was really one of those people who brought that sound to prominence before it went out
of control

A friend of mine is a big fan of excision, 3 times that I was in his home it sounded like a hospital full of transformers with a severe dysfunction. The music of Excision sometimes is enjoyable and is catchy but he's not a remarkable act.

Yeah my friend is a huge Excision fan also and he tried to get me into it. I feel the same way as you, some of it is kind of cool, but it can get annoying really quick.

Sleepless is a catchy track. Even X-Rated is cool sometimes.

OK I finally heard the other two tracks, and I still think you guys are overreacting. It's hardly the worst thing he's ever done. I mean, I know the Burial worship and other random shit he does to try to separate himself from the electro/brostep scene is kind of annoying, but this music isn't awful especially by his standards. All songs feel decidedly "average" to me, or else not far below that rank: nothing is offensively bad. The Reason could easily be a (decent) Deadmau5 song. Scary Bolly Dub is like a less horrible version of that "Make it Bun Dem" track, and I kind of like his reworking on the OHMYGOSH drop from whatever song that was, Scary Monsters of something. Still pretty lame though (probably the worst of the three tbh).



Idk, maybe I'm cutting him too much slack, but this EP isn't terrible. 2.5/5 and much, much better than Bangarang. A step in the right direction if you ask me, not that he'll be relevant for that much longer. The samples though, are hilariously transparent and poorly applied.

demigod!

420th comment nice grab

and it's skrillex so obviously people are gonna hate it no matter what...never heard this, but i can't imagine that Burial worship would be any worse than fucking Bun Dem Bender or whatever the hell that was.

well that's just not true at all. Even Deviant. liked his first couple of EPs.

yeah exactly. it still kind of sucks but it's better than the direction he was heading in with that train wreck.

I agree with you, Aids, and actually enjoy some of the music here for what it's worth.

the good:
- burial influence

the bad:
- burial influence

the ugly:
- skrillex is as good of a producer as he is a DJ

Rebut you about what aids? Pretty much everyone agrees that it's bad



Omaha I'm curious as to what you see in this. I mean without the half ass compilation song I could see this being a 2 for me, but no higher than that
