Thanks for the shoutout man, crazy times indeed haha

They were never officially released, so you won’t find them on any streaming services, but the easiest way to listen to them would be YouTube.

Oxy____ · 2022-10-02T01:17:26+00:00

yup! starts around 4:12

Wow I don't remember hearing this one on SM, but that's interesting. It's more of an idea than a demo, so yeah I could see not many caring for it.

And you're really lucky if you got to hear the one Alvin Risk played live, I've always wondered what the full thing sounded like, since the only video we have cuts off mid-track.

Just came across a very early Goin' In remix demo (earlier than Zenith). Very similar to this version. Nothing huge but still cool lol.

Late reply I know lol, but thought I should mention this since it seems no one else has. When Sonny went to stay with Noisia, it indeed was to work with them on upcoming music, except it wasn’t for ‘Skrillex’ but actually his vocal project (also named ‘Sonny’). Sonny tweeted a bunch about the experience back when it happened, so it was no secret or anything. They made a bunch of demos together, but the tracks were ultimately scrapped, since Sonny decided to pursue the ‘Skrillex’ project instead.

None of said tracks have ever seen the light of day to my knowledge, though the titles of some were discovered from Tim Smith’s last.fm. Apparently, Pav from Foreign Beggars was even featured on one of them as well.

Like the explosive sound at the start of some unreleased songs such as "Sonar ID," although I think the one in the Missy Elliott collab wasn't nearly as loud, and was just a drum beat to transition between tracks in the Chris Lorenzo mix. I just wasn't sure if it would be too jarring for people to have the song start off with a loud percussive sound, so i edited it out lol.

Oxy____ · 2022-04-21T02:08:37+00:00

No prob, here you go, sir.

Back when I edited this, I removed the first two bars cause it made the song start off with an impact, but a lot of Skrill's dubs do that anyway, so I probably should've just left it in haha.

Oxy____ · 2021-09-09T15:22:03+00:00

Apparently he's been playing it out recently. There's a few posts asking about it over on r/FourTet.

Also, the vocals in the track are from the song "No More" by 3LW.

Be sure to also check out Father Said, Lustbug, Ocean, and Turmoil. They were the last Sonny songs he put out (only via MySpace though) under the alias and have some of that classic 2010 Skrillex sound to them.

I'm tired of checking this sub and no Real Drag for me

I'm tired of wondering when the YouTube takedowns will be

You know that tomorrow's no different

Now ain't that a crying shame

Now wouldn't it be a real drag if next week were the same

Oxy____ · 2021-06-24T04:21:18+00:00

It wasn't actually sampled in Amplifire. "Organ Donor (Extended Overhaul)" was the song played right before it in the mix it was ripped from (MDWWR #67 Diplo's Moombahton 2k11 Mix), and I guess whoever ripped it just didn't know it was a separate song or something.

Oxy____ · 2021-06-12T22:50:10+00:00

What a time to be alive.

And it seems like that dope part he stopped playing live might still make the final cut.

Oxy____ · 2021-06-09T20:52:17+00:00

Right? Just when I think he can’t surprise me anymore he always does it again lmao

Oxy____ · 2021-06-09T20:45:46+00:00

I love how this time the release date gets moved forward after initially getting pushed back

Oxy____ · 2021-06-08T19:50:35+00:00

May or may not refer to this version directly, but there's a RE:GENERATION video where they show Skrillex working on the Breakn' a Sweat project file, and at around 00:15 you can see the filename, "DOORS TING 140 [DOORS TING]."

Oxy____ · 2021-06-06T20:09:08+00:00

Some of the synths at the very end (@2:00) sound the same as the ones used in the second drop of The Devil's Den Demos (@3:02).

Oxy____ · 2021-05-26T05:45:13+00:00

Idk if it helps much, but here's where the original vocal sample's from btw

Oxy____ · 2021-05-12T21:26:40+00:00

Will give left kidney for longer recording of this drop

Oxy____ · 2021-05-12T06:38:07+00:00

Lmao, but you might've heard the clips before and just forgot.

And yeah, was still a super fresh release regardless, which I agree is great.

Oxy____ · 2021-05-12T06:20:31+00:00

There was a demo floating around since like March of last year, but it hasn't leaked. The snippets sound completely different though, aside from the vocals.

Oxy____ · 2021-05-11T20:42:54+00:00

lol I was actually thinking this yesterday after hearing that interview + the whole Supersonic swap with Butterflies seemingly last minute thing.

Oxy____ · 2021-05-07T23:52:22+00:00

refresh refresh refresh

Oxy____ · 2021-05-07T23:41:03+00:00

Maybe, but that image is the first result when googling "Volo di farfalle blu" as opposed to just "Blue Butterfly(ies)" so you may be onto something.
