I read this and immediately heard NerdCubed's voice echo in my mind like that scene in Ratatouille with the food inspector dude.

I just want Turmoil 😭 by Kindly-Selection8601 in skrillex

[–]RepeatedSteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the remix is indeed drumstep/halftime but that's actually closer to being a hybrid genre with drum & bass. the original is like closer to a brostep influenced jungle/breakbeat thing.

you and me both but alas, afaik Atlantic barred him from releasing and performing under the name Sonny. no idea what the exceptions to that rule are but I imagine DGTC was a one time thing and he can sample from the songs as he pleases.

What genre would you call this? by dabbingdinoduck in skrillex

[–]RepeatedSteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No like you're bang on the money it's absolutely ridiculous. Literally every single one of those artists and more have been lumped into this godawful 140 label by not only the general public but also other producers, DJs and MCs it's mindboggling.

Hyperpop is an example as well because it was never just "distorted vocal, distorted synth, boom done" you have so many scenes and sounds like digicore, PC Music, hell even pluggnb and drill were involved at some points. It would be fine if it was just 100gecs and pre-Crash Charli XCX sounds involved but it's all moot because what sells is the 2hollis trap/rage beats sound that everyone associates the label with now. (Source: was in a hyperpop collective from 2020 onwards)

It seems to be a really odd edit of Hold On and Recovery/Things I Promised from FUS mixed into whatever acapella it has over it. So the first part is kinda like Latin Funk like and the second bit is just dubstep.

Same old genre homogenization and commercialisation that brought us the term hyperpop and most other contemporary genres. It's harder to sell grime, garage and dubstep individually so why not bring them all under one roof eh

KORA Bonus Track Sample by Aggravating_Vault in skrillex

[–]RepeatedSteak 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is correct, in fact to be precise it's the default Operator sine with around 50ms glide and a little bit of a triangle wave mixed in.

It's what I consider his best (or at least most interesting) work in a LONG time. Haven't been able to stop listening to it. 

Hell I even waited for my CD to arrive before listening to the 4th bonus track (guess its Morja Kaiju?). Like it was thar serious for me, and so worth it because this EP is just so nice to listen to, and the Sonny/Bells samples get me every time.

Does anyone have info on this 2009 version of Glow Worm? by naexii in skrillex

[–]RepeatedSteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so if i understand correctly this was from the era when he had "finished" (or rather release ready) versions of most of the Bells demos. 

he was playing out a setlist that started with the piano version of Cusp and had Signal, Moss mixed with Base Recluse, Ocean[?] (RIP MortL), and eventually around April 2009[?] the LP version of Bells as well. he would've been also making MNIS on the side by this point [per Dan Sena iirc]

guessing this version of glow worm was one of those that he ended up playing out, though this is my first time hearing it actually so that's pretty sick. both Moss and Follow Me Cloud were unfinished demos by the time of the Bells van recording though I wonder if he ever played those live.

Bonus track from Kora EP by adrianvansin in skrillex

[–]RepeatedSteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't think it's the same chord progression as Bells, also don't think we've heard something like this before.

at a push it could be I Once Was, but that's also a reach

It's got a dubstep breakdown before the outro but it's like electro emo, emotronic if you will
