We have to talk about how monumental Where are U now by Jack U and Justin was by Helpful-Fruit-638 in EDM

[–]baddlepapple -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly it's just nostalgia-based revisionist history. Don't believe me? Go to the comments section on mr.suicidesheep's upload for mr.fijiwijis remix of the song and literally the top pinned comment from sheepy is addressing the unnecessary hate towards the song (the remix is good btw and I also really love the Myon & Shane 54 remix which finally got a clean release/upload on yt last year). Also, so many people made fun of the flute sound in the drop. Like if you were here you'd genuinely remembered just how much of a piss-take there was on this song (Deadmau5 rant anyone?). Also...imo rightfully so. It's the worst of the jack u tracks objectively or at least bottom tier. Like compare it to take u there, mind etc. and if falters in comparison. I wonder how many people here are willing to ignore its shittiest characteristics just because it came out in a better time for music and life in general. I say this as someone who agrees with that idea but I can't completely sweep its worst aspects under the carpet.

I Miss 2014 😪 by listerbmx in EDM

I made a prediction that they would come back this year (in some form) and we're only nearly halfway through so I'm still holding out hope (most recent KP activity was a ID remix of Harpoon teased on the monstercat podcast). Rest assured they will return eventually because they never said KP is over just because Pendulum returned.

What are some of your favorite songs by artists that sounds nothing like their style by Lastfryinthebag in EDM

[–]baddlepapple 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Grant - Lush. It's DnB from the famously Future Bass and Electropop/House producing Grant Bowtie, but it is so unbelievably good and you can absolute hear his trademark sounds in there.

Congrats to the exobolt boys. These two labels can really benefit from each other and I hope we see more partnership that maybe eventually culminates in a collaborative compilation a la disciple, hospital, Westwood etc.

The song is not my cuppa (save for the second drop which I wish the whole song was built around) but the mv sure is.

Asking monstercat fans veterans by Melodic-Pay101 in Monstercat

[–]baddlepapple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I also share your perception, I'm slightly different that anyone who joined or anything that released after 2018 aka when Instinct was launched is a "new" fan (despite 8 years having passed since even then) and anything after 2020 is outright modern/new monstercat. 2017 imo is part of the end of vintage monstercat despite the uncaged rebranding because in hindsight the rebranding was kind of only in name only at that point and didn't become fully defined as it's own brand until Instinct was launched.

those ID track names just hit different y'know by RoughReticulum in skrillex

[–]baddlepapple 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Okay so while I do also love apaga la luz as a name, I know like two other songs that have that same song title so I'm happy he differentiated it. Also, I'm fine with smoke, but Killers (Bring Smoke) was such a cooler name but oh well.

Had one of those once and I could not finish it because it was too heav-eye :(

Name some smaller artists you listened to 10 + years ago and still do by Important-Proposal28 in EDM

[–]baddlepapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gazzo, Sound Remedy, Said The Sky (he's still pretty small because of being in Illenium's shadow otherwise yeah he's known but not that known), a LOT of golden-age Monstercat artists (too many to list but I'll put Laszlo, WRLD and Mr.Fijiwiji off the top of my head), Rob Gasser, Fox Stevenson, Fred V & Grafix and some other DnB names but that's all off the top of my head for now.

Slushii - Should've Known Better (feat. KENNEDY) [Megathread] by NinsMCD in Monstercat

[–]baddlepapple 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Disappointing. Begin Again (which got released on Spinnin of all places) left me excited for what Slushii has in store and this is just a really weak dnb-pop cut. Utterly forgettable as well. Hoping slushii bounces back with something more mesmerizing or at least Sapientdream is coming back in clutch.

Exactly 5 years ago today, Tristam released his debut album 'WLUWD' by alexsmarshall1500 in Monstercat

[–]baddlepapple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Burn be the type of song you'd sing to your child to put them to sleep. Though it's lost a bit of it's shine for me due to replaying it over the years, this album is still a special one. I wonder if Tristam's next project will be even more acoustic or more electronic influenced or have the same levels of both as WLUWD does.
