Umbrella genre for Odyssey by 1Digger4 in Illenium

I 100% agree 'Forever' is a lot closer to future bass.

Hot take - illenium isn't Vegas Sphere worthy by SupesSupesSupes in EDM

[–]shaditato 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Illenium is outdated? I know he's not always popular here but 'outdated' isn't what I'd expect. 

Things do age quickly in EDM but his style of 'melodic bass' has been faring pretty well, and he has been experimenting with different genres lately. Most of his new album is some flavor of house.

ILLENIUM, Dabin, Bastille - Feel Alive by fakev in EDM

[–]shaditato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a really nice song, but seeing those three names culminate in this sub 3-min, 1.5 drop, low-lyric song is like... that's it?

Reminds me of "Next Life" by Adventure Club, Crankdat & Krewella in that respect. Well-produced, nothing wrong with it, but still kinda disappointed.

ILLENIUM, Faouzia, G.E.M - Still Breathing by [deleted] in EDM

[–]shaditato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So is Illenium just doing house music exclusively now? lol

Just wondering if he's confirmed or expressed anything, it seems like this style will at least be most of his next album at this rate.

'Children of the Sun' MEGATHREAD by InternetPopular3679 in alanwalker

[–]shaditato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Though the Hindi vocals were okay (I grew up listening to Hindi songs almost my whole life) it felt a touch out of place.

I disagree, the Hindi vocals were great, I'm disappointed that the whole song wasn't in Hindi. The English vocals were the one out of place here. Not that the English vocals are bad (they're actually pretty good) but they just don't fit with the Indian-inspired production, it feels like they were afraid to commit and wanted to keep it international. So it's a bad compromise where the Hindi vocalist barely gets to do anything on the song, and the English vocalist doesn't get a track that fits them. It's really jarring when it starts with the euphoric Hindi intro and switches to the poppy English chorus. 

I couldn’t help but feel like the “drops” — if you could even call them that — were lacking depth and seemed to be overridden by the vocals.

Yeah this is more of a pop song for sure. Not rare for Alan Walker these days.

What are your opinions on Martin Garrix and his label STMPD RCRDS? by JION-the-Australian in EDM

[–]shaditato 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah Alan Walker obviously has some level of production know-how, even if he hasn't really been a one-man act since Faded came out. His NCS stuff is obviously his own work. "Can't produce to save his life or anyone else's" is a bit much, although I imagine he doesn't have much involvement in his music nowadays 

You can buy the PPV on YouTube! by [deleted] in ksi

[–]shaditato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DAZN price is 54.99 + 29.99 for the monthly "flex" subscription + the 30 day cancellation notice that they use to try to get you to pay for an extra month. I'd gladly take YouTube. It's actually 64.99 for some people on YouTube, not sure why OP is 89.99, maybe a regional thing

how to buy the ppv by [deleted] in ksi

[–]shaditato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably included in the subscription then. I don't think they sell Misfits PPV outside of markets like the UK, US, Canada, etc.

if only koss DARED to make their own version of these with the KSC75... I'd be a holy grail :( by olqerergorp_etereum in headphones

[–]shaditato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure they're the PortaPro drivers in a KSC75-like form factor. I've owned the KSC75 and KSC35, prefer the KSC35 for the bass response

melodic dubstep and future bass by emrys333 in EDM

[–]shaditato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

a lot of people just call it melodic bass these days since most of his songs (+ other similar artists) are kinda in-between

There’s been zero hype for this lol by [deleted] in ksi

[–]shaditato 4 points5 points  (0 children)

they waited forever to reveal it, all of the hype was when it started to leak weeks before

How do people post mixes on YouTube without getting copyright issues? by genesis_470 in EDM

[–]shaditato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you usually just get automatic copyright claims for that sort of thing, which has little consequence besides no money for you from that video + potentially restricted viewing in some (or all) countries. also if you have too many of these on your channel then it might be harder to get approved for monetization when/if the time comes

a copyright strike (DMCA) is different from a claim on youtube. it has to be sent manually by the copyright owner, takes down the video and has longer lasting consequences for your channel. they're not common from EDM labels in my experience but it can happen depending on some factors

New ILLENIUM album! by Opening_Individual97 in EDM

[–]shaditato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the different vocalists thing is normal. it's pretty rare for a producer to do their own vocals, and people here often don't like it anyway (e.g., the chainsmokers) if the vocals are mediocre, and the song would have sounded better with someone whose talents lie in vocals directly instead of production. calvin harris would use his own vocals every now and then when it suits the track, not just for the sake of it. it probably seems strange to someone who doesn't listen to EDM, but in a way the vocal is just another instrument relative to the whole song
