heheheh, have heard this being sampled before. He can eat his own ignorance on a lot of things, yes electronic music is infested with a lot of people who make their own self importance but it does take a lot of imagination and talent to do certain things... for example in the youtube video he mentions "bring back funk and soul", isn't he aware that was the aim of Underground Resistance from Detroit for example? he seems to have completely got the wrong end of the stick on certain faucets of electronic music entirely.

^ exactly - UR and a plethora of other techno and house artists aren't what he speaks of, but shame on him for not knowing otherwise. I'm sure some overrated spoken word novelty comedian calling "punk" shit, based off Hot Topic-y teen bands, yet never heard of Black Flag would piss Rollins off to no end.

Are you suggesting Skrillex is noise? I'm confused

Skrillex is metal. Right?

tangent back to the Korn guy in 3, 2, 1...

i'm one of the main authors of that wiki article and the 'brostep' section caused more arguments than anything in years and years.

i hope this thread gets deleted

Someone's been listening to much of Aaron Funk.

and then decided to poorly imitate that and/or drum and bass. This is so much worse than acrynm and shit.

I think the quality of that Skrillex track should easily redeem Aaron Funk in the eyes of many watmmers.

sonny moore in your punani

That track is not awful. I had never heard it.

Yeah I read the discussion page on that. Also saw the blurb where some not at all relevant metalcore band were cited as being influenced by dubstep with no citation.

I'm pointing out the absurdity of taking offense at being called "punk rock" because "punk rock is atonal", and insisting that your music is somehow a standard above because derp, it's orchestrated. this from a guy who was in a band that owes some to punk rock.

Yeah, it is a very strange reaction to that, but all things considered if Example said anything about anything I had ever done or been near i'd probably hang myself through shame.

The absurd amount of Skrillex content on WATMM constitutes an official subforum, no?

Skrillex, WATMM featured artist.
