Skrillex - Bangarang EP
 
Bangarang EP:

Bangarang is the fourth EP by American electronic music producer Skrillex. Bangarang has multiple influences of dubstep, electro house and progressive house, while also incorporating elements of trance, drum and bass, rap rock, experimental rock and ska.[5][6] It features syncopated rhythmic build-ups, technical breakdowns and "chopped-up" vocal hooks, as well as multiple vocal samples.

Link

1. Right In
2. Bangarang (feat. Sirah)
3. Breakin’ A Sweat (Skrillex & The Doors)
4. The Devil’s Den (Skrillex & Wolfgang Gartner)
5. Right On Time (Skrillex, 12th Planet & Kill The Noise)
6. Kyoto (feat. Sirah)
7. Summit (feat. Ellie Goulding)

So it's great to have more music by Skrillex. I'm absolutely loving the self title track. I'm impressed with the consistent theme throughout this album, a light electronic dubstep. I like the choppiness of the tracks and the upbeat nastiness from the wobbles. In 'The Devils Den' he zones out with a house sound between grinding scratches.

If you're into heavier and darker dubstep like me, this album isn't for you. This is a beginners dubstep, easy listening tracks. However I personally am enjoying it! 8/10

I prefer "scum-of-the-electronic-music-world-step" when describing this type of dubstep

"I-could-shit-on-a-keyboard-and-create-better-electronic-music-than-that-step" works too

Fair enough, I did nearly win an award for mainstream music :laughing:

I think he's the only popular dubstep I listen to, currently I am obsessed with Liquid Stranger and Flux Pavillion.

Whats the collab with The Doors like?

6/10

Okay, but it PALES and PALES in comparison to Scary Monsters, which in my opinion, was beast in all six tracks. Best song on here is "Right on Time," which is more of a collection of funky beats between Skrill, Kill the Noise and 12th Planet than a song.

I don't listen to dubstep at all, but I know people like Skrillex a lot. People have been saying good things about this album, my younger bro loves this guy and says that this EP does shed a new look on his music. I wouldn't listen to it, but it's nice to hear that it's getting some positive feedback.

Scarlett O'Hara 04-15-2012 07:26 PM

Trust me hun. No one really likes him. He's bro step so hes too mainstream. Luckily I like mainstream so much huh?

Oh I wasn't really judging it by people's taste, I know people who really like him, and people who hate him. Nothing wrong with liking mainstream.

Bangarang
 
Hello! ...

Can I ask you guys a question?

Okay. In Skrillex' Bangarang, at about 2:11, the song calms down a bit and there's a synth/rhythm in the background of the build-up. I've heard this somewhere before. Maybe some late eighties / early nineties (synth)-electronica.

Can any of you help me find this song? I will be very impressed if any of you can find the right song :)

Thanks!

Meh.
 
I enjoyed the EP a lot more when it was first 'leaked', but after purchasing it, it was kind of a let down. I feel like 'Skrillex' doesn't try as hard in his newer tracks just because of his new found fame, but I know he can do better than Bangarang.

Think the Right On Time one sounds fresh,otherwise prefer the older ep's .
