    HOL! at Paradise Blue played during a rainstorm that forced everyone inside from the pool stage causing absolute chaos. Then he took over the nexus stage inside and proceed to play for about 30 minutes over his set time. I stayed outside during the storm. Once it passed I went back to see the pool stage and got to hear the end of his set from the outside. This was probably the most unique set I have ever experience and will never forget it. Great video btw!

    the distinction between proper dubstep that originated in the UK (and to this day there is so much more of this dark, wobbly stuff around) and riddim/brostep has to be addressed more. I feel like because of the nature of brostep/riddim people hate telling other people that they listen to dubstep because it is associated with riddim/brostep. make dubstep great again

  • @OffTheShelfDJ

    Total trolling from Hebden! My take on it is that it’s a poke at Skrillex’s past love affair with the whole bro-step super aggressive scene. He is having fun and playing genre Frankenstein just like how he is when puts Taylor Swift or Carly Rey Jepsen into his sets

    • @Xmoo123
      @Xmoo123 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I've seen an interview with Fred Again who confirmed this. Is just to troll Skrillex because of his dubstep influence. Lot of people actually think this is a song by Skrillex. So no idea where the story of this video comes from but in my opinion not correct.

    • @ilililililil3776
      @ilililililil3776 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Here is something about Four Tet. He is a monster, a bigmaster and a legend at the same time. In a back to back to back stand up like coachella or the newyork set was, this isnt only about to get the audience fired up, its also about trolling with the other two dj, because they need to figure out how the fuck they will mix down that song and what they put on it next. Just look Skrillex and Fred Again...'s reactions when he is doing that!
