EDIT: EDM in general is becoming more mainstream. I think some of it is that it's easier for people to produce on poor equipment. The recording and production quality has been on a steady decline for years.
Nonsense, EDM has always been mainstream. Trance during the early 2000's, gabber in the 1990's. The mainstream presence of EDM remains constant, the only variable factor is the exact subgenre that is recieving most of the mainstream attention.
It was becoming mainstream, but not nearly like it is now. ~40-50% of today's top 40 could be considered EDM. It wasn't like that in the 90s, or early 2000's. You'd get a few songs here and there, but there's so much of it now.

Does this mean a new netsky album out soon? He is by far my favorite DnB artist, and actually opened me up to other artists and the whole liquid genre I didn't even know existed 2 years ago. I really hope he comes out with more stuff this year. Good find.
Also they use that Unison remix with Knife Party for the movie Red Tails. I don't really watch TV and all I see are commercials with dubstep songs in them, I guess dubstep is going to become more and more mainstream with time.
Sick dubstep track, actually reminded me of hardstyle at a couple points even though I don't listen to that. Regardless still a great track, sounds extra cool if you know the original well too.
Skrillex decides to wear beats in the video, then sees the doors wearing M50's, says 'lemme try those', realize how good they sound and how awful his beats are and decides to start using M50s.

It makes me upset that everything they did was fantastic, and everything he added was terrible. IT MUST BE THE BEATS.
Seriously though. That intro with they keys and guitar is soooo sick...and then just drops off...
One thing I will say regardless of how good the music is...He knows how to put on a show. Listening to it at my desk is a lot less tolerable than at a show where it's loud and you're just rocking out.

im so sick of skrillex. all his stuff sounds the same and there is no sub-bass what-so-ever. Whats the point of a drop if its all mid-bass? and the fact that he uses beats to make his music is laughable, what a joke!
that song had potential with the doors, like morbid said the start was good, rest was just meh...
Really like that new netsky song, thanks morbid, cant wait for more.
also that star wars track was sick! thanks.

You know...(still on the subject of Skrillex) If he could just add a little more sub bass to Breakin' a Sweat it'd be so much better. The sub bass is there...it's just not nearly strong enough (LCD 2). The man knows how to drop like a ******* bomb, and if there was sub bass to match he'd pretty much have my nod of approval. If you actually have the Bangarang EP...Crank up your sub bass EQ and the song is actually a damn good song.
EDIT: Right around 7db boost at 30hz does it good. But 7db is pretty ridiculous to get it in a sweet spot.
I'm not really a fan of harder hitting stuff, so I guess it would make sense for me not to be too fond of Skrillex, but I do enjoy a few of his songs. I guess you could say they stray away from his original "style", but these are the songs of his I enjoy most.
