SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: SKRILLEX & KILL THE NOISE – RECESS REMIXES

Skrillex & Kill The Noise

Recess Remixes
Asylum
RATING

Meh. The remixes were meh. At first, when I saw Fatman Scoop AND Skrillex, I was excited to turn up the volume and just indulge in ear candy. But about 1:37 seconds through the first song, I was thinking, “Wait, what am I listening to? I don’t even know. What is this?” And then by the third track, I didn’t even know I was listening to the third track, I thought it was still the first one. Then I was thinking, “Wait, I don’t even know the song titles.” But nonetheless, every time I zoned back into the music I wished I was at a live show jumping around. The album definitely has a lot of energy and potential, but this is clearly not Skrillex’s, Kill the Noise’s or Fat Man Scoop’s best work. It was boring. There is not a lot to say about the remixes other than, it was… aight, I guess
