New Skrillex Album “Just One Long Drop”

Reports have suggested that the new Skrillex album Recess has shirked any semblance of musical expression to instead feature “just one long drop” that goes on and on over the course of the forty nine minutes of the long player.

The album, the culmination of years of work, has been widely praised as a benchmark in the genre of EDM and it is anticipated that the album will feature heavily at next year’s Grammy’s awards for commercial mundanity.

“It’s the sickest album I’ve ever heard,” gushed one Skrillex fan who admitted to referring to Skrillex as ‘Skrill’ and dressing like his musical idol despite the fact that he’s 29 years old and in legal terms should know better. “It’s starts off with this heavy thudding and clanking bass drop and then just continues on like that until the album ends or you turn it off to avoid the tedium.”

Sources close to Skrillex claim that the idea for the album came about when Skrillex realised that fans of his brand of EDM were mostly concerned with when a track drops and so decided to “give them what they want, literally” by making an album that is just a big drop.

“The tracks, while all being the same sort of indistinct constant bass drone, are in fact ever so slightly different,” continued the fan. “The first track, ‘Drop 1‘, actually isn’t that much of a drop, it’s sort of just an hors d’oeuvre drop in that it opens the palette for the heavier drops towards the final third of the album.”

“It’s like a drop within a drop while it’s dropping,” he added. “Drop-ception.”

So far the album has been receiving airplay across a host of popular stations where it has been described as “largely indistinguishable from everything Skrillex or EDM at large has made in the last three years” and “the pinnacle of musical expression” but has received criticism from some contrary members of the EDM community who have bombarded Skrillex with the questions “Where’s the build up?”.

“It’s honestly so ahead of its time and points to a place in the future where all music will do away with structured anticipation for the drop and just focus solely on the drop,” he concluded. “No one will ever ask ‘where’s the drop’ because the whole spectrum of music will just be drops.”
