knife party

[izotonik]

I loved it for its ambition and some of the slow electro moments were gold

Crush On You made me so sad though, its like they didn't even try to remix it, just threw some presets at it at random intervals :/

Tracks like Doomsday and My Eyes were standout favourites for me

my eyes, yes
on the album..I think they went for something epic, but the result is too dramatic imo.

Most of their stuff on the bonus disc was quite interesting, such as Welcome Reality and Angst. My fave track on that album though is definitely Innocence.

I think they said they wanted it to be some kind of space opera? Anyway, something really generic. Like, something every dubstep producer wants their sound to be. Most of the album has this same dramaticism, which is a bit tiring.

But that's going off topic. What does matter about knife party is not who they collaborate with, but the songs they produce. And so far, I'm pretty much hooked.

Back on topic then, I haven't been able to find a large number of songs by Knife Party (because it seems like they haven't released any) but what JannikR said is exactly how I feel about them.

Well, I guess I gotta throw in my pessimistic cents, and say that I think his music blows. The music Knife Parteh plays is exactly what I expect to hear when hearing a random track at soundcloud that says "dubstep".

Which is a shame, because when I first heard Pendulum in around 2006, I thought the opposite - I thought they were a nice fresh take on drum and bass - whereas here it sounds like they're following rather than leading. Yeah it's polished to a mirror shine but it's still dull. The "Crush on You" remix is pretty sweet though, they did a nice job polishing that turd.
When they've actually released a few songs maybe it'll be more productive to discuss them then. At the moment all we're getting is a few promos and let's face it, I doubt we'd even be talking about them if they weren't already famous.

I think it's great. I feel they are the first producers that are pushing the genre to it's full potential.

i agree though. He doesn't seem to get the hint that he's losing fans and respect because all his tunes are all the same lately. It's like he's afraid of evolving, because he doesn't want to leave the genre that made him successful.

(Backstory: I heard that Bare Noize and 12th Planet sold him those wobbles)

Maybe Bare Noize got to their senses and actually stopped selling them.

Ohyes, i'm sure they did. As the internet is a very reliable gossip source.
