WHAT'S THAT NOISE. NO. STOP IT.

What starts off as a promising mashup (albeit an overdone idea by the YouTube community) of Deadmau5’s electro house anthem “Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff” and The Beastie Boys’ hip-hop favourite “Intergalactic” is scuppered by a few stand-out flaws in its production.

The premature acapella intro. 

The unexpected loss of the second chorus after it begins to play.

But worst of all?  Anomaly’s horrifying attempt at vinyl scratching the vocals.

The credibility of the whole track is dropped at roughly the same time as Anomaly drops the beat out of sync at 2:02, and then proceeds to brutally rend the BB’s vocals.  As I stare at my screen, utterly dumbfounded at why this is happening, I open up the author comments box inside the video and read the following:

“Anomaly’s first track (Yes I realize that some parts are weird.  Deal with it.)”

What is this, a bloody endurance trial?  How can you expect for people to want to put up with anything they’re listening to?  They’d skip it if they heard it on an iPod, bomb it with zero’s on Metacritic (as is generally their whiny, angst filled way), and bury you in a heap of plastic bottles and other detritus if you ever tried to play it live!
