^ Yes. The girl on the piano has just got me beside myself.

1 - She listens to Electronic music.
2 - She listens to Dubstep.
3 - She can PLAY THE F*CK out a piano.
4 - She’s HOT/FIT
5 - …nevermind…

I could go on and on, but I might die of depression knowing I’ll never meet a real life girl like that…

:lol:

Well, if you think about it:

They did this cover because it's the only Dubstep tune these girls would only know.

Since they live in the US and study in SoCal, my bet is that they would never do a cover of Ramadanman or Skream because their knowledge of Dubstep usually comes from fellow college kids listening to Skrillex.

I dont get it?! Why is it so surprising that these girls dont know about 2 underground producers from the UK? They are from America, prob are not into dubstep and Skrillex is massive in the US, you'd have to be blind, deaf n dumb not to have heard of him out there! These girls have only done this for promo, why would they do it to a unknown tune? No one would listen to it!

Makes perfect sense to me and happens in commercial pop music every week, girl/boy bands cover countless old famous tracks, why would they cover an old underground tracks no one knew?

Also I gotta say, women doing any music is a MAD turn on for me! Do you think they'd be interested in flying over to the UK to work on a remix lol :D

TBH I think the girl playing the piano is butters but I can only really make the judgement from a staged performance in a YouTube video

Cut the white girl out of the picture and I'd love to see them re-create this:



My most favourite piece of music ever.
