kinda feel bad for him but this is a lesson to learn, dont keep your most valuable files on a laptop that you are taking around the world without any sort of backup
It was on 2 laptops and 2 hard drives that all got stolen. Now saying that don't keep all your backups in one place, and chuck on of those hard drives in the damn safe and upload project files to a secure online back up service.

Irregardless of his music it is an extremely shit story, whatever it is about laptops failing and losing your work that way; That's your duty to back it up etc but getting it all stolen and knowing that it's still out there is just hateful.

IDK why 'irregardless' annoys me so much, but it does. The fact that spell check does not pick up on it is also a bit grating.

that's the name of skrillex's new album... forthcoming 2013... since he has to remake the whole thing :lol:

you know i was thinking. since this moron gets his stuff stolen like once a year or so... there should be an underground cell that just plans on stealing his shit every so often, just so he always has to start his album over from the start right as he's about to finish it up. do the music world a lot of good.

like you said, as soon as a few dumbasses got a hold of it, they decided that they needed to strip away everything that made it beautiful and just turn it into more of the same old, mindless trash. now the geniuses and innovators such as digital mystikz are thrown to the wayside, while tasteless, immature music from the likes of Doctor P and Skrillex is being revered and worshiped.
- Skrillex is OK - doctor p however is an appalling piece of clubstep bullshit...

yeah exactly... and that facebook poll where skream comes in last... its just...what the fuck is wrong with people?


ulgh i got too drunk tonight... i was on beale street earlier yelling at the evangelicals promoting Jesus to the drunken masses....i just kept going up to these people and saying "stop lying! stop, you heretics! jesus died for your sins! jesus died for you so you need to respect him!"

clearly too much drink.

i might be letting this out of the bag a little too early but i recently heard from a VERY high ranking lizardman that the theft and hard drive failure were staged by skrillex himself. viral marketing and emotional manipulation. he's actually going to fake his own death right before the release of the next album. then release 2 or 3 "post mortem" albums (like 2pac basically) while he gets yet another facial reconstruction and waits for a new hype genre to emerge.
