Italian DJ pranksters, DJs From Mars, are back at it again with their latest single, Phat Ass Drop (How To Produce A Club Track Today).
In a world where anyone can download music production software and proclaim themselves a DJ, and so called top-talent mixers seem to rely more on formulas and computers than real creativity, the stage has been set for a little criticism. Enter DJs From Mars with Phat Ass Drop: a fun electrohouse club track that also serves as a tongue in cheek how to instructional video and a satirical critique of current state of EDM.
The track starts off with an electronic voice saying, "How to produce a club track today. Just follow the instructions and youll be an electronic music producer in no time." The song continues with step-by-step instructions, demonstrating every cliché of big room club tracks (military drums, random loop, claps, crash).
The music video for the song adds a very clever visual element. Chock-full of inside jokes and references, Phat Ass Drop is a must-watch treat for DJs, web nerds and productions freaks.
