Skrillex ft. The Doors - Breakn' A Sweat (Remake) ALT DROP TEST

STREAM/BUY: https://hypeddit.com/skybreak/anti-clg

I’ve been meaning to give the Drum & Bass genre a PROPER shot for a while now. I feel like there’s a stigma about Dubstep Artists making DnB since it’s such a vastly different workflow, and I was never confident enough in my technical chops to try to say something meaningful with the genre. But when I started HALF BLOOD, it felt like a good time to strike! I started ANTIMATTER at a time where I was RELIGIOUSLY bumping Noisia, The Caracal Project and Mefjus and this was my attempt at emulating the pocket that they all manage to obtain in every single tune. I bingewatched their tutorials/interviews trying to wrap my head around their music making philosophy.
 
Once the instrumental was done, I knew I wanted the lyrics to say something deeper than the average hype DnB song. It took a few tries to find a lyricist who was down for the extra challenge, but I came across a Brighton-based MC named Purple Velvet Curtains who agreed to work on the record and absolutely nailed it. The two of us resonated on this theme of how the feeling of glory and fame is cyclical - if you're tempted too much by ulterior motives and others perceptions, you lose the plot on why you really do this.

We wrote and recorded the whole topline in an intense six hour studio session in Croydon, London. I’ve been writing poems and song lyrics for my entire life, but had never attempted to write a Rap until this track. It was an extremely refreshing experience getting to collaborate on a new medium and PVC was patient with me throughout the entire process.

Lyrics:
It doesn't really matter
It doesn't really matter
It doesn't really matter
It doesn't really matter

Looking for sanctuary
Somewhere I can't escape from
We've survived for centuries, built off this miscreation
You idolize me, hoping one day I can save 'em
But everything you see is the result of my mistakes, yuh

No exception, I'm reckless in my coping
Pretending I'm invincible, my eyes still hard to open
Taken by the tide, now I'm drowning in the ocean
Thought I'd part the waves like Moses but can't seem to stay afloat
I hope you notice

It doesn't really matter
I find it hard to breathe but still make my city chatter
It doesn't really matter
Carrying this weight to make the world shatter

It doesn't really matter
I find it hard to breathe but still make my city chatter
It doesn't really matter
Carrying this weight to make the world shatter

Don't lose the plot on why you started
Get your mind in order 'cause your dreams are empty-hearted
Passion's turning jaded, thought my outer skin was hardened
But inside I'm feeling faded, we still searching for the answers
Let go of all these motives
Remember your goals
The lonely times on the train when you stared at your phone
Writing poems in your notes, take your eyes off the road
'Cause when nothing really matters, let the bassline roll

We let go
We let go
We let go
We let go

It doesn't really matter
I find it hard to breathe but still make my city chatter
It doesn't really matter
Carrying this weight to make the world shatter

We let go
We let go
We let go
We let go

Skybreak - ANTIMATTER (feat. PVC)

STREAM/BUY: https://hypeddit.com/halfblood

HALF BLOOD was never the album I expected to write. I was in the process of writing the album I thought others wanted from me, but nothing felt genuine. So this kinda started out as a sidequest - my attempt at taking established tropes of UK Bass music and spray painting them with my signature colorful sound design. But it became so much more. This record became a catalyst for rediscovering the roots of the genre. An ode to my heritage, both as a dual citizen of the US and UK and an electronic music fan at large. My bridge between the sounds and aesthetics of New York and London. Most importantly, a diary documenting the mistakes and growing pains of learning to become my most authentic self. I believe this to be my maturest body of work yet and I’m ecstatic to share this with the world.

Skybreak - WORLD'S END (REMEMBER)

hypeddit.com/skybreak/attention I JUST WANT UR ATTENTION

The first non-album single of HALF BLOOD ERA.

Here's a story - recently my phone died while I was on tour (in 2025?? terrifying, I know!) and I went to a coffee shop, gave it to the woman behind the counter and just had to wait until it charged to 40%. For the first time in ages - I was forced to be alone with my thoughts for a whole 20 minutes, with no access to the constant stimulation I'm now so used to. The first time I was truly bored in possibly years. But I remembered how much I missed that silence...  entire album concepts came to me, melodies in my head, old forgotten memories of hikes and mountain views, friends I haven't been good about reaching out to in a while, replaying conversations that reshaped my way of thinking.

This song represents my frustration about the constant war for our attention these days. I remember how much 'silence' and empty space our lives used to have - how dangerous is it that doomscrolling seems to have entirely replaced it??? A society without silence - to reflect, to stop, to breathe is one that quickly loses its critical thinking skills. Now, I'm not about to argue that "SOCIAL MEDIA BAD!" I've met some of my best friends EVER on it and would not have a career without it. In fact, I'd argue Social Media is a necessary evil - ironically, I've fallen in love with content-making nearly as much as music after 2 and a half years of brute forcing it. But sometimes it does feel like the goal of these platforms is to keep us dumb and painfully overstimulated - maybe that's for a reason?

I encourage you to listen to this song (quite a stimulating one if I'm honest) with your fullest ATTENTION, and then take 3 minutes afterwards (roughly the duration of the song) to just sit in silence and see what thoughts come to you. If you're comfortable to, leave them below.
