Skrillex may have his fair share of critics, but the label he co-owns, OWSLA (it takes its name from Watership Down, bizarrely), has put out a few fine releases over the last couple of years. This track from Italian-born, London-based producer Phonat is one of the best yet.
A snarling yet sophisticated slab of tight two-step, the track is accompanied by some beautifully rendered 3D animations against a stark white background. It’s a bit like being led on a guided tour through an art gallery where the laws of physics go out the window and all the exhibits are thrillingly kinetic. As one adroit Youtube commenter (yes, they apparently do exist) puts it: “press printscreen, get new random kickass wallpaper”. Quite.
