      Highly disagree. He may be the biggest but definitely not the best. A lot of his stuff is very repetitive and boring imo. AU5 is the best melodic EDM producer imo in terms of sound design and composition.

      I can definitely say the metal + edm thing has been going on for a little while, though most of it was from like two guys, PhaseOne and Sullivan King. That is unless you count all of deathstep since it's basically just death metal/deathcore influenced brostep, but I don't usually hear guitars or screaming, or see features from those kind of bands.

    I've been a bit of an EDM fan for almost 10 years at this point though it's mostly been dubstep that I've liked over the years with some other music sprinkled in, though since around 2019 to now I don't find most of it to be very good, those damn French! I've personally never been much into melodic dubstep unless it has some kind of bite to at as well like what Au5 does or one of Illenium's older collabs with Excision called Gold (Stupid Love). Speaking of Excision and collabs with Illenium, they also worked with I Prevail a couple years ago which I thought was cool when I heard about but I don't find the track to be very good (which makes sense, since it was released in 2020, after the riddim takeover ruined everything) and it'd probably be unlistenable without any kind of vocals, let alone I Prevail's.
    Back when I was really into it though, I remember Excision, PhaseOne and Sullivan King being among my favorites with two out of three being clearly influenced by metalcore. And it was by then I realized that those two genres are like a match made in heaven. Hell, PhaseOne also has features from a ton of metalcore bands like In Hearts Wake and Northlane who are fellow Aussie boys, Crystal Lake, Periphery, Sleep Waker and the deathcore band Thy Art Is Murder. Meanwhile Sullivan King just kinda screams like a metalcore vocalist and sounds like an American Matt Tuck when singing.

    • @Balistiko
