I can and will pretty much dance to anything and everything, but this is a song that I've been particularly obsessed with lately. I don't like to set expectations for setlists when I go see a DJ spin or a band/musician play, but I went to HARD Summer last weekend already knowing that I would go freaking bananas if Skrillex decided to drop his remix of Benny Benassi's Cinema. He ended up teasing us with the first verse at the beginning of his set, and then closing his set with the full version. Needless to say, I was one happy camper. (And I'm assuming the hundreds of other people with their hands in the air were, too.)
I'm a much larger fan of Skrillex's remix of Cinema than I am of Benassi's own version, partly because I just don't think Benassi's by itself is that catchy or engaging, but mostly because Skrillex takes the song to an entirely different level. If a song could be both beautiful and filthy at the same time, this would be it.
Get up, get down. Lose that sound. D-d-d-d-d-drop the bass.
