Hilarious Dubstep Remix Of The Week: Sky Ferreira — 'One' (BAR9 mix)

  • August 17, 2010
  • Popjustice

Hello.

So we know dubstep isn't really suppose to be amusing, per se, and we know that knocking out pop remixes for major labels is a good way for The World Of Dubstep to keep its head above water fin­an­cially, but per­func­tory dubstep mixes of pop tunes just seem com­pletely hilarious.

For example, over the last couple of weeks, we've been cheering ourselves up with the BAR9 mix of Sky Ferreira's 'One'. The bit where the marauding dubstep gloom­wobble appears over the horizon at 0:48 is just comedy gold. 

[youtube]0yi6bjVeC2U[/youtube] Dubstep remixes of pop tunes remind us a bit of Johnny Nice Painter from The Fast Show. [youtube]wj84tfS7ag4[/youtube] Readers! Have you spotted an amusing tenuous dubstep remix? Get in touch at the usual address.
