"Watch Out" is a drumstep song by French electronic band Dirtyphonics in collaboration with American DJ Bassnectar with vocals from the Ragga Twins. "Watch Out" was released on 31 March 2017 by independent electronic music label Monstercat.
Background[edit]
Speaking to Billboard Dance about how the track came together, Bassnectar said:
I was playing a show in Paris and hung out in the studio with the Dirtyphonics guys, we had this insane loop going and every time the downbeat synth hit everyone grimaced, but also like a really weird sense of pleasure at the same time. It took us like 89 years to finish cuz we kept making different versions, passing back and forth between half a dozen humans -- glad to see it finally alive and able to fly free into the world!
Dirtyphonics further stated in the same interview that adding the Ragga Twins into the track connected well.[1]
Reception and release[edit]
Alexa Shouneyia, writing for Billboard, said "The quick drums and intense bass paired with Ragga Twins' jungle influence helps this track feel like a summer party."[1] Jeanette Kats of Noiseporn said "With such a dominant combination of power thrown into one track, it could have easily been overdone and disappointing, but 'Watch Out' is a seamless blend of all the artists’ tastes and talents."[2] Harsh Makwana of Bangin Beats said "Juggling the drum beats from dubstep to DnB, 'Watch Out' is sure to keep you on your feet."[3] EDMSauce praised how well Dirtyphonics' drum and bass background blended well with the basslines from Bassnectar.[4]
Drum cover[edit]
On 11 May 2017, a drum cover of "Watch Out" was released to the Monstercat YouTube channel performed by drummer KJ Sawka. Matthew Meadow of YourEDM praised the cover, saying "when you put the talents of a world renowned drummer in the mix, you get something truly special."[5]
