Modestep, original monster sound
You know with a original English boy sound

Dangerous, we too hard and heavy fi dem
Dangerous, we too hard and heavy fi dem
Dangerous, we too hard and heavy fi dem
Dangerous, we too hard and heavy fi dem
Dangerous, we too hard and heavy fi dem
Place it down, music it nah stop
Blend up the fire, make the people get rough
We can't let them take it away
Skindred and Modestep are running it all
Moving around like the world in a circle
Body dem a moving around in a circle
Moving around like the world in a circle

Moving around like the world in a circle
Body dem a moving around in a circle
Moving around like the world in a circle
Mash up the place, man, rock up the room
Moving around like the world in a circle

Moving around like the world in a circle

We had to smash up the speakers, man

Turn it up loud in one unity

Moving around like the world in a circle
Body dem a moving around in a circle
Moving around like the world in a circle

@digydigdogdead
modestep got so fucking good. This and machines are the best thing that happened to electronic music in the last couple years since pendulum broke up
@baddong2190
in popular electronic music yeah, but theres some mad shit happening in the psytrance scene in the past decade if you enjoy that side of electronic
@SkaterMisterAxe
Modestep is dead... rip :/
@TeamRobsta
Kickass song by Modestep & Skindred, they should have put this as the last song, the thought of people listening to that last heavy outro and just being left sitting there like "Wtf just happened!?"
@CozyRobinson
unexpected ending. fucking loved it.
@GeoBull
+Kris Mendoza It was the Skindred singer (who is singing through the whole song)
@akscraggy2434
+Kris Mendoza his name is Benji, the lead singer of Skindred. You should check their song, playing with the devil, if you want more electronic music/rock from them. The entire Kill the Power they released in 201(3?) has influences everywhere, but it shines most ok that one.
@moniquet1996
I just listen to that bit 😂😂♥️🤘🏽
