Rick and morty swifty dubstep12/14/2023 ![]() This might be the first episode where the subplot was stronger than the main storyline. Again, there were a lot of great, silly moments on tap this week. And the return of Bird-Person, who is apparently still hooking up with Tammy long after the events of "Ricksy Business." And Rick's snake-making wristwatch. A new pop sensation is born.On the plus side, we got President Keith David busting a groove with Rick and Morty. The only thing that could have made T's role better is if he were actually voiced by Ice-T. The closing scene, where Ice-T evolved into Water-T and waged war against the Numbericons, might be the best post-credits sequence the show has offered. Seeing him kick back, munch Fig Newtons and chill with Rick and Morty was amusing enough, but then came the ridiculously sublime origin story of this immortal water being cursed to wander the galaxy and never care about anything. For one thing, there was the fact that Ice-T was a supporting character. But if the story didn't really come together this week, there were more than enough weird twists and bits of humor to make the overall experience enjoyable. It also didn't help that "Get Schwifty" didn't really have anything new or insightful to add when it comes to poking fun at reality TV culture. The idea that Morty's anxiety was messing with Rick's groove was fine, but the ultimate lesson "Learn to worry less" doesn't really hit home the way a lot of the dramatic resolutions do on this show. Why not just offer a repeat performance of "Get Schwifty" and leave it at that? It was clearly a better song than anything the rest of the galaxy could conjure up. Rick and Morty transitioned from having to save the world through the power of music to, well, having to save the world through the power of music. The problem is that the conflict didn't escalate from there. Instead, that was just the first seven minutes of the episode. Most shows would have been content to stop there, with the heroes rocking out and saving the day. ![]() This episode opened with a giant, floating head arriving on earth, sending civilization into chaos and demanding to be appeased with a catchy pop tune. If you are looking for a Rick and Morty remix that covers all the bases and keeps true to the original content, check out Midnight Tyrannosaurus and Ehide’s “Planet Purge,” before it is purged, that is.Rick and Morty Announcer Pack Comes to Dota 2You really do have to give Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon credit for how far they push their concepts. You see, Rick and Morty are about their hilariously written lines, but each episode has a different deeper theme which ties in the lighter dialogue. Take a listen to Midnight Tyrannosaurus and Ehide’s classic approach to “Planet Purge.” This Rick and Morty Spectacular contains all the traits of not only a good dubstep track, but would definitely gain the approval of its creators by keeping their ear to the television, but also staying connected to the deeper message of the song. The quotes throughout may be relative to “Rick and Morty,” but put the idea of a “purge,” in a comical light as murder is legalized to repress inner anger. Planet Purge, from the perspective of a non-fan of the show, can still be enjoyed with its comical relations to the concept of “purging” that we have experienced in recent years through film and culture. With the track clocking in a little over four-minutes, this lengthens the original sample on his Soundcloud page, but also cements both MT and Ehide as artists who have one ear to the television. “Planet Purge” brings back the dubstep of yonder, to when the “hardness” of a track wasn’t necessarily compromised by mainstream sensibilities that took over the genre in the early 2010s. ![]() ![]() “Planet Purge” stays true to the episode by almost presenting the audio from the show in monologue form, by mixing the music to where it is “just” audible above the chopped and screwed drops. From the beginning, we have an intense leaning toward harder bass sounds, but also a penchant for staying true to the title. ![]()
