About this sound
A short vocal moment from Skrillex's Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites, often used right before a beat drop, punchline or sudden chaotic reveal.
This clip captures the quick "yes, oh my god" vocal right before the famous drop in Skrillex's Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites. It has that tense, hyped-up feeling of a build reaching its last second, then cutting off just as the energy peaks. Because the phrase is so short and recognizable, it works as a setup sound that tells viewers something big, dumb or dramatic is about to happen.
