Listen to deadmau5 and YTCracker’s Hacktivist Anthem, “Antisec”
deadmau5 has joined forces with YTCracker for “Antisec,” a gritty hip-hop and electronic hybrid out now via the former’s mau5trap label. YTCracker is a popular nerdcore rapper and former hacktivist (a portmanteau of “hack” and “activist”) with ties to the notorious hacker group Anonymous. The new track’s title derives from the AntiSec Movement, a cyberspace group opposed to the computer security industry. At the track’s onset, YTCracker kicks the door down and marks his territory: “I’m the de facto leader of a movement / Screaming ‘hack the planet’ back in ’99 / hacktivism in its prime.” From there, his brazen bars run roughshod through a canvas of deadmau5’s heavy-hitting bass and spacey arpegg...
