Emerging from the internet yet reigning in hyperspace, Nathan Merrill, who goes by the name Eliminate, is no stranger to stepping outside the perceived box. Known for his inept ability to venture into uncharted territory, the electronic music producer and internet personality has transformed the landscape of both dance music and the internet.
From first breaking into stardom with his 2016 banger Snake Bite VIP to cultivating an online following of 230k YouTube subscribers and 390 TikTok followers, Eliminate has separated himself from the crowd simply by being himself. Whether he’s turning his cat into live visuals for his shows, morphing weird samples into viral beats, or taking fans behind the scenes with his festival blogs, the Los Angeles producer is a true trailblazer. Now, with the release of his debut album, Get Off The Internet, his revolutionary allure has soared to new heights.
Released on Friday, February 2, Get Off The Internet is a wild and unorthodox auditory adventure that’ll leave you immersed in the journey yet gripping your seat, holding on for dear life. From blending a multitude of genres into one sound to rebelling against dance music norms, Eliminate’s latest endeavor is both intoxicating and inspiring.
Get Off The Internet is an immersive sonic adventure.
Spanning 13 tracks, Get Off The Internet is a 43-minute journey into the sonic fabric of Eliminate’s subconscious mind. Through trance-inducing soundscapes, electrifying drops of bass, and tinctures of nostalgia, he channels the mystique of a mind engrossed in the far-out dwellings of the internet, who may or may not be trying to escape. “Hey stupid idiot, get off of the internet,” fussy’s lively voice proclaims on the fifth track, Get Off The Internet, which quickly becomes a recurring voice throughout the record.
Falling in and out of reality, the album explores everything that comes with internet addiction until the protagonist ultimately awakens to his illusion. From the opening track, thinkaboutit, to the closer happyending, Eliminate embarks on a trance-inducing trip filled with twists and turns you won’t see coming.
Eliminate defies genres.
Disregarding any format of traditional dance music and leaning into experimentation, Eliminate is able to create a record that’s both rebellious and revolutionary. Exploring everything from dubstep to hyperpop, hardstyle and pop, he not only showcases versatility as a producer but cultivates a unique sound that can’t be defined nor replicated. From the trap-heavy sounds of EGOTRIP to the vibrant drum and bass beats of heart.exe and the bouncy basslines of SMSOU, Get Off The Internet is an electrifying sonic experience that will leave you in awe.
