Comedian Kyle Gordon's parody song 'Planet of the Bass' has already become an instant classic.

A new parody song making fun of 90s Euro dance music (EDM) has taken the internet by storm.

Comedian Kyle Gordon posted a cheesy music video of an electronica ditty called "Planet of the Bass (feat. DJ Crazy Times & Ms. Biljana Electronica)'" on the social media site X.


Since its posting on July 28, the video racked up over 93.5 million views to date.

The overlaid text in the video read:

"Every European Dance Song in the 1990s.”

It featured a male and female duo singing to a heavily-synthesized track and bopping around the futuristic interior of New York City's Oculus transportation hub.

The clip took aim at the kind of music that was reminiscent of 90s Europop acts, like Aqua and ATB, which tended to focus more on delivering uptempo and hypnotic beats rather than relaying any message of significance in the lyrics.

Poking fun at the lack of substance in the songs from the nostalgic genre, the parody tune included nonsensical lines like:

"When the rhythm is glad, there is nothing to be sad."
"Danger and dance, clapping the hands, when we out in the space, on the planet of the bass.”

You can watch the video here.

Fans of the hilarious track already had their favorite lines.



And even though the song was created purely out of mockery, it was added to the playlist of music lovers.













New fans were obsessed with the video to the point of noticing new details with every repeated viewing.




Much to the delight of fans, Gordon posted a link for the full song presave in the thread.

According to his website, Gordon is a New York-based comedian who has over 3 million followers and almost a billion views across his social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube.

In addition to being a successful content creator online, Gordon has performed live to sold-out crowds across the country.

His work was featured on cable channels including Comedy Central and Adult Swim, as well as publications like Fast Company, Insider, Buzzfeed, Sports Illustrated, and Time Out New York.

Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.

JB Pritzker Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Pushing His GOP Allies To Redistrict—And He's Spot On

Speaking on NBC's Meet the Press, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker perfectly explained why President Donald Trump is pushing for gerrymandered redistricting in Republican-led states amid pushback from Democrats in Texas.

Redistricting has been all over the news cycle in the days since Texas Democrats fled the state to avoid voting on a new heavily-gerrymandered redistricting map and to deny their GOP colleagues a quorum, the minimum number of lawmakers required to conduct legislative business.

MSNBC Fact-Checks Trump In Real Time As He Blatantly Lies About Crime Rates In DC

President Donald Trump is facing criticism after he was fact-checked by MSNBC in real time as he lied about crime statistics while announcing his decision to federalize police in Washington, D.C., and deploy the National Guard in an effort to fight crime.

Trump's announcement is a significant escalation of his previous attacks on the nation's capital, which he has repeatedly referred to as "crime-infested." He claimed in his remarks to the press that D.C. is “one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the world,” a claim at odds with Justice Department data showing that the city’s crime rate hit a 30-year low last year.
