For obtaining as insanely loud at -5 LUFS, without huge compromises - one must design the song for being loud. It begins in the sound design/selection.

Something to mention, in Skrillex's Mumbai Power video you can see he's using the transparent setting on his bus limiter

If you guys think rumble sounds like skrillex’s best master, it’s because he didn’t master it. Luca pretolesi did. He does all of diplos masters and he did the Jack u album too. I was impressed when I found out skrillex mastered about 70% of his own album. But you can clearly tell Luca is the dude.

That limiter tip has to be one of the best things I've learnt on the internet, kudos brother.

I’ve switched to using fab pro L2/ SIR standard clip for all actual dynamics control, and compression is more for effect/distortion/vibe. Every track has the pro L2 shaving off 3-5 db (sometimes more if it doesn’t need to be dynamic). Really tightened up my mixes and made mastering way easier.

Not adding reverb to everything is a good tip. Takes away from the punchiness, clarity of a sound and you want that contrast. I just love reverb tho lol
