2012–13: Beginnings Petulla said in an interview that on his 19th birthday, he saved up money to move to
Los Angeles. He would then stay with his friend
Oliver Tree and his girlfriend's dorm-room at
Cal Arts for a few months. He also said that after touring, he planned to work on "getting something like a TV show or a movie going" with Colletti. Petulla first joined Skrillex's OWSLA when he sent his demo before Skrillex heard and told him that he liked it. Petulla then sent another track which is now titled
Head Splitter and Skrillex said, "He wanted it for OWSLA." Petulla said, "We just became friends from there; he introduced me to his team. Now we all work together, and they see what I'm trying to do, which is really cool, because they support it and have the resources to make it happen. Me and Skrillex have a super-similar taste in heavy bass music, so I'll send him new tracks and new artists." Four songs from the EP, includes a collaborations with Algo and Deemed. On November 28, 2015, Petulla returned to Vancouver, BC at Red Room Ultra Bar to perform. In 2015, Petulla released an EP under the alias "Planet Neutral" that showed a reserved, mellow, more relaxed side to himself.
2016: Radical Dude! and Wat the Frick On January 29, 2016, a compilation album titled "Worldwide Broadcast" by OWSLA was released, featuring Petulla's collaboration with
Ghastly titled "666!". On March 11, 2016, Petulla released an EP titled
Radical Dude! with heavy dub, bass-driven, and grimy songs. The first episode was shared on May 24, 2016, which stars Francis, Nick Colletti and Petulla as obnoxious characters who epitomize the dance music stereotypes and every terrible festival fashion. On September 2, 2016, Petulla released his new seven-track EP titled
Wat the Frick via OWSLA. Speaking in an interview about the EP, Petulla said "My main goal for everything is that I want to put out something that everyone will like. Not just a basshead, or a trap dude, or whatever, but I want to have different worlds for each kind of music, so each EP will probably be pretty mixed up". When asked about the difference of the EP and his other EPs, Petulla said "I think the biggest thing is that they're all solo tracks. No collaborations". directed by Liam Underwood The video starts ominously at a burger joint named Grim Jim's, and as soon as the main character finishes his meal, his face dissolves into a cartoon smear of greens and purples. As he makes his way through Los Angeles, he finds the same goo popping up all around him. The songs include "Phantom of tha Opera", "Love Me No More" and "Tourettes Squad".
