SKRILLEX Thread

Is anyone into SKRILLEX's music, or maybe just dubstep in general?

I was introduced to SKRILLEX's song Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites by a friend while on a study field trip out of school, and I gained interest in his music.

SKRILLEX's music mainly consists of all kinds of electronic music, especially dubstep. Many of his songs have very "dirty", deep bass drops that he is well-known for. His current most popular song is Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites with over 7 million hits on YouTube (It doesn't seem like a lot, but it's still going up).

Some of my other favorite SKRILLEX songs include: (Click to View)

SKRILLEX isn't too popular as far as I know, so I hope you can check out his music and post your opnions!

So, no one likes Skrillex here? haha.

If you've never heard any music from him before, he did some remixes to songs, which I think you'll enjoy.

Remix of "In For the Kill" by La Roux

Remix of "Hey Sexy Lady" by i SQUARE

skrillex CUSTOM MADE this for 30 guys from the area i live in. a couple of them even live in the same neighbourhood as me. they paid $15 000 for it (he initially wanted 25 but they negotiated it down)

Quote:Skrillex is having a show in the remote (yet awesome) Northern-European country of Norway in a few days. He’s playing at a concert to celebrate a very Norwegian tradition called being a “russ”. Without going into boring detail, it’s a ton of High School seniors using all their energy and money towards putting together a custom made party bus to party in for all of May. Now, this is a really big thing in Norway. Big enough that it generates enough revenue to make up-and-coming international stars like Skrillex to custom make a theme song for one of the buses. This is where this song is from – the bus called “Disco Rangers”. I couldn’t for the life of me find a picture of the thing. I’ll get back on that. Just to make an example, the bus with the largest budget in 2011 uses roughly 450.000 $

my bus back in '09 cost around $200 000 i thought we were extreme...lol

i saw it when they premiered it live for the first time. carp WAS INSANE, like their soundsystem (or whatever its called) played so loud that you could feel the bass going through your whole body lol

Ahh yes, that's what I heard too. I wonder if he still does such deals...

I really like the song, I'm not sure how others feel about it though, haha.

Skrillex are amazing.
I first heard it being used in a montage on Youtube and it hooked me, haha.

All the songs are pretty good but "Kill EVERYBODY" has to be my favourite.
Btw, dubstep is awesome. ;D

I like Skrillex too. My favourite song by Skrillex is 'Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites'. Anyone know of Cinema? That is another good song. Personally though I prefer Pendulum over Skrillex.

This is rather old news, but Skrillex's new EP is out on both Beatport and iTunes.


The EP comes with 3 new tracks by Skrillex and 4 remixes to his hit "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites". (Click to View)

Some of you might already know this as well, but he also recently uploaded his first music video to his "TheOfficialSkrillex" channel to the track "Rock 'N Roll", as well as a remix (with Nero?) to "Promises". Both are really amazing, you can check them out on the "TheOfficialSkrillex" channel.

I really hope Sonny gets to creating an album for all of his remixes. It seems like they're still really popular, even though he releases songs one by one and not through an album usually.

Please utilize the Dubstep Thread, then, as it is actually being posted in actively, rather than being revived from July.
