Skrillex is getting bigger and bigger!

[RastaMousey]

What do you guys think to this newly released tune by Dubstep/Electronic artist?

 

[weetsie]

i swear i have heard that pretty lights song in at least 4 remixes now, is there a reason for it? its not like its a new song and its all of a sudden in everything.

skrillex? doesnt do much for me, but probably because im not really into dubstep, recently discovered knife party which is much more to my liking.

lol at the title. Have you seen how small that bloke is.

He is on the BBC Sound of 2012:

That link is a Avicii - Levels remix not really a Skrillex song.

How about this:

Better listened to and not seen. He has a face for music, not video.

 

[Iccz]

I just hope one day he learns how to mix properly...

 

[RastaMousey]

Wow mixed views on him, I think he is the greatest at the moment!

Don't get me wrong I like some of his tracks, but he makes a terrible DJ.
I think there are some better dubstep artists about though, just not got the publicity that Skrillex has - or maybe they're just not as versatile as him.

Got to say dubstep is god awful music,we hosted the backroom at a gig where fakeblood was headlining ,before i went on i popped into the main room ,what an almighty racket....
Managed to persuade my 14 yr old daughter to ditch it in favour of something less commercial..

Depends what you're listening to. Some absolutely amazing Dubstep has been made over the years, but it's the particularly raw and noisy offshoot that has now become massively popular.

Still in awe of Skrillex's production skills, even if I don't like his music much at all. He has become ridiculously huge now, and comes across as a thoroughly decent guy as well, so good luck to him.

Fakeblood is now really that commercial. Listen to I Think I Like It. Its like some 70's roller disco. All you need is some roller boots and away you go. That's some difference to Skrillex. You may even want to listen to these. Some Johnny Cash and various others used in some of the remixes. Fake Blood's sounds on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

I was talking more about the night rather than fakeblood himself,just dont get dubstep at all, i agree those mixes from fakeblood sound rather eclectic and alot better than his early stuff.
The skillrex stuff just sounds like a 2unlimited riff on speed..

Prefered him back when he was in From First to Last.

His Bangarang EP is good and defiantly worth a listen.

He's done a great remix of Cinema by Benny Benassi too -

I'm not convinced with the Korn/Skrillex collaboration stuff yet... maybe it'll grow on me.

Also, I've never quite understood why Skrillex gets all the attention when IMO there's other producers, DJs, etc. who are just as good... possibly just because he looks "individual"?

i like it, been listening to Nero alot recently too and I don't like dubstep!
