Nice to see cartoon Skrillex even smokes. I hope cancer creeps upon him soon.

Not dumb at all, actually scarily plausible

*At the Goldenvoice Executive Board Room - AKA Paul's studio apartment*
Intern: So I kept trying to call Daft Punk's agent, but they said they aren't ready yet.
Tollet shoots the intern in the face.
Intern #2: Sir, I've already spoken with Skrillex's people and they would love to close out the main stage on both Friday, this could definitely help sell out both weekends. He said he'd do it for free if we allow KoRn in the Mojave tent Saturday night any hour time slot from 8pm till the end of the festival.
*Tollet reflects briefly*
Intern #3: And Bassnectar said he would love to play again too! I read it on his twitter!
*Tollet shoots intern #3, while intern #2 shakes with fear.*
Tollet: Skrillex, eh.... Dani, what sayeth "The Board"
*Dani writes the answer on a post-it and passes it to intern #4.
Intern #4 reads the note, slowly: "People will make several threads of distaste, but most likely will still go."
Tollet: Excellent! Skrillex on the main it is, oh and get Datsik to close the Sahara again!

I would read your book on this. Please continue.

I like this 80 page advertisement for Skrillex's massive mainstream recognition.

He is literally the poster boy for EDM in America. Even more so than Deadmau5 maybe now.

Good job everyone for making him a prime choice for festivals to come

Keep this thread going I'm sure Sonny appreciates the free promotion!

^^ Sonny?

[xuclarockerx]

His name is Sonny Moore you son of a bitch

[Jman4321]

why is tokimonsta on the same lineup that skrill is headlining?

Why is fucking Grimes on this lineup?

[heyeric]

^^ Sonny?

mesh knows him...on a first name basis

[greghead]

His name is Sonny Moore you son of a bitch

Dude, really?

[Boourns]

Why is fucking Grimes on this lineup?

All I can figure is they both go to the same hairdresser.

I shudder to imagine the crowd for Tokimonsta and Grimes. "DROP THE BASS AND YOUR TOP! WOOOO!"

[greghead]

I feel bad for Tokimonsta, why is she on the lineup?. I saw her twice in 2010 and she was great. Does she play wobbly-screech music now?

Perhaps Skrillex himself wanted her on the lineup? Despite the shit music he produces, I think he actually has decent musical tastes (he did in fact state that his all-time favorite track is Aphex Twin- Flim)

[jiggly]

i like when djs get asked about their musical influences and they say beethoven, parliament funk and tom petty.

[Mugwog]

Tokimonsta wants to make $$$

Skrillex is Skrilla Dilla - sad but true

[bmack86]

The only two times I've knowingly heard Skrillex were a) briefly seeing some of his set at Coachella 2011. Confused, not entirely disgusted by what I heard and b) the song that Beavis and Butthead make fun of.

So, if I were to listen to Skrillex to determine on my own his relative worth, what should I be listening to?

One of his newest tracks, and one of the least annoying in my opinion:

[Mugwog]

Is nothing sacred Skrillex?!


Edit: And after listening to that - he actually stuck to concepts of dubstep...


MIND=BLOWN

[Zero23]

That's debatable. Sure, he included more of the dub influence, but dubstep will always be more about the sub and space rather than wobbles in my opinion:



That being said, it's good that he didn't resort to the meatgrinder for his newest track.

[Mugwog]

There was a very dubby beat, yes the wobble sound sure, but this is something I would imagine Rusko would do more than Skrilly Dilly

Fuck, I mean - Skrillex had a beat.

I'm figuring Damian Marley made sure it wasn't god awful

Probably this or Scary Sprites & Monsters or some shit.
