Entries in Skrillex (55)
Jack Ü – Take Ü There
Just days after the anouncement that the pair are to play Madison Square Gardens on NYE this year, Skrillex & Diplo have released their first track together as part of new collaborative project Jack Ü. Featuring British singer-songwriter Kiesza on vocals, the track is typically unsubtle with a big moombah inspired bassline designed to send the kind of stadium sized crowds the two EDM stars now attract into complete meltdown. Still, with these two invovled I wouldn't bet against this one making it as a monster hit.
Skrillex - Leaving
Yesterday saw Skrillex surprise fans with the release of the three track 'Leaving EP' via his label, OWSLA's, subscription service; The Nest. The title track 'Leaving' is my favourite of the 3 and something of a relevation as we see Skrillex depart from his Dubstep roots and puruse a more Future Garage-esque sound. You can have a listen to 'Leaving' after the jump and stream the whole EP via Skrillex's YouTube channel right now.
A$AP Rocky - Wild For The Night (Feat. Skrillex)
After causing a storm by wearing a dress on American TV the other night, A$AP Rocky's forthcoming debut album has now leaked, and here is one of the most highly anticipated tracks, which is produced by Dubstep heavyweight Skrillex. Not totally sold, but keep listening - what do you lot think?
Ellie Goulding - Bittersweet (Prod. Skrillex)
Ellie Goulding & Skrillex team up for an enchanting new track called 'Bittersweet', which is set to feature on the forthcoming Twilight movie. Not into the films, but this is a cool piece of music for all music lovers.
MONSTA - Holdin' On (Skrillex & Nero Remix)
Premiered last night as Zane Lowe's Hottest Record In The World, here is Skrillex & Nero's remix of the wonderful debut single from MONSTA. Original is top, but this will take the track up a few notches in the commercial Electronic world. Pre-order HERE.
MONSTA - Holdin' On (Official Video)
Official video for the lead single from MONSTA's forthcoming EP, which is set to be released October 21st on OWSLA. Label boss Skrillex said: "This is not your typical dubstep. A lot of that has already become cliché", and he's right, this is something else - so heavy, yet so soulful.

Skrillex announced for Warehouse Project 2012
Over the past few years Dubstep has gone from an underground English movement, to a genre of music that features regularly in charts all around the world. One man who has been at the forefront of the rise in fame of Dubstep is Skrillex, who has today been announced as the headline act for an exclusive UK date at The Warehouse Project on Thursday 6th December. He is not on tour and wasn't scheduled to be landing in the UK at all this winter, but has decided to come and put the new venue through its paces, literally. He's going to be picking the rest of the line-up, which will be announced soon - for now, tickets go on sale 9am Friday morning.
Skrillex & Damian Marley - Make It Bun Dem (Brodinski x Alvin Risk Remixes)
Set to be released August 28th on OWSLA, here are my two favourite remixes from the remix EP for Skrillex & Damian Marley's huge collaborative single 'Make It Bun Dem'. Brodisnki takes the track down a Tech-House route, but it's Alvin Risk who stands out from the rest, with an outrageous Moombah-influenced bass heavy version that takes you on a 4 minute musical journey.
