Just got back from a Skrillex show..

Awesome stuff.
was in Palm Springs, CA.
I’m like seriously down the street.
he was a really good sport about dealing with crazy fans like me.
I got Pictures, video, and he signed my shirt, front row…
awesome night.

good to see there’s still artists that don’t let fame get to their heads

lets see some pics and vids bro!

His interview on Beatportal was pretty good. Seems like a pretty level headed guy.

wasnt he front man of a rock band, im pretty sure he’s used to groupies and fans, he’s pretty creative though i must say

Yes

Agreed. Luv “weekends”…

Show us pics dude! :slight_smile:

Agreed, need pics!

Yeah, I recently saw him open for deadmau5. Never heard of the guy till that night. He has some great stuff out. Some of his songs seem a little too busy for my taste (mostly his lady gaga edits) but I love his “In for the kill” edit. Pretty sure he’s an Ableton dj

Yeah he uses Ableton, just like Deadmau5. I’ve seen one of his sets, where he never used headphnes, not even once!

Yeah I noticed that! He jumped around more then standing in front of his gear. Which is good in some ways I guess, but his set is so automated he doesn’t need headphones!
But I’m sure he doesn’t consider himself a “dj” (like deadmau5) so technically he shouldn’t get any shit for that

I will be posting pics and vids Very soon!
i was right in front of him the whole night and i actually went on stage next him a couple times but he didnt care.
but yes, ableton no headphones.
either way i dont care what a performer uses as long as they rock the house!

i love skrillex for the fact he did the monsters e.p with just a trackpad(mouse)
and all he uses live is a m audio trigger finger,

the guy bought a round of shots for my whole crew. very humble dude from what they told me.

music comes from within :slight_smile: the medium which it is transcribed is meaningless.

great musician, really all over the place with his stuff. i like that.

lolz, couldn’t help but think of this SICK old school track! (I skipped the intro… and in fact the first half of the song to make the point a bit clearer lol)

Wake me up when the fad is over, sorry to rain on the parade, but his music is junk…

I love Dubstep. But. I agree with this. He’s being carried by the mau5 train. And while a couple tunes are decent, there are MUCH bigger talents out there.

That being said, for being a stand up guy, I can applaud anyone for that.

You didn’t hear about his self released album that got hundreds of thousands of downloads then, before he even met deadmau5? There’s no accounting for taste, but the guy has a talent.

What’s more, I love dubstep is fine to say, but there’s such a variety of 140bpm music out there. It’s like the difference between liquid and jump up D&B, some like one and some like the other.

no need to hate just because its not your taste. just sayin.
