Who needs info about Skrillex? Everybody talks about him and I guess he is a little bit like Beatles was to kids back in the days. He made (or is making) a genre mainstream. He makes girls (and boys) cry and scream only because of appearing. Only difference between them must be that on live sets people used to scream "She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah" and now they are screamin "OMG" or "I want to kill everybody in the world".
Sonny Moore (a.k.a Skrillex) isn't just anyone. He kicked of his carrear in 2004 as a singer / guitar player in the Post-Hardcore band From First To Last. This was at the age of 16. 2007 he had a solo project with main focus on electronic rock. 2008 he created electro / dubstep act Skrillex & was signed to mau5trap (Deadmau5 label). Not too many months ago he started his own production company called OWSLA, which already did several releases including artists like KOAN Sound and Porter Robinson.
Yesterday we could hear a 19 minute mix by Skrillex on BBC Radio I. The mix included a lot of Skrillex songs and remixes. Also included was a few of the new artists on OWSLA. The biggest surprise in the mix must have been the unreleased track Devils Nest that he did together with an artist he already featured in his productions this year, namely 12th Planet (see Needed Change).
This is what the previously unknown track Devils Nest sounds like:
Here is the already mentioned Skrillex mix from BBC Radio I where the song was included:
