Good evening people!

Today it’s all about Skrillex. Born Sonny Moore, he’s from Los Angeles and quite young for someone so accomplished. In 2004, when he was still 16, he started playing, recording and touring with post-hardcore band From First to Last. After two highly succesful records and several tours with the band, Moore decided to pursue his solo career.
In 2008 he started producing and performing under the alias Skrillex at clubs in the Los Angeles area and in 2010 he released his Skrillex debut, My Name is Skrillex EP. He also provided programming and vocals for the metalcore band Bring Me the Horizon. Later in the year, he began a nationwide tour with Deadmau5 and released his second EP.
In June 2011, More Monsters and Sprites was released on Beatport.
Skrillex combines electrohouse with dubstep in an ingenius way, with his post-hardcore roots evident in the catchy way he builds his hooks. So, check him out people and stay tuned for more awesome music!
