Skrillex Releases New EP

2013-01-03 by Jamatha | 52 Comments
Electronic artist and dubstep whipping boy Skrillex has released a surprising low-key EP, in comparison to his usual efforts, to ring in the new year. The release, entitled Leaving sees the artist attempting to tackle an entirely different sound to that which has made him such a household name.

Skrillex has posted the entirety of the release to his official Youtube channel, which you can check at the link below:

Minimalist? I guess maybe relative to some of his stuff.

this isn't minimalist at all.... i think it's funny that he now realizes his brand of dubstep sucks nards and there is better forms of the music out there, which he will attempt to make

If this EP doesn't make it clear he had ghost producers for Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites than what will!

By 'minimalist' i meant a more sparse production, i didn't want to just go ' a surprising burialalist E.P'

Sad fucking thing is that kids will fall for this shit and think they are listening to something worthwhile or unique. Then listen to the things skirilecks is ripping off of and say its boring.

mad.

I found the song 'Leaving' to be enjoyable enough. I think all this criticism just arises from the connotations associated with Skrillex

Leaving was great, even if it's a Burial ripoff. Rest sucked though.

Straight up Burial worship. Decent, but not much more than "average".

He was the singer of From First to Last for 2 albums, after which he left to pursue an electropop solo career (song examples: turmoil, mora, oceans, father said)...he eventually started djing as skrillex though.

The ONE track that was a burial rip-off is okay. Everything else is just not my bag. This guy gets way more hate than he deserves.
