Okay so for those of you who don't know, after seeing Deadmau5 live in Boston, which by the way completely blew my mind, I kind of jumped on the mau5wagon and became a follower of this musical genius. And along with my daily checks of his twitter page, Facebook stalking and pretty much anything related to him I stumbled upon a new artist(to me that is) that he is " promoting ". His name is Skrillex. Corey Feldman look alike right? Well anyway, this guy was a front man for a hardcore band "From first to last" for a while and has toured with the likes of other similar bands like Hollywood Undead, and All Time Low. I don't really know those bands at all but in the midst of all that metal-core madness he decided to produce electronic music. I have yet to find a sound and style to his music but it blends some crazy fast "Nintendoish" blip sounds , some heavy wobble and unique vocal samples, some of which sound almost too random. But any-who, I can bet that due to his recent tour appearances with the Mau5 himself will get his name on the big bill venues very soon. Hell, an opening set is already a huuuge step in anyone's career. I foresee that he will begin to create more of his own music rather then being a remix DJ. If I were to sum up his musical direction it would be "deadmau5 on steroids and speed". I leave you with a track that seems to be catching the most attention. I recommend also checking out his remix of La Roux's In for the Kill as well as a track called Make Things for Smile.
