The Latest EDM News From Fuse's Liz Walaszczyk
So much to tell…where to begin!?
Last week I had the great pleasure of attending one of Skrillex's recent intimate Brooklyn shows. It was part of the Skrillex Takeover tour. Experiencing Sonny in a room of that size was definitely intense. He's the man responsible for exposing a new generation of fans to the more aggressive dub step, which is of course wildly popular these days.
He started off the week by playing some tracks from Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites. There’s just such an intense energy to his music. It's pure visceral excitement. There’s nothing subtle about it.
Rumors have been flying around that Skrillex actually showed up to his Wednesday night show at SRB dawning a Deadmau5-esque helmet. The truth is that a fan showed up wearing it. During his set, after giving the fan a few shout outs, Skrillex did end up putting it on himself. But it was a total impromptu thing, definitely not a premeditated plan on the part of Sonny. Check it out.
