this one's been rumored for a while, initially expected to be the follow-up to Quest for Fire

the reason this might come quite soon - he's on a bit of a surprise tour rn in Germany, last night he hit new cult destination Open Ground in Wuppertal and according to Zoe McPherson who he played on the lineup with he played his new album in full for the crowd

next weekend in Berlin he's throwing a whole festival in collaboration with Berlin Atonal in the iconic Kraftwerk complex, a former powerplant, which is named Contra, in all likelihood confirming the title of the album

I'll be honest I was never even that into Skrillex, but Quest for Fire was good and F*** U Skrillex was actually great and I'm into the character arc from meme and laughing stock to maybe misunderstood pop experimentalist (serving as a major influence on both PC Music and KAVARI) to now clearly wanting to establish himself as a serious artist. he's been working with a lot of great artists, for sure intrigued about this

skrillex really on his 2nd prime right now, what a run

in

soo.. ya boy is gonna be at CONTRA this Sunday 😈

was a tough call bc I already planned a Berlin trip for Friday (but intentionally didn't book train back yet) for another legendary lineup, lots of fam and legends playing w Evian Christ - but I decided I'm just gonna do a recovery day then back to it full overkill yolo

50€ tix is such a steal and I'm way too intrigued just alone for what this lineup

will bring to the massive main stage...

and then there's still like 10 other artists I love playing Tresor and Ohm downstairs lol, def too interesting to pass on. there's a no phone recording policy but will report back, wish me strength for this one lol 🫠

this is the one on Friday bro lol Berlin lineupmaxxing so hard this weekend

F*** it I’ll be there

ayy I'm rly hype for this, ASID's Drowned God event late last year is def up there w my fav club nights ever... and Evian is also behind at least one already

looking back most of these + Bieber memes were so ignorant and dumb lol, rly didn't age well. shoutout to that classic youtube comment tho "my brother was paralyzed from the waist down, but this song made him stand up and turn off the music"

In af

ok I think rollout is officially kicking in, he's just announced as cover star for 032c, interviewed by Ecco2k too 👀 they usually wait a moment before sharing articles online tho, want ppl to buy print..

EDIT: damn they're calling this his "first formal interview in over a decade" ?? that's insane

also more "Skrillex presents" just announced for Primavera Sound, again some v based picks here (Proc Fiskal, Rustie, Brat Star and Avalanches 🔥🔥🔥)

They were made by and for middle schoolers

ill be real i fell for the hate-train with skrillex back then because of groupthink, but over the years i slowly started to warm up on him to the point that now he’s one of my favorite artists, even his old s*** i love now and truly think was innovative for the time

Skrillex x Noah Dillon

gonna be fire

Album def incoming

Gave that Kora EP another couple of spins. I think it's just a bunch of ideas he didn't finish, but I really like it lol

Corny white folks on 4chan and Reddit were really racist and corny. They have corporate jobs and walk among us now

new track "Thistle" w Blawan, Randomer and MC Dricka out now

Is there anything cool happening in Berlin June 13 weekend?
