So, what do we do with Skrillex? Six months ago, nobody cared about this project of the former singer of some US metal band, but this first album is making a splash that only support from a major can explain (thanks to Deadmau5's success, as this guy signed Skrillex on his label). UK-imported filthy dubstep meets French Touch 2.0 fidget with a more than decent production and a far from negligible amoung of Ibiza cheese. The result is super catchy, has a big, fat sound, and goes straight to the feets from the first listen, but dims out pretty quickly afterward (with the exception of the Noisia and Foreign Beggars remixes). So, is Skrillex's tapping into trends fun and efficient? It is. Is it doing what Rusko & co are trying to achieve? Yes. Is it bringing anything new to the table? No. This thing is probably going to get considerable play right now, but I doubt that it will leave a lasting impression. And on a side-note, I didn't check if the artwork was done by the same person who designed the Rottun covers, but this kind of Transformers-remake horror is making me wants to pluck my eyes out.
