Skrillex Biography

Sonny Moore, known by his stage name Skrillex, is a Grammy Award-winning record producer, DJ, musician, singer, and songwriter.

Sonny Moore put his gig as post-hardcore frontman behind him in 2008 when he left his band From First to Last and created the dancefloor-oriented project Skrillex. He originally used the name for live DJ sets, but in 2009 the project moved into the studio with Skrillex remixing the likes of Lady Gaga (“Bad Romance”) and Snoop Dogg (“Sensual Seduction”).

In 2010, the self-released digital download EP My Name Is Skrillex appeared, combining the Benny Benassi and Deadmau5 styles of electro with the over the top samples and giant noises of acts like the Chemical Brothers and Fatboy Slim. Skrillex signed with Deadmau5’s Mau5trap label that same year, where he would release his second EP, Scary Monsters & Nice Sprites, along with the club hit “Kill Everybody.”

If topping the club charts didn't prove the producer had arrived, a 2011 appearance on the revived "Beavis & Butthead" television series did, along with his collaboration with the surviving members of The Doors called "Breakin' a Sweat." The recording of the track was captured in the documentary film RE:GENERATION, while the song itself landed on Skrillex's Bangarang EP, which appeared in early 2012.

In March 2014, he released his debut LP Recess after having released numerous EPs.

In 2015, Moore began collaborating with Diplo under the name Jack Ü, releasing their debut studio album together, Skrillex and Diplo Present Jack Ü, in February of that same year. That album went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Album and spawned international hit "Where Are Ü Now" with Justin Bieber.

Skrillex has previously said that The Doors, Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson are all influences of his, as is Daft Punk.
