Skrillex

In 2004, as the vocal force behind From First to Last, Skrillex channeled adolescent turmoil into albums "Dear Diary, My Teen Angst Has a Body Count" and "Heroine." Vocal struggles prompted his exit at 18, culminating in his transformation into Skrillex. By 2010, he released "My Name Is Skrillex" for free, revolutionizing his approach to music distribution. The subsequent EP, "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites," catapulted him into the spotlight and earned him three Grammy awards in 2012. Skrillex's collaborative ventures, including Jack Ü with Diplo">Diplo and Dog Blood with Boys Noize, further cemented his place in the music industry.

Skrillex boasts eight Grammy awards, with tracks like the "Cinema" remix and "Where Are Ü Now" achieving international acclaim. His record label OWSLA, launched in 2011, nurtures emerging electronic music talents. Beyond the studio, Skrillex embeds philanthropy into his OWSLA Foundation initiatives. His cultural influence extends to film, with compositions for movies such as "Wreck-It Ralph."

In 2014, Skrillex's "Recess" challenged genre conventions, and his dual 2023 releases maintained the anticipation among fans. His collaboration on Incubus' eighth studio album opened doors to new soundscapes, reflecting his expansive musical talents. Skrillex's personal life, from his relationship with Ellie Goulding to confronting Scientology rumors and managing grief, has been as public as his mental health advocacy.
