Why does Skrillex have tits?

[–]psytrancedsquid 53 points54 points ago

They are not tits, they are bee stings

[–]Mister_Rabbit 37 points38 points ago

I'm pretty sure Skrillex = Darlene from Roseanne

[–]kingebeneezer 15 points16 points ago

My thoughts everytime I see this! He looks like a chick to me.

Why does Skrillex even exist?

Well, when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much...

[–]Overdriver18 68 points69 points ago

Well, nowadays they don't even really need to love each other...

[–]Battletooth 33 points34 points ago

Yep. Just one overly attached girlfriend that pokes a needle through all your condoms while they are still in the wrappers will do.

[–]fazzah 10 points11 points ago

Hell, nowadays they don't even have to know each others names...

[–]bpoag 5 points6 points ago

Or gender.

[–]Splooge_Hero 3 points4 points ago

Hell, they don't even need to know if the other participant is a human!

[–]fazzah 5 points6 points ago

A black child approaches her white mother and asks:

-- Mommy, you are white, daddy is asian, then why my skin is dark?

-- Honey, the party was so crazy you should be thankful you're not barking...

[–]hypnoderp 0 points1 point ago

Hell, nowadays they don't even need condoms.

He was pretty cool in From First to Last. When he was Sonny Moore.

[–]ayures 1 point2 points ago

pretty cool

From First to Last

lol

[–]SixxSixxSixxthDemon 0 points1 point ago

Finally, someone who knows where he started. Thank you. People honestly believe his name is "Skrillex", which I can't believe... Doesn't that sound a little off to them?

[–]AMostOriginalUserNam 13 points14 points ago

I don't think many people believe that is his real name, but they refer to him that way because they don't know his real name and/or he is most famous as 'Skillrex'.

[–]SixxSixxSixxthDemon 0 points1 point ago

Maybe the people I know are just stupid then. That would actually explain a lot of things...

[–]roywarner 0 points1 point ago

Probably. For starters, I assume they listen to Skrillex.

[–]BlackCat818 4 points5 points ago

"Skrillex" = Sonny's old AIM screen name

[–]thisisaconspirac 2 points3 points ago

Wow. The fact that you know that...

[–]psyscowasp 1 point2 points ago

Holy. Shit. Mind = Blown.

I have no idea how to react to what I just discovered.

[–]FriendlyBeard 5 points6 points ago

You really had no idea?

[–]psyscowasp 1 point2 points ago

I'm not a big enough fan to to know who was fronting for what band when and then what he changed his name to.

[–]nevershagagreek 1 point2 points ago

I still have no idea. A couple of months ago, "Skrillex" came up on my Draw Something and I thought "what the fuck is that??" I suppose I could google and fill myself in, but for now I'm ok with being WAY out of the loop.

[–]Bethurz 0 points1 point ago

When I got Skrillex on Draw Something, my reaction was "how the fuck am I supposed to draw that?"

[–]squid1178 4 points5 points ago

[–]villiger2 10 points11 points ago

[–]BlackCat818 1 point2 points ago

[–]Oo0o8o0oO 0 points1 point ago

Not at all surprised? From bad hardcore comes bad dubstep.

[–]ayures 1 point2 points ago

You spelled "screamo" and "brostep" wrong.

[–]Oo0o8o0oO 1 point2 points ago

I also spelled "Random bass drops and repetitive electronic samples" wrong. I'm trying to use the common vernacular.

[–]stupidpanda 0 points1 point ago

You are so right. Ride The Wings Of Pestilence goes hard.

[–]Aerocity 0 points1 point ago

He released an EP, "Bells". It was pretty good. The only place I could even find it was on TPB, can't even find a real place to buy it anymore. Definitely worth a listen though.

[–]thisisaconspirac -2 points-1 points ago

Nope still pretty douchey then. I can't believe I listened to such crap.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Did you ever talk to the guy? He was super down to earth. Not a big fan of his newer music, but he's always been super cool; I even follow him on twitter.

[–]Dispatcher9 1 point2 points ago

I just looked him up on youtube (because I've heard the name but never listened to it)...

What, the fuck. Is this the bullshit that kids are listening to?

...andddd this is the moment where I become old.

[–]chonnes 0 points1 point ago

The world needed someone to fill the role as the #21 Richest DJ in the World. http://www.celebritynetworth.com/articles/entertainment-articles/30-richest-djs-world/

[–]bashobt -2 points-1 points ago

Not that I listen to dubstep but I think it's important to note that NOBODY gives a flying fuck about your opinions regarding music.

[–]darsonia 0 points1 point ago

because he's a bitch

[–]ForumWarrior 0 points1 point ago

Because of the lighting angle and grey t-shirt. Anyone would look like they have tits in the right shirt and lighting.

[–]Razer1103 -4 points-3 points ago

That's funny, because (s)he starts moving before (s)he actually started touching the equipment. The bass dropped before (s)he dropped it. It's just pre-recorded and fake. What a huge fail. Seriously, everything (s)he does up there is just for show, and it's not even good show.

[–]biacco 8 points9 points ago

you don't press a button to 'drop da bass'

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

There isn't a "drop da bass" button on your laptop?

[–]PokeyOats 1 point2 points ago

Never go the full retard!

Given the location of the nob he's going to it would be an effect.

And that effect could be anything based on the fact that he has a laptop and the deck most likely therefore a MIDI controller.

[–]Engrish_Prease 96 points97 points ago

I like it more when he drops the bass.. http://i.imgur.com/yaiHX.gif

[–]catoftrash 3 points4 points ago

beautiful, just beautiful.

[–]JaggerA 34 points35 points ago

Does anyone have the actual video?

[–]Andersmith 1 point2 points ago

Apparently not.

[–]StewieBanana 221 points222 points ago

"Makes me laugh harder every time I watch it" Translation: I know this is repost, but watch again. It funny.

[–]JCoxRocks 28 points29 points ago

I've been doing Reddit wrong. Need to start storing each day's #1 post and repost in a few weeks with "This is still funny, etc, etc, etc"

[–]SupDanLOL 10 points11 points ago

Then you'll be doing Reddit correctly. Lots of karma means you are winning.

[–]loves_reposts 2 points3 points ago

What can one do with their magical internet points?

[–]SupDanLOL 1 point2 points ago

You ummm.....errr....you just win, okay?

[–]I_Lyk_Dis 1 point2 points ago

Well if you keep trying, eventually you can have as many points as Karmanaut. Then everyone will love you! Oh, wait...

[–]Picklwarrior 0 points1 point ago

Then you'll be Mind_Virus

[–]CheeseYogi 3 points4 points ago

Step 1.) Acquire link karma by reposting links

Step 2.) Peddle your "influence" to media companies by hiring on as a social media consultant

Step 3.) Profit

[–]get_unoffended 4 points5 points ago

Hey guys, if it gets upvoted to the front page, that most means people haven't seen it before. Difficult concept, I know!

[–]StewieBanana 0 points1 point ago

Dude chill, we know it's a repost, but we don't mind watching it again. You know, because it's funny.

[–]CarlWheezer -1 points0 points ago

Imagine how boring reddit would be if only original material was posted. Now quit bitching.

[–]LilSassy 8 points9 points ago

the hair lighting on fire was a beautiful touch

I'm pretty sure that's a toaster, but hell it'd probably work as an instrument in this case.

[–]BonkVonFuzzle 2 points3 points ago

Can someone link the video that this gif is taken from?

[–]Socialist_Asshole 13 points14 points ago

I want to laugh, but my mind removes the bee and I just get angry.

[–]Garbagio 1 point2 points ago

It's harder to remove the sick bass (repost from comment above)

[–]Socialist_Asshole 1 point2 points ago

You're right, this time I actually laughed

[–]Smdsmdsmd 2 points3 points ago

It's frightening to imagine him doing that without the bee.

[–]xelested 6 points7 points ago

Oh hey, this sure is some original content right here.

[–]Jaquatic 22 points23 points ago

I can see what all the buzz is about.

[–]ghostly_harmless 3 points4 points ago

He certainly can bee entertaining.

[–]rubber_duckyy -2 points-1 points ago

Meh, his music really stings my ears.

[–]filmisbone 9 points10 points ago

Does Thom Yorke have one of these bee gifs? If not, what're you waiting for, interweb?

Saw it while listening to this. Really added to the experience for me. (Skip to 1:00 in)

Why did nobody made a porn version of this ? and why does this seem so obvious to me ?

[–]Lithex 1 point2 points ago

I laughed so fucking hard.

[–]wqm 1 point2 points ago

Someone should make a gif of like the last second or two where he starts humping the table.

[–]Gary_the_Goatfucker 9 points10 points ago

What inclines a man to do that sort of thing?

[–]WeetThins 24 points25 points ago

The same reason you're on Reddit.

You do it because it is what you like to do.

Ever since 6th grade I discovered Pendulum (drum and bass group) and fell in love with all things EDM (electronic dance music).

I'm sure a lot of people look at Skrillex as the figure head of EDM right now, and that all the music is just WOBLSDFSDUAUWUWUWUUWUWUW OH MAH GERD DRUP DER BUS, but I assure you there is a lot more to it than that.

For people who dislike the constant robotic noises of dubstep, there is Trance Trance is generally very melodic and soulful compared to what Dubstep is.

Same can go for Progressive House

Addredaline junkies tend to prefer Drum and Bass

If you wanna get really weird and funky...try Moombahton I personally don't dip into this genre that much, but I think it's supposed to be a mixture of current EDM styles mixed with latin influence.

Hell even Dubstep isn't always WUBRURUURWEEEE as most make it seem. Liquid Dubstep as some call it, is a perfect example of dubstep that isn't OH MA GERD SKRILLEX DRUPS THE BOOS

Edit:

Two progessive house/house songs that are just plain amazing that I feel like everyone should listen to before judging EDM.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyFzoLU2SBE (has the singer from One Republic)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHO3dE-IDWk (it's Calvin Harris singing...his voice is godly)

[–]Gary_the_Goatfucker 2 points3 points ago

I don't mind dubstep. But when I hear skrillex all I hear is SKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREESKREE

[–]BrianPeppersismyDad 1 point2 points ago

Your last link is actually Example singing, absolutely great vocals that is always in the mix. May I recommend Midnight Run check out the Flux remix to that, and also an original by them www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5CcOq8UzkI

[–]SpiritVapor 1 point2 points ago

Wow you commented exactly what I wanted to and more!

I got into EDM through trance, and loved every other genre (okay hardstyle sometimes isn't my favorite.) I actually feel like Skrillex is a pretty good artist. I never got why he was subject to so much hate except for the fact people dislike dubstep?

[–]WeetThins 1 point2 points ago

It's his personality and his fanbase.

He is a bit egocentric and extremely hipster about things, and his music draws in a terrible crowd of people who only listen to Dubstep.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]WeetThins 3 points4 points ago

[–]Rellikx 2 points3 points ago

What did he not say?

[–]mindkilla123 -2 points-1 points ago

I prefer true dubstep, liquid DnB and house/electro for my electronic music. It's really anything but Skrillex's "Dubstep" which is retarded noises but together that makes me sick- better labelled as "brostep".

[–]jmuzz 15 points16 points ago

To do what sort of thing? Make music and perform at big parties? Seems like a pretty normal thing for a person to want to do if you ask me.

[–]iamanooj 6 points7 points ago

I think OP was referring to the head... spazzing/banging motions while on stage rather than the music and performing.

[–]jmuzz 6 points7 points ago

Well, that's part of the performance. I don't see what stands out about that compared to every other band / dj when they're on stage.

[–]Morphdog9819 7 points8 points ago

People on reddit just like to pick on him. That's really the only reason.

[–]spamato 2 points3 points ago

He's just standing there and he suddenly wigs out like that. You don't think it looks funny?

[–]Time2kill 2 points3 points ago

He already done plenty of that when he was the vocal of From First to Last.

[–]Nmb910 0 points1 point ago

Isn't it more like a hump-the-computer motion?

[–]iamanooj 0 points1 point ago

That... actually makes sense.

[–]tweezyb 13 points14 points ago

Money. Attention.

[–]ErsatzCats 1 point2 points ago

If you look closely that's not a real bee.

[–]eyereport 2 points3 points ago

What!?

How can you tell?

[–]cyberbemon 0 points1 point ago

Pixels man, I can tell by looking at the pixels !

[–]Ukaners 4 points5 points ago

Makes me downvote every time I see the repost.

[–]subtly_irrelevant 1 point2 points ago

Just some background music when you watch the gif, from 0:25. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR2XilcGYOo&feature=youtube_gdata_player

[–]tomthecool 5 points6 points ago

[–]Andersmith 1 point2 points ago

there's a youtube feature for that -.- : http://youtu.be/cR2XilcGYOo?t=25s see? t=25s. That simple.

[–]tomthecool 0 points1 point ago

Erm... I used that other site to put the gif together with the music, on one page. Simply using that youtube feature won't do that, obviously.

[–]stevejFTW 3 points4 points ago

What's the point of going to a dubstep concert? What so you can over pay to see a half bald douche hit play on his macbook and turn a couple knobs to make it look like he is doing something?

[–]TetraCleric 2 points3 points ago

You know, a lot of DJ's do like, live mixes and such in their sets. Skrillex happens to do that as well. I don't understand why you are hung up on the medium he uses to play music, or why because you don't know what the buttons he's pressing are doing means he's doing nothing significant. But then again, its reddit so fuck skrillex.

[–]TilduhTilduhTilduh 0 points1 point ago

I prefer to go see a guy sitting on a stool alone strumming a c major chord progression over trite lyrics that have been written thousands of times before.

Everything is stupid if you oversimplify it.

[–]Travv 1 point2 points ago

Anyone else reminded of Garth?

[–]KDIZZLL 1 point2 points ago

And then he pretends by turning all kinds of knobs and shit.

[–]LiThiuMElectro 1 point2 points ago

[–]thegreatwhitemenace 0 points1 point ago

not the bees, etc.

[–]the8thdwarf 0 points1 point ago

Anybody else think he looks like MTV V-Jay Kennedy?

[–]hoptowngurl09 0 points1 point ago

Is there a video somewhere for this?

[–]beachjustice 0 points1 point ago

I've always wondered, what does a DJ actually do when he's spinning knobs? Are there ever DJs that do this just to look like they're doing something?

[–]dannysxu 0 points1 point ago

I'm sure they're are dj's that do that, but skrillex is a producer not a dj. His sets all include two hours of live mixing. Half of his set are tracks he makes up on the spot by mixing other songs. It's really not that simple.

[–]beachjustice 0 points1 point ago

Ah ok cool. Sounds potentially interesting. It must be to some degree with a crowd like that.

[–]dannysxu 1 point2 points ago

The crowd was pretty young, like barely seventeen young. Not that I have something against younger kids, but illegaly acquired beverages and low tolerance levels in kids ended up with me getting bit by some drunk chick. Fucked up. The show was one heck of an experience though.

[–]Sojoez 0 points1 point ago

So when did dancing became a synonym to "having a seizure"?

[–]ngrout 0 points1 point ago

This is why I Reddit.

[–]turbojeebus 2 points3 points ago

Man he is amazing at pushing play.

[–]dannysxu 0 points1 point ago

His shows are all live mixes, stop the hate.

[–]geraldfjord -1 points0 points ago

He's even better at having a team of people make music for him to put his name on!

[–]DoctorLost173 1 point2 points ago

Skrillex went fishing and caught a bass. Unfortunately he dropped it.

[–]YSCapital -1 points0 points ago

Does skrillex have tits?

What gets me is when he's looking at the camera in the beginning, like he's trying to see if we're watching

[–]MandatoryFun 3 points4 points ago

It also looks like he misses the timing on the cue for the drop ... I would put money on it. It looks like the drop came, then he was like "oh yeah, I am performing here ... ", after the fact.

[–]aveilleux 0 points1 point ago

[–]Wickersteve 0 points1 point ago

WOW

[–]SixxSixxSixxthDemon -1 points0 points ago

Well, before he started making this stuff, he was in a band called From First To Last, and he was actually pretty good. Don't get me wrong- I like his music now- but had he remained in FFTL, good things could have come of it.

[–]geraldfjord -3 points-2 points ago

Skrillex is a talentless hack.

[–]FloobLord -1 points0 points ago

Still better than Rattatat.
