What a legend. Glad he shouted out the pioneers of the sound, NSD and dub police. Big up the Croydon ManDem. The scene might have gone over seas to USA but UK will always be the home of dubstep, Garage, Dnb and grime. Where my bassline crew at??!!
scary monsters and nice sprites really is great. I too think he deserved that forth grammy, but what's even more important is, that he didn't say something like: hell yeah, i deserve them all, but he was very humble. not only nice sprites and nice songs, but also a nice character. he really deserved it.
This is crazy. I had no idea he was even nominated for some grammy awards! I hope this can spread the sound of dubstep and D&B. I wish I could have been there, no one even knew who he was. I would have gladly stood up and made a scene...Way to go Sonny! :)
I met Skrillex for about 10 minutes after his performance here in Vegas back in Jan. 21, and of all the musical artists I have met, I have never met someone so true, humble, and real than this guy. So dedicated to what he believes in, like his music, and I felt HONORED to shoot the shit and get a picture with who seems to be THE FUTURE of music today. Skrillex, thank you for doing what you do!!!!
I don't know much about dubstep, except it's a cool new way of making music, but I guess this Skrillex dude it's really a nice guy and a humble artist. I think I gonna check out his work.
I am a metalhead... I didn't know what the eff dubstep, brostep whatever it is called was untill recently when one of my most favourite bands (Korn) did a collaboration with this electronic genre. The mix was awesome. I discovered that one of the djs was Skrillex. Since then I have listened to his music. I am not a fan of electronic music but I give his an exception. I think he deserved the grammies!
Great work SkrilleX. U dared to be different. Hard work and a musical change of direction needs to be applauded. What do we call it besides BroStep. ;) I'm 40+ and love your work especially the vocal remixes and I grew up loving the electronic music like Moog, popcorn etc Wishing you a prosperous future.
He is good, no disrespect. But those who know the whole dubstep scene know there are a lot of other artists that deserve the same recognition level as him. No one mentioned no one forgotten.
Yup. He's doing his thing. He makes music, tries new stuff and different stuff and - it works. Back in the days people looked down on Elvis, he was "out of line" but he continued doing what he was good at and saw it through. I'm not comparing those two artists like they're the same in success or whatever, but one thing i do know is that they both made it And Sonny Moore makes his own music - Elvis didn't.
People used to say that electric guitars and rock were shit, back in the day. Guess what? People are so narrowminded that they focus on what they like (nobody has the perfect taste in music anyway) instead of what is really going on with the music. Skrillex is an innovator, and that's it. Kudos to him.
Okay people need to relax. 1) He had notes on his phone 2) He gives props to his roots and even his fellow competition. If that makes him a douche I have no clue what the hell I am. He even went as far to say he didn't feel he deserved it. 3) If you don't like him, don't watch the video. 4) I'm American, I love dubstep, and millions of other people do too.
I don't know why people be hatin on skrillex, I think he's a pretty cool guy no matter how bad or how good you think his music is, you can't say that he's not a cool guy.
With Beyoncé winning 4 Grammies this year, I had to remember that Skrillex, THEN Daft punk were the artists holding the title for most Grammies won the same year (both being 3)
This stuff isn't everyone's taste.. I know because I didn't like it at first either... But now I am obsessed with mash-ups. If you go onto hypem.com and run some of the music on these blog sites, you will soon be opened up to a whole new world of music, and might actually start to appreciate his talent... I believe any one who receives a Grammy deserves it... Why else would they win it? He is so humble to. God Bless him
People need to stop hating on Sonny. If you dont like him dont watch the videos. I mean i know you have your opnion and i 100% support that you have one. But if you dont have nothing nice to say dont say it at all (:
@Vansriper i was a dubstep fan as well before skrillex and i was impressed that one guy decided to do something different and he blew up and gained a lot of popularity and i think he deserved it. im not narrow minded when i hear something different and say shit. i've been a long time dubstep fan and i have a lot of respect for skrillex, not only cuz the guy is a beast in producing, but also that he can mix many different genre's together. that is not your ordinary electronic producer.
I have never been a fan of Skrillex, but after reading multiple articles, interviews and discovering many tracks, I realized how amazing this guy is. I think the large amount of people hating should learn more about Skrillex and his personnality. He's a very humble man from what you can see on this video. Moreover, it's probably not the style of music you like, I personnaly, am not a big fan, but I respect him. So i don't think it is necessary to call him a "faggot" or "asshole" it won't change
I like listening to skrillex to get pumped like before a game or something and I also like listening to other dubstep artist when I just want to relax..... like modestep ect.
I don't really like skrillex but after seeing this my opinion changed a bit. He seems like a really humble and nice guy. Still don't enjoy his music as much as others do but.
Mate, the difference between him and a 'talented' popstar is he doesn't sing, but makes the music that got him so far. America isn't one to accept change; but welcome to the future buddy.
I've actually been inside his downtown LA loft. It looked as if somebody Elmer glued a bunch of plywood on top of each other. It was practically about to fall over. But hey, at least he was walking distance away from Wurstkuche!
SO PROUD OF SKRILLEX AND SO ARE ALL US FANS OF HIS!! haters, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep on hating on him, we'll play his music louder louder and louder ^_^
Honestly how can people hate this dude. He's so humble
Not because of her characteristics,because she makes annoying sounds.
Nesquick Guy Okay you obviously have no idea what you're talking about cus Skrillex is a guy.
***** Captain Obvious.You have no idea what is joke.
Nesquick Guy that was a terrible joke
+TheGameLane because you are fucking dumbass skrillex fanboy kid
He sounds like Jonah Hill lol.
yes jack
WTF!! JACKSEPTICEYE!! LMAO
Why are you here jack
Hahaha wtf is jack doing here? XD hopefully he likes dubstep
similar accent.... good to see you here....

What's so "omg !"about that bitch
+Ronald De WUB
Justice too :D
He sounds so nervous... ._. (////-\\\\) OMFG I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.....
What a legend. Glad he shouted out the pioneers of the sound, NSD and dub police. Big up the Croydon ManDem. The scene might have gone over seas to USA but UK will always be the home of dubstep, Garage, Dnb and grime. Where my bassline crew at??!!
He was either looking at his phone for notes or to see how many people were calling him
Love the shout out to Daft Punk!!! Only right!! :D
Grammys well deserved! This guy changed EDM forever. Polarizing artists are always the best. Love it or hate it, hes here to stay!
scary monsters and nice sprites really is great. I too think he deserved that forth grammy, but what's even more important is, that he didn't say something like: hell yeah, i deserve them all, but he was very humble. not only nice sprites and nice songs, but also a nice character. he really deserved it.
Skrillex. it has been 8 years and i am still waiting for the jazz cover to scary monsters
This is crazy. I had no idea he was even nominated for some grammy awards! I hope this can spread the sound of dubstep and D&B. I wish I could have been there, no one even knew who he was. I would have gladly stood up and made a scene...Way to go Sonny! :)
Skrillex is truly adorkable, he's such a geek for his music, it's nice to see an artist so proud of his work.
He seems like a really nice genuine guy, I saw him live last week, was awesome!
Saw him live, the best thing I've ever experienced. He's phenomenal!
HIS ARMS ARE CONSTANTLY MOVING I LOVE HIM
0:58 Skrillex: Mom i won 3 grammy's
Mom: with that music of grandma farting?
Skrillex: Yeeaahh....
Mom: Good For You c:
2:30
Do NOT give Sonny your bass! You know he'll just fuckin drop it
He is so nervous! It's adorable! JK but it is
really don't know why he has so many haters. he's fabulous at what he does and really grateful for all his support. what a guy!
hes a really generous guy & seeing him go from from first to last to the sonny moore project to this it's really amazing for him
I met Skrillex for about 10 minutes after his performance here in Vegas back in Jan. 21, and of all the musical artists I have met, I have never met someone so true, humble, and real than this guy.

See Skrillex say "Daft Punk" was one of the most awesome moments of my life.
I'm like inlove with Sonny Moore 3
congratulations to Skrillex for win 3 grammys is wonderful to know this good notice!
i love sonny so fokin much. i can't control myself, ohmygod
I am a metalhead... I didn't know what the eff dubstep, brostep whatever it is called was untill recently when one of my most favourite bands (Korn) did a collaboration with this electronic genre.

I think he deserved the grammies!
gosh..he seems so shy about speaking in public.charming:)made me smile
💜👽Skrillex 👽💜
Pretty sure he wrote who he wanted to thank in the notes app on his phone so he could be sure he wouldn't forget anyone. Sweetheart he is
Skrillex👽👽👽👽
Totally agree. The piano version of all his songs sound amazing, but piano or electronic, i think they're both really good.
I thought so too but you can tell he checking his notes on who to thank.
Great work SkrilleX. U dared to be different.
Hard work and a musical change of direction needs to be applauded. What do we call it besides BroStep. ;)
I'm 40+ and love your work especially the vocal remixes and I grew up loving the electronic music like Moog, popcorn etc
Wishing you a prosperous future.
I love his voice..... O.o
Love how he won like this it's awesome fits his roots from coming from the internet
im here representing croydon! love to be a part of a place that kicked this all off!
So happy for Sonny Moore.
He totally deserves more!!!
THE ONLY ONE WHO PAYS ATTENTION TO THE PHONE WHEN HE GETS 3 GRAMMYS, RESPECT
He is good, no disrespect. But those who know the whole dubstep scene know there are a lot of other artists that deserve the same recognition level as him. No one mentioned no one forgotten.
I spent the last 2 days sitting in my bedroom listening to Skrillex. He's a F*%#ing BOSS
Yup. He's doing his thing. He makes music, tries new stuff and different stuff and - it works. Back in the days people looked down on Elvis, he was "out of line" but he continued doing what he was good at and saw it through. I'm not comparing those two artists like they're the same in success or whatever, but one thing i do know is that they both made it And Sonny Moore makes his own music - Elvis didn't.
skrillex really deserved these awards!
SKRILLEX DID DESERVE ALL 3 AWARDS!! should've even gotten the fourth...
Before he was up there he was making notes for what to say if he won the grammy so he was writing down people to thank and stuff.
People used to say that electric guitars and rock were shit, back in the day.
Guess what? People are so narrowminded that they focus on what they like (nobody has the perfect taste in music anyway) instead of what is really going on with the music. Skrillex is an innovator, and that's it.

I miss him in from first to last.. His voice is so gorgeous!!
With Beyoncé winning 4 Grammies this year, I had to remember that Skrillex, THEN Daft punk were the artists holding the title for most Grammies won the same year (both being 3)
i dont think ive ever heard skrillex voice until now
legit, way to go man
This stuff isn't everyone's taste.. I know because I didn't like it at first either... But now I am obsessed with mash-ups. If you go onto hypem.com and run some of the music on these blog sites, you will soon be opened up to a whole new world of music, and might actually start to appreciate his talent...

why do i get the feeling that you have nothing to say so you bring up the "life" comeback.how original
Listen to Sonny Moore when he was in From First To Last
What a change
It's good to see that he knows where dubstep started! Croydon!! -3
Such a genuine dude.
and he makes really melodies , i mean scary monsters and nice sprites has the best three melodies i've ever heard
"There is no format anymore" - Respect to Skrillex!
People need to stop hating on Sonny. If you dont like him dont watch the videos. I mean i know you have your opnion and i 100% support that you have one. But if you dont have nothing nice to say dont say it at all (:

FINALLY I GET TO HEAR HIS VOICE!!
Love your work Skrillex~
Not my fave genre of music or fave creator, but I do enjoy it a lot.
That was actually a good speech
warms....you're more than amazing S-K.
skrillex and deadmau5 is like, meat and burgers, two awesome but insanely different things. I just love both musics.
Skrillex is the fucking man, coming out of blue and doing what he does, he fucking deserves it!
scary monsters and nice sprites winning under best dance recording is hilarious!
I have never been a fan of Skrillex, but after reading multiple articles, interviews and discovering many tracks, I realized how amazing this guy is.

You are, my cinema skrillex! :*
Why do people hate on him for being 'mainstream' it's not his fault he makes good music and people love him :)
first of the year is the best song from skrillex and Lady Gaga- Died This Way (Skrillex Remix) best rmx
skrillex is the michael jackson of dubstep, without him many of the dj's we've come to love would have never made good music
I like listening to skrillex to get pumped like before a game or something and I also like listening to other dubstep artist when I just want to relax..... like modestep ect.
the dude who win 3 grammies award with music he created in bedroom, datss what i called 'awsum'
his phone was his list of ppl to thank and give props too...speech aid...
he is completely different then i expected
I love that his awards acctually open doors for other musicans! :D
He could be reading one of those planned 'IF' I win speeches that he'd written price.
he was reading his speech from his phone, nice
I don't really like skrillex but after seeing this my opinion changed a bit. He seems like a really humble and nice guy. Still don't enjoy his music as much as others do but.
In america pop music and all types of techno music from, dubstep, electronica, Trance, hardcore etc. is becoming more popular.
That was great :D
At least he respected an remembered dubsteps history
Omg leave skrillex alone he's doing his best!!!!!!!
wow at least he acknowledged the croydon scene! didnt see that coming!
Mate, the difference between him and a 'talented' popstar is he doesn't sing, but makes the music that got him so far. America isn't one to accept change; but welcome to the future buddy.
was good that he put a shout out to the boys back in Croydon
I agree. I know too many people who listen ONLY to dubstep. but i think DnB is where its at :) DSL!
Only Skrillex can read his speech from a phone on the grammys.
I've actually been inside his downtown LA loft. It looked as if somebody Elmer glued a bunch of plywood on top of each other. It was practically about to fall over. But hey, at least he was walking distance away from Wurstkuche!
And what is amazing is that he uses only his laptop and speakers,not some complicated shit.
yess six grammys FTW!!
SO PROUD OF SKRILLEX AND SO ARE ALL US FANS OF HIS!! haters, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep on hating on him, we'll play his music louder louder and louder ^_^
Like a boss skrillex should have gotten more
Albert Sanchez lol chill he is the most grammyd dj
Skrillex is an Amazing Guy! I'd Love To Meet Him! :D
Skrillex is a pretty inspirational guy
only skrillex wold be reading his speech from his i phone... ϟƘƦІןן∑X
I am so happy
