music How many of you hate Skrillex

[Taco Horse 116]

I'm not going to go far as to say I hate him, it's more of his fan base that annoys me.  I have some friends that really like him and think he's gods gift to music or something along those lines.

[Sks_Burns 730]

i dont mind his music that much. alot of it doesnt impress me, but theres a few good standout tracks that have high energy and are just plain fun to listen to. 

 

i cant really hate anyone who shares a haircut with Fluttershy though. 

[PoniesPlease 365]

We're bronies, we don't 'Hate' anything. But i'm sure some people just "Really really really dislike him".

 

And I've never listened to him, so No.

[WildCard 1,037]

I like him. Especially the songs "First of the Year" "Kyoto" "SM&NS" and "Make it Bun Dem" are awesome and I listen to them quite often

[Rolls Royce 606]

I don't like Skrillex, and I just don't like dubstep.  It's not my type of music, and I tried listening to it, just didn't appeal to me at all.  I'm more of a 60's though the early 90's guy for music.

[LMW-YBC 102]

Well, I wouldn't say that I hate his music. It's just the fact that people misconcept it as Dubstep that ticks me off. It sounds nothing like Dubstep; more of a 'Moombahcore Electro' style of music. But I do admit that his style got old to me and that he has been rather lazy recently for a mainstream artist.

 

But for the person he is, I absolutely despise him! He's rude, he treats his fans like dirt, his hair is a crime to fashion and all-in-all he's just a bad role model.

I'm not a fan of Skrillex.  I don't hate him, but I do dislike his music.  I guess most dubstep just isn't for me, no matter who creates it.  

[Esk 201]

I don't hate him, he's probably a decent guy. I don't like dubstep in general, honestly. I have no problem with those who do, I'm just more of an oldies person.

Reptile is the only song I like by him. His other stuff is too... Intense for my tastes.

 

I prefer progressive house.

 

I like Skrillex. He's my favourite Dubstep artist as well as Deadmau5 and Nero.

 
deadmau5 =/= dubstep

[That Guy 100]

i don't hate him, nor do i love/like him either.
i think his music get too..dunno, just never liked his music. tho i must admit i enjoy ruffneck base, not sure why but i just do
and if i want some good dubstep i'll just listen to Monstercat or something :3

[SrFrog 927]

I don't hate him, but I don't like him. Mostly, I hate that he became the poster face for an uninspired genre and actually made a career out of solely that, and nothing else.

[Fridge 382]

I'm not a huge fan of dustep but from what I've heard Skillrex is alright. The first I heard of him though was on the revamped Syndicate game trailer.

[Znex 936]

I haven't really listened to much Skrillex (though mostly because I've avoided him like the plague), but from what I've heard of his, I can say I don't like him. One reason at least is because none of his drops complement the flow of the songs. They're just obnoxious chunks of noise he might have done well without, but instead they seem left in as an afterthought just to make them dubstep. eg. I actually would have liked Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites if it weren't for those drops that just ruined the atmosphere and flow of the song.

 

I tend to listen to a lot of pony music and one guy in particular who makes dubstep I actually like is Omnipony. He's very good in actually keeping both the atmosphere and flow throughout:
