Well, see ya dubstep, it was nice knowing ya! Between this and Justin Bieber saying he's going to use it on his next album, I think it's safe to say this is a fad and we all know what happens to fads.
I just hope the good, darker UK dubstep survives.

like it or not, thats an accomplishment no other Electronic dj/producer has done before or will ever be able to do.
The odds were COMPLETELY stacked up against him and he did this. I mean, he's primarily a dubstep producer (which still isn't even close to overall popularity in the US compared to progressive or electro house) and he never made a single vocal track (as compared to guetta/afrojack/calvin harris) that got played on pop radio.
I hope he wins.
Big ups Skrillex! :whip: :cool:

What about Deadmau5 being nominated for a Grammy in 2009?
Are you saying he is the only EDM artist to be nominated for Best New Artist?
When will his fans admit that he is just riding whatever wagon is popular atm?
Emo was cool, so he did that, now EDM is cool, so he is doing this... What is next?

tiesto still tops everything in EDM due to the fact Traffic was #1 on Billboard. The only non-vocal track to do so... but that was when billboard mattered.

Uhh wrong. Alot of edm artist have been nominated. Wasnt roni size nominated back in the day with his drum and bass sound?And Many more will in the future I'm sure.
I actually like some dub step. Skrillex has been able to carve out his own sounds which is admirable. Gotta give him props for his fast rise to the top of the genre while maintaining an addiction to meth. That's not easy

I guess it's the same with the Oscars. Such a big deal for industry-folk and fun to watch on TV, but if that's not what you're into then who cares?? I don't think many/any of my top 10 movies of the year will be getting any serious oscar nods this year. Doesn't bother me. It's lame when they do and stand no chance though. Like last year all of the nominations for Winter's Bone leading to nothing. What a disappointment haha.
