A New Era: Skrillex Reveals Album That Could Change Dubstep Forever
Skrillex sent an email to fans with previews of a bevy of new songs, including the long-awaited dubstep anthem "Voltage," before sharing the audio online.

A surprise transmission from Skrillex: a new album is coming tomorrow, April 1st.
It's not an April Fool's joke. Moments ago, the dubstep icon stunned fans by sending them an email containing an MP3 file with snippets of a slew of unreleased tracks. The file's metadata says it all, as does Skrillex's ensuing announcement on social media: "OUT TOMORROW."
Particularly of note is the inclusion of "Voltage," an unreleased dubstep track for which fans have been clamoring since as early as 2011. The same goes for his long-awaited collaboration with Space Laces, which fans tentatively titled "Kill Em" in the absence of an official release.
The unnamed album is set to be Skrillex's final release under Atlantic Records before becoming an independent artist. The producer in late 2024 revealed his plans to go independent after fulfilling his record contract by virtue of his next body of work, noting he "never felt more inspired and in lockstep with my intentions as an artist."
Few artists wield the kind of influence Skrillex does, and fewer still exit major label deals on their own terms. He has spent over a decade shaping the contours of electronic music production, bending genre lines with a ferocity matched by few. His next album, expected to revive his early dubstep sound, is primed to spark another paradigm shift for the genre.
