Skrillex Makes Triumphant Return with 'Quest For Fire'

**Skrillex steps back into the electronic music spotlight by releasing his first album of the year, the 15-track Quest For Fire.**

Skrillex made a triumphant return to the music scene by releasing six singles at the start of 2023, which firmly put him back in the spotlight. These releases have been a welcome surprise for his fans, who eagerly anticipated his comeback. It has been a period of nine years since the renowned musician behind “Rumble” released a solo album; however, at the beginning of 2023, he emerged from obscurity, and his fans expressed their belief that this was his year to shine. Skrillex’s latest album, Quest For Fire, is a significant achievement in his comeback, as it features a blend of eagerly anticipated tracks and never-before-heard compositions.

Last week, Skrillex made a surprise appearance on YouTube by uploading a video of him performing a basement mix that featured his latest album. Fans noticed a range of notable artists mentioned in the video’s bio, such as Bobby Raps, Missy Elliot, Fred Again.., Porter Robinson, Eli Keszler, Flowdan, Mr. Oizo, Aluna, and Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy, which led to speculation that the album would contain several collaborations. Additionally, Skrillex had previously released two tracks from the album – “Butterflies,” a joint venture with Starahh and Four Tet, and “Supersonic,” which features Noisia, Josh Pan, and Dylan Brady.

Quest For Fire represents a significant departure from Skrillex’s previous musical style as he continues to press on with his artistic evolution. The 48-second track titled “Warped Tour ’05 with pete WENTZ” offers a nostalgic glimpse into his past as a member of the post-hardcore band From First to Last. In the track, he recounts his experiences of living a transient lifestyle, frequently relying on the hospitality of others and sleeping on floors. It serves as a reflection on his personal journey and serves to inspire his fans, showcasing the possibility of achieving success through hard work, dedication to his craft, and perseverance.

“Leave Me Like This,” featuring Bobby Raps, seamlessly fuses the old-school electronic sound with Skrillex’s new and innovative style. The unique blend of styles brings a fresh and exciting element to the track, serving as a testament to Skrillex’s ability to push the boundaries of electronic music. Following this, the final track on the album, “Still Here (with the ones that I came with),” featuring Porter Robinson and Bibi Bourelly, highlights Skrillex’s penchant for creating emotionally charged and intense compositions. This track builds on the sound that Skrillex introduced to the world in 2017 with his single “Favor” and features an impressive blend of intricate and dynamic instrumentals with powerful vocals. These two tracks offer a glimpse into Skrillex’s evolution as a producer and DJ and highlight the artist’s creativity and versatility.

With the release of his new album, Skrillex is likely to have many more surprises in store for his fans in 2023, who eagerly await his upcoming projects and live performances.
