Does anyone else like Skrillex?

I know he's pretty heavily criticised because he uses technology instead of instruments, but I am really addicted to him!
I think it relates to my Asperger's, I find the repetitive patterns really soothing and addictive and I love to stim to his tracks.
Just wondered if anyone else is the same.

Wow that IS good. Full of energy but patterned and not overwhelming. Awesome!

I found this on YouTube, thought you might like it also.

Hahahaha that is awesome! Thanks this has made my day

He used to be the lead singer of a Post-Hardcore Band, he went into electronic music after he had to leave as he was damaging his vocal chords.

Yeah I used to love From First To Last when I was 13, strange how he has crept back into my life again.

I love Skrillex. I don't care what people think of his music or if he's over-rated or whatnot. The first song I ever heard by him was Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites and With You Friends. These songs also mean a lot to me because they remind me of a good friend I left behind in Calgary with whom I don't talk to anymore.
Is it just me or does a lot of people with AS seem to like techno music in general? Do you think it has something to do with bringing out our emotions?

This one is a good one as well.

This is my favorite Skrillex song. It reminds me of my own mind, and my mom agrees.

Possibly, I know for me personally it helps me stim and release energy. I find the repetitiveness really addictive, if I listen to one of these songs I put it on repeat and listen to it about 30 times. I don't know if I've ever felt an emotional release though.

Yes, I went to see him live in Edinburgh he rocks the planet!

Old people don't like it so much.

I agree with you on the energy part. I find that especially trance music brings out my emotions. Deadmau5 brings out my emotions big time.

I am a big moby fan, Skrillex fits right into my head. Thx for introducing me to it!

I do love electronic music. Drum & Bass and Trance are my favorites. I am honestly not a fan of dubstep, in general. There are, however, a few dubstep remixes I've heard that I actually like, but that's about it. And, I'm sorry, but I can't stand Skrillex. I tried to get into him, but it just wasn't working. I even tried Deadmau5 a bit, but I couldn't even deal with him for extended periods of time. IDK I guess I've always been into more obscure stuff. It's in my nature.
