The EP kicks off with “fuze” in collaboration with ISOxo, channeling Skrillex’s early dubstep energies. Up next, “while you were sleeping” comes with Virtual Riot and Nakeesha and feels like a direct extension of his 2023 album Quest for Fire. Then “move ting”, again with Moody Good and Nakeesha, pushes big bass lines and aggressive vocal chops. The title track “hit me where it hurts x”, features Dylan Brady and Caroline Polachek, offering a percussive dance-masterpiece. Finally, “voltage (see you again)” revisits Skrillex’s 2010 track “Voltage”, rebuilt with hyper-pop production alongside Varg2™, Whitearmor, LOAM, Virtual Riot and Swedm®.
The EP further cements Skrillex’s role at the forefront of electronic music. His evolution from the early days of “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” to now shows a constant push for innovation, design-wise and sonically. With over 20 Grammy nominations and 9 wins, his power in the industry remains unmatched.
