This is one of the coolest projects Skrillex ever made imo. It's this little tucked away world with a lot more subtlety, released for free at the height of his career. I wish so badly that this was on streaming services. It's a hidden gem.
I love Skrillex. His music reminds me of things used to be really simpler in my life. All the little subtle sounds I noticed in his music, all the switch ups I think are genius. I played gears of war and listened to Skrill. And I used to smoke then too and lived in Houston TX. Wow flash back. I love all you guys who also listen to Skrill. God bless you guys 🙏
I remember when this dropped, i was 12 and sad cause i thought this was the end of skrilles making dubstep and moving on to other genres. 10 years later he’s made so many different genres including dubstep, bro’s a legend in the EDM scene
I am not going to lie. I did kinda of cry my first time hearing Leaving because I thought just like simplyfantastic58 , that this was his last EP , last songs. I am a die hard dubstep and EDM fan and Skrillex was the artist that introduced me to Dubstep and now I am hooked for life.
still amazes me how he dropped this lovely bit of emotional electronica and never returned to the sound...i know he was inspired by Burial at the time but i think he held his own and tunes like Leaving sit up there with some of the best emotional/dark electronica out there. even the vocals in The Reason get me every time...they just hit you right in the good spot!! x
This brought me so much memories when I was sleeping over at my exs house when I played this on RUclips to fall asleep 😪 I can vividly remember when the moonlight was shining on us, when I had found love, and when I lost it all.
That's actually a sample of him from his old song Copaface, the track also has the same backing piano melody and chord progression, so Leaving is essentially a future garage remix of Copaface.
I'm so happy he's making this kind of music again.... I think this is BY FAR the best album so far.... It kind of sounds like the stuff he made when he first became skrillex which is awesome
I do love it! It represents skrillex's advancement in the EDM genre, but just like Picasso, the masses won't respect this EP until they are advanced enough. And I'm not callin myself advanced; That comment wasn't directed at you
One of my favorite ep’s he’s ever done. I Remember, I was in high school and I had to beg my mom to buy a nest online subscription so I can listen to this. I ended up trying to put on my phone and my phone got ruined lol I had some cheap ass android.

I agree! I'm not sure why this never made an offical digital release. I don't even think its on itunes.
Agreed
@@ktb i believe it was clearing the samples? i might be remembering incorrect tho
robert, i agree with u LOL. also ive been subbed since 2019
it so should be all Apple this is OG

Dem feels, bro. True. Skrillex is like an idol for me.
U say for the rest of ur life?
Damn I forgot skrillex made this ep!! it's dope
Leaving is one of my christmas tunes...so nice to hear it again...hope all you fellow loners out there are safe and warm this christmas, much love x
Reason is maybe one of the best tracks from skrillex imo. Right after scary monsters and nice sprites, levels remix, and kill everybody.
reall
Have you heard “rock my body skrillex remix” or “Alejandro skrillex remix” these are really good as well (my favorite from him)
I think I haven't heard those. Thanks for the tip! @@rivvanwrat_h2918
been listening to skrillex since 2010 and i had no idea this ep existed!
feels like discovering his music all over again, i fuckin love it
Can't get over how much Leaving sounds like Burial
Mark Wray and thats actually good. ^^
@@HarrisonClayton-jh9vp he's talking about the artist, Burial, not the song...you know the guy whos even the reason this album exists lmao
Wow ! 😭😭😭 2010s, now to the 20s mannn it’s no joke and this was everything and will still be everything! We love you OWSLA And sonny!
La música de mi infancia fue la correcta, no pude haber obtenido más nostalgia con esto.

omg it's almost 10 years since he drop this beat wtf
I feel like that "reason" sample and "leaving" sample might be the same, kinda like that yanny/laurel thing but i'm not entirely sure
I’m like 99% they are
2022 we still bumping loud and proud

2023 now:)
@@NyroStudios absolutely!!
This EP never was bad, it’s just a shame it was so short.
You can see things of burial in the third track "Leaving", when a brostep producer looks back to the OG dubstep this happens
oh damn true
i listened it when it came out and i still feeling its great
The amount of times I keep going back to this project is nutz. I love it so much.
*I love this EP especially Leaving ❤, Nostalgia!, It's a crime that is not on streaming platforms.*
Right?! I went to add it and I couldn't 😭
This brought me so much memories when I was sleeping over at my exs house when I played this on RUclips to fall asleep 😪 I can vividly remember when the moonlight was shining on us, when I had found love, and when I lost it all.
Still listen to it, big nostalgia
What a solid 13 minutes. I can't get enough of this.
Still 2020 baby
That's actually a sample of him from his old song Copaface, the track also has the same backing piano melody and chord progression, so Leaving is essentially a future garage remix of Copaface.
the intro is so gorgeous skrillz
Skrillex, we need this style back!
So much memories 🥰
Dude. I haven't heard this song in years-
Same bru, since I was a teenager
The Mastering is brilliantly made
I'm so happy he's making this kind of music again.... I think this is BY FAR the best album so far.... It kind of sounds like the stuff he made when he first became skrillex which is awesome
thank u !!
So many memories
Skrillex: Leaving
Track Listing:
01: The Reason
02: Scary Bolly Dub
03: Leaving
before scary monsters and nice sprites….this is the best album he made! fucking dope!
I didn’t even know this EP existed 👀 I wonder why he didn’t publish this on streaming services
There's a lot of lost music by skrillex.
Still listening in 2023

Drops
(Without leaving)
Oh gawd this still bring memories.. 🖤
I couldn't find this album in Spotify. So this video is very good. :)
Thank Celestia! I need one
I dont know why everyone how love this hate Recess ?! Both albums are really great !
i love em so much
+Rena Friesen I love recess and scary monters and sprites
Thank You! Someone gets it!
Such a good album!
I do love it! It represents skrillex's advancement in the EDM genre, but just like Picasso, the masses won't respect this EP until they are advanced enough. And I'm not callin myself advanced; That comment wasn't directed at you
You guys just aren't advanced enough to like it, neither am I, but one day this EP will be loved
here to tell you, you were right. to me, at least. i remember not liking this when it came out and now i think it’s great 😅
Wow a blast from the past and yes “reason” is so fucking good
why does leaving bring me to my happy place????
An EP is a category of album. Like LPs, Live Albums, Compilation Albums etc. What you may refer simply as an album is a Studio Album.
chillstep
Real Burial vibes on a couple of these tracks... good stuff :)
He's changing dubstep once AGAIN. This guy is an innovator.
love this ep
At first, I thougt this would be Skrillex's last release. I'm so glad it's not!!!!!
still a banger!
i think its "leaving, just a part of living"
So dope
One of my favorite ep’s he’s ever done.
I Remember, I was in high school and I had to beg my mom to buy a nest online subscription so I can listen to this. I ended up trying to put on my phone and my phone got ruined lol I had some cheap ass android.
Ik I’m super late on this, but I think Skrillex secretly hinted at leaving (hence the EP name) the dubstep scene in search of other pursuits & other genres. Recess being the last time he would show his true dubstep potential before moving on & doing other genres instead.
I love his raggeae-style stuff.
i love his songs
trippin on diz shiz. fokkin awesome. chillstep @ it's best
The reason is still my No.1 track
Buenísimo :3
I don't want to burst your bubble but he's actually doing his own version of how dubstep used to sound before artists like him hit the scene. He's not really changing dubstep, he's shyly making his way back to dubstep's roots. I'm almost confident that this EP was a personal tribute to Burial.
Skrillex is so amazing the songs made me think hes actually leaving.

The reason that bolly is so scory, is because he is leaving.
The Reason I'm leaving is Scary Bolly Dub. Seems legit xd
I like the new album
