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 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.
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
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 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
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
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 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
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.
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.
This ep... No not so much. It's debatable weather or not Skrillex ever produced true to form dubstep, but his music sure as hell falls into that category. He started out as a dance floor oriented project making live dj mixes but he hit the studio when he started making his own remixes. He has his own destinct style that falls right in between dubstep, house music, and electro. Recently he's been leaning more toward the electro/house side with some heavy bass. Still I really enjoy listening.
For those of you who think he "changed his style", that's not the case. This album of his is very experimental, that doesn't mean he's changed. And the thing about "not being dubstep", you're right, it's not. It's a mixture of Electro House, Future Garage, Moombahton, and Deep House. Please, quit bitchin'.
actually i disagree, the song leaving is very similar to the chillstep genre, much like forekast, superbus, mitis, or in context produces, there is nothing wrong with him trying to make different sounds in his songs, and this ep shows that he is capable of doing that.
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 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
01 The reason 0:00 - 4:19
02 Scary bolly dub 4:19 - 8:05

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
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
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
*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 😭
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
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.

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

@@NyroStudios absolutely!!
Skrillex, we need this style back!
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
La música de mi infancia fue la correcta, no pude haber obtenido más nostalgia con esto.

Drops
(Without leaving)
Skrillex: Leaving
Track Listing:
01: The Reason
02: Scary Bolly Dub
03: Leaving
This EP never was bad, it’s just a shame it was so short.
i listened it when it came out and i still feeling its great

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
We need this on streaming services
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
Still listen to it, big nostalgia
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
What a solid 13 minutes. I can't get enough of this.

Dude. I haven't heard this song in years-
Same bru, since I was a teenager
Its always a pleasure!
The amount of times I keep going back to this project is nutz. I love it so much.
before scary monsters and nice sprites….this is the best album he made! fucking dope!
Still 2020 baby
the intro is so gorgeous skrillz
At first, I thougt this would be Skrillex's last release. I'm so glad it's not!!!!!
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
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.
Skrillex is so amazing the songs made me think hes actually leaving.
uWu
i think its "leaving, just a part of living"
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.
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.
why does leaving bring me to my happy place????
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
He's changing dubstep once AGAIN. This guy is an innovator.
I couldn't find this album in Spotify. So this video is very good. :)
I love his raggeae-style stuff.
The Mastering is brilliantly made
Oh gawd this still bring memories.. 🖤
So much memories 🥰
Back here at 2024. Gem 💎
So, he left us
So many memories
2021?
The reason that bolly is so scory, is because he is leaving.
The Reason I'm leaving is Scary Bolly Dub. Seems legit xd
Still listening in 2023
2023 and smiling
this album is not on itunes
I want to buy it but it's not on iTunes still I subscribed to the nest today hopefully I get it
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.
much respect to sonny for doin his thing :-) love the music.

Thank You! Someone gets it!
Thank Celestia! I need one
What's the name of the font which is displaying the name of the song?
"Leaving" and "Kill Everybody" are the only things by Skrillex that I have ever liked.
Jan 3rd or 4th, 2013 is when the Leaving EP came out.
Real Burial vibes on a couple of these tracks... good stuff :)
I liked this EP most than the last album
Honestly his best work
I personally love them all
The reason is still my No.1 track
This is pure skrillex
Yes, Skrillex will start lets-playing? nice!
thank u !!

The Reason is just so Skrillex. Catchy as hell too. Who else knows what I mean?
Scary bolly dub = best song ever
I listen to this shit almost every fucking day
Ahh, I had noticed that after I had commented that, but it was close enough for me.
Holy balls this put me in the mood to rage in my room cleaning it .
Interested

ep's is only about 3-4 songs
I fucking love this album, what're you talking about?
2021 my dudes
Such a good album!
Anyone still have the old iPad?
Wizard .. Wizard...Wizard .. Wizard...
Skrillex released in it early January...
Extended Play* Longer than a song, shorter than an album.
The Scary Bolly Dub HAs Scary MOnsters And Nice Sprites In It :)
mad underrated
By definition, an EP cannot be called an album.
j'ai ris, merci !
to whether this is the best song of skrillex do not think that the best song for me is to get up to the singing with korn
11 years sheesh
