Skrillex sends new 'FUS’ album to email subscribers

It may be the 1st of April, but it’s not a joke. Skrillex has released new music, sending the audio in an email titled "FUS - FULL ALBUM" to his subscribers. 

Hinting at new music yesterday (31st March) on Instagram, Skrillex fans were over the moon to find out Skrillex, AKA Sonny Moore, wasn’t planning an April Fool's Day gag. Over the last few weeks, Moore has sent several snippets to his mailing list, with the most recent snippet, FUS, sent out last night shortly after his set and listening party at Ultra Music Festival in Miami, Florida.

FUS, which some believe stands for F*** You Skrillex, features a variety of sounds the legendary producer has become known for, including dubstep, trap, techno, and more. 

Currently signed to Atlantic Records, Skrillex vowed late last year to go independent after the release of his next album, saying the industry is “like politics” and that it’s “designed to be almost impossible for I (sic) understand.” FUS may be the final release on the label before he goes independent. 

Skrillex on Twitter/X back in November:

The industry is like politics , it’s designed to be almost impossible for I understand. I’ve seen so man artist get caught up in the illusion and delusion of the business. It’s a dangerous job to be a young artist.
