I know I'm currently in a two week process of Artist Remixed – Daft Punk, but after Skrillex's EP was just released, there have been a ton of remixes and bootlegs leaking out everywhere. I, personally, am a huge fan of remixes and often prefer them over the original. I love to see how a song can be changed either for the better or worse. So after Skrillex's recent release I went hunting and have found a handful of remixes that I hope will satisfy your milky craving until next Tuesday when I pick back up Artist Remixed – Daft Punk. I do not have enough to compile a full Artist Remixed, so I've simply thrown the remixes below in no particular order. I will tell you though which one is my overall favourite.
Skrillex – "Kyoto" (Spl4sh! Remix)

My favourite remix was YH and Hollidayrain's remix of "Summit". There's a soft intro which takes you quickly into Ellie Goulding singing instead of having her vocals in the second half like the original does. A smooth synth fade out takes you right to the drop which is still gentle but adds a nice melody with some electro house wobbles. A really great remix and worth checking out Holidayrain's Soundcloud page for more of his work which you can do here.
Make sure you go and buy Skrillex's new EP
