Did Shrillex go by another alias/name previous to his breakthrough?
he went as sonny moore, and (what only few people know) as twipz, but as twipz and sonny moore he never did heavy stuff, or actual bass in general, only after he started skrillex
he played guitar then vocals in from first to last, got kicked because he was high all the time, toured solo, had a project with hollywood undead that I don't remember the name, started doing edm using his own name, then skrillex.

lol, no... not exactly. he wanted to play guitar in from first to last, but the other members heard sonny singing in the studio and made him lead singer. he never was kicked out the band, he left because he got problems with his vocal cords. lol i dont know about anything about hollywood undead. he started doing real slow edm with alot of vocals (my personal favorite bells) under his own name (and 3 tracks under the name twipz, wich he used to tour a bit, also he toured at that time with the bloodmonkey's or something

) he canceled the release of the bells album because he wanted to start more electro music and thats when he was skrillex. he did a few remixes n stuff and songs, released them for free on his myspace page. then he started working on his free ep "my name is skrillex" after that he signed with mau5trap and released the "scary monsters and nice sprites" ep and the rest is history, i hope i didn't forgot anything

bloodmonkeys was the project with hollywood undead, I remember all the emo kids saying that he left because he had a problem with drugs but I also heard of the surgery thing.

lol, i think people think that sonny left FFTL cuz of drugs is because they have a album or something called heroïne, but he left because his vocal cords got damaged from singing

, also he was involved with the mixing of fat off the land by prodigy n stuff

Not that I know of. He messed around with producing before hand whilst he was in FFTL, found a sound, rolled with it and it took off.

he's been fuxing around with edm since his teens, he was in FFTL, then started doing his solo shit under his name Sonny, and then first released equinox and a few others from his solo years on a myspace page under the name Twipz. The only reason I know this is because metalcore was pretty big a handfull of years ago. wasn't a fan of FFTL, but i stumbled on his Twipz myspace.

Here is a link to the Twipz Myspace page. The change in his sound is fucking wild. http://www.myspace.com/twipz

Truly insane. I actually liked the tunes he has on there...liked them quite a bit :O

I've actually been listening to Twipz a lot lately. Look Over At That is so catchy even though most of his songs from then sound about 95% sampled.

can we all agree that his pre-mau5trap stuff is really shitty production-wise though?
like clipping and shit

That's to be expected though, he's got major label backing and presumably their mastering engineers at his disposal now. Compare the Twipz stuff to Bangarang (random tune I know from the gym TV channel before you raise your eyebrows

);

World apart in terms of production values.
