Skrillex teams up with rising star ISOxo for ‘Fuze’, a thunderous collaboration that merges nostalgia with next-generation sound design. Released through OWSLA, the record bridges two eras of bass music while pushing the genre into new creative territory. Let’s take a deeper look!
About the Track
‘Fuze’ begins with a melodic and emotional intro that immediately draws the listener in. A soft keyboard melody builds the foundation as gentle, processed vocals float across the mix. Soon after, a shimmering synth arrives, expanding the atmosphere with warmth and emphasizing the beautiful melody.
Gradually, the energy rises. A deep bass begins to pulse, signaling the arrival of the dubstep chaos that defines the drop. When it hits, the track explodes with classic Skrillex power. The sound recalls his early dubstep roots while feeling refreshed by ISOxo for 2025. Fans will instantly recognize the nostalgic “OMG” sample from ‘Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites’, cleverly re imagined here as a tribute to the past.
The song then transitions smoothly into a groove-driven rhythm. Tight percussion and heavy sub-bass maintain intensity while offering a brief reprieve before the second drop. The next build teases a drop with a clever “fakeout”, a move that creates anticipation and excitement. The final drop lands harder, richer, and more dynamic than the first. It’s the kind of controlled chaos that defines Skrillex and ISOxo fuzed style and cements its status as a staple in modern dubstep.
Skrillex
Skrillex, born Sonny Moore, has shaped the sound of electronic music for over a decade. He began as the lead singer of From First to Last before launching his solo career in 2010. His breakout EP Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites changed dance music forever, earning global acclaim and multiple Grammy Awards.
Over the years, he has collaborated with Justin Bieber, Diplo, FKA Twigs, and even members of The Doors. Known for his bold experimentation, Skrillex continues to expand his reach across genres. With ‘Fuze’, he revisits the sound that made him a household name while proving his creative evolution is still in motion.
ISOxo
ISOxo, the San Diego-born producer shaking up the bass scene, represents the next wave of artists. His rise began with standout releases like ‘Ground’ and ‘Radial’, followed by his acclaimed ‘Nightrealm’ EP in 2021. The project gained support from heavyweights such as RL Grime, Skrillex, and Alison Wonderland.
His headline debut sold out within hours, with performances at Hard Summer and Brownies & Lemonade showcasing his energetic stage presence. ‘Fuze’ reflects how his influence has grown and is now collaborating with one of the most famous EDM artist in the industry.
