Before him dubstep was.. Too mellow, I mean they still make it, but the dubstep you hear today is more dancy. And considering I prefer House, I like it better this way. Drumstep, DnB, Electro House, Dubstep, all progressed so much recently, and a lot had to do with people like him. He's inspired a lot of people.
I don't think Skrillex had anything to do with it and in my opinion he's the worst dubstep artist going he over uses the same sounds and doesn't change very much in style. I used to like him then I listened to the likes of Gemini, Flux Pavilion And Dodge and Fuski.

Aight, your opinion. Imo thats a hipster type of thought, just because hes "mainstream" doesnt mean he's bad. Infact, if you look at a lot of those same artists you just said, they use a lot of the same sounds.
Skrillex as an artist/producer is amazing, his record label OWSLA is phenomenal, and has many great artists under it. (you know, as much as an electronic artist can be under one label, which almost never happens, even Skrillex's stuff gets released on other labels) He really knows what he's doing.
Again, just more haters hatin.
I personally prefer Electro-House, which is sorta dubstep/house, the best EDM imo. But, Skrillex always reminds me of Cornerstone, thats just what I listened to a lot back then.
