Sonny Moore, former lead vocalist of emo band From First to Last and prolific DJ/producer Skrillex, is my favorite musical artist. Although he is best known for his aggressive, chaotic sound, Sonny’s discography is rich with tranquility, positivity, social acceptance, and playfulness -- all of which are characteristics of Sonny himself, by all accounts.

Over the past 7 years of my Skrillex fandom, these tracks have been go-to songs when I’ve needed peace, introspection, or an appreciation of life’s beauty. Plus, you can play them in the house without scaring your parents.
