The Next Evolution of Sonny Moore: Skrillex Teases Upcoming Album SOMA

Electronic music pioneer Sonny Moore, globally known as Skrillex, is preparing to shatter boundaries once again. Following a monumental period that saw him transition into a fully independent artist after closing his chapter with Atlantic Records, the producer has officially teased his fifth studio album, titled SOMA.

A New Sonic Chapter: What We Know About SOMA

Derived from the Greek word for “the body,” SOMA promises a dense, 13-track experience designed for the dancefloor and beyond. The upcoming project bridges underground club genres, high-octane bass, and Latin crossover elements.

Highlights from the confirmed tracklist and collaborator lineup include:

  • Heavyweight Collaborations: Features with bass powerhouse ISOxo (“Smoke”, “Anybody”), tech-house icon Chris Lake (“La Noche 2”), and Latin superstars Feid and Young Miko (“Duro”).

  • Genre Blending: Experimental tracks involving underground techno legend Blawan (“Thistle”) alongside Nitepunk (“Soma”).

  • Lead Singles: Preview releases like “Smoke” and “Duro” have already set high expectations for the album’s sound production.

From Independent Drops to Headline Stages

The announcement comes on the heels of Skrillex’s massive 34-track release and headline performances across major global stages. Alongside SOMA, Moore is expanding his ecosystem with Contra, a curated festival event celebrating UK bass, techno, and global club sounds alongside artists like Knock2, Flowdan, and Hamdi.

With no rigid rules constraints slowing him down as an independent creator, Skrillex continues to set the tempo for modern electronic music culture.
