Skrillex has released a surprise new album titled SOMA, continuing one of the most active creative runs of his career.
The 13-track project arrived on June 5, 2026, with collaborations across the full tracklist, including names such as Nitepunk, Blawan, Randomer, MC Dricka, Tracey, ISOxo, Chris Lake, Young Miko, Naisha, BEAM, Feid, RHR, Anita B Queen, and more.
A new chapter in Skrillex’s current era
SOMA lands shortly after a highly productive period for Skrillex. In 2025, he released FCK U SKRILLEX YOU THINK UR ANDY WARHOL BUT UR NOT!! <3*, a chaotic and heavily discussed project that marked another sharp turn in his sound. Since then, he followed it with EPs including Hit Me Where It Hurts X and Kora, keeping his output moving at a pace few major electronic artists can match.
But SOMA feels less like a random drop and more like a focused snapshot of where Skrillex is right now: bass-heavy, global, collaborative, and still willing to break his own formula.
Across the album, Skrillex connects different club languages rather than staying inside one safe electronic lane. Tracks such as Thistle bring together Randomer, Blawan, and MC Dricka, pushing toward a harder, industrial club edge. Smoke with ISOxo, Cristale, and TeeZandos carries the high-pressure energy of modern bass and rap-influenced club music, while Duro with Young Miko adds a Latin crossover angle that already gained attention before the album’s full release.
Every track is built around collaboration
One of the most interesting things about SOMA is that every track features collaborators. That makes the album feel less like a traditional solo statement and more like a map of Skrillex’s current musical network.
The tracklist includes Soma with Nitepunk, Tranki with Tracey, Taichu and Anita B Queen, Noche Without You with Feid, É o Bonde with Chris Lake and RHR, Anybody with ISOxo, and Diwali with Naisha and BEAM.
This approach fits Skrillex’s wider role in electronic music today. He is no longer only operating as the face of American dubstep or festival bass. He has become a connector between underground club sounds, Latin music, UK energy, Brazilian funk influences, experimental bass, and mainstream electronic culture.
Why SOMA matters
For a producer with Skrillex’s history, a new album is never just another release. It always says something about the direction of electronic music around him.
SOMA shows an artist who is still treating the studio like a testing ground. Instead of chasing nostalgia or trying to recreate the early 2010s sound that made him famous, Skrillex is building around movement, collaboration, and club pressure.
The album also arrives around his Primavera Sound 2026 appearance, where he is set to perform and curate a 12-hour stage lineup at the festival’s Cupra Pulse stage in Barcelona. That timing matters because SOMA sounds built for the festival circuit, but not in a predictable big-room way. It feels designed for modern crowds who move between techno, bass, Latin club music, rap, and left-field electronic sounds without needing those scenes to be separated.

Final thoughts
SOMA is another reminder that Skrillex’s strongest weapon is not just sound design. It is his ability to read where club music is moving before it becomes obvious.
The album is fast, restless, collaborative, and global in its references. More importantly, it proves that Skrillex is still refusing to sit comfortably inside the legacy he already built.
For electronic music, that is exactly why a new Skrillex project still matters.
