Zomboy ripping off Skrillex... or the other way around ?!


First of all, listen to both tracks:





Here's what Zomboy has to say:

I wrote Terror Squad completely unknowing of Skrill’s song, or so i thought… last year I was at Sonny’s place in L.A with a few other people and while he was playing us previews of his album ideas, I fear i may have subconsciously held onto the vibe of ‘DJ Tool’ which may be why i had the idea in my head, but hand on heart, it was not aimed to be a rip.

If you listen to the original leak there are only loose similarities to terror squad, but the new version fully mimics my drop which is hilarious, flattering, and a little bit embarrassing all at the same time, but hey as the man says - 'All is Fair'

There is no beef between Sonny and I and as you probably know he is literally the sole reason i started writing electronic music…. even the fact that he bothered to do what he has done with his new song is an honour in itself.

The important words at play here are ‘FAIR’ and ’LOVE. If you don’t believe me then you can hear it straight from Sonny himself…

Here's what Skillex has to say on twitter:


What do you think?

  1. Amazed zomboy piped up and tried to spin us one last time that it was his.

    He could have walked away with acknowledgement and friendship from skrillex,

    but instead said something nochalant about it being flattered?
    and what does he mean when he says embarrassing?
