Old Skrillex laptop is featured in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Throughout his iconic career, fans have been as enamored with Skrillex as they are with his laptop and hard drives, which are filled with unreleased mixes, songs, and edits. The impact of his work as an artist has earned one of his earlier laptops a place in one of music’s most revered establishments.

Sitting in Cleveland, OH, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame offers fans an in-depth look at the evolution of rock music and music in general. Littered with memorabilia from some of the most famous names in music, fans enter the building and are instantly transported through time, giving them the chance to see instruments and paraphernalia throughout the decades. As music has continued to evolve, the Hall and its exhibitions have extended beyond rock & roll to include other genres and important figures in music. Amongst the incredible collection is an early laptop from Skrillex.

Fans who have followed all of Skrillex’s career know that he began his musical journey at 15 as the frontman for indie rock outfit From First To Last. He quickly earned acclaim as an icon of the Warped Tour/emo scene before leaving the band due to vocal issues. He quickly pivoted to an electronic format for his next venture, adopting his first name, Sonny, for a short-lived project before diving into the dubstep productions of Skrillex. That shift brought mass acclaim and stardom, further raising his stature as a musical icon. The inclusion of an old laptop of his in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame speaks to the power and influence that he has achieved in his storied career.
