He just pulled out that piano riff outta no where like that line is so iconic

aww, he looked so super nervous when showing them the drum line

the way bro sat down and instantly played that chord progression that literally MADE the song holy shit

2:26 What speed is that, 130? We're at 175😂😂

I love when older artists are very open to the idea of edm music.

It's so funny, when Sonny plays the drop, the Doors all look confused and like they hate it lol

You see the moment where Sonny didn’t object to starting over, I love how he’s smart enough to put his ego to the side and just learn. Also, props to The Doors for noticing and returning the respect.

crazy thing is Jim Morrison spoke about how he saw music in the future.. robotic sounds and everything this song is. wild thing is his band mates were part of it actually happening.

the moment skrilex play that dubstep ,the doors are like "WTF ...."

2:24 "lets go back to square one" man what a lowkey savage lol

I always thought how skrillex came up with the melody for Breakin' a sweat. This was one of those songs for me where i played it for the melody and not for the drop and thought like how much time he would have invested in finding the chords and stuff. Now i see this guy comes in goes "Uh-ha Uh-ha UH-HA.......give me a tempo like this" and lays it down on the spot.......What a LEGEND!!!

Awh Sonny looked so hurt after he showed them his MIDI drums and all he got was “uh huh, uh huh, uh huh.”

Those old school guys are pretty open minded about EDM music. That's amazing.

"What tempo is that, 130?" "Were at 175" LMAOO

That Doors member reacting to Dubstep and his face expression. Imagine how the generation z will react and what faces they will have when they hear the new type of music 50 years from now.

5:32 when that beat drops its clean af

i miss this skrillex

2:16 "uh huh, uh huh, uh huh" skrillex: *fake nervous smile*

2:36 birth of historical tune..

"tomorrow, we'll be working with the doors!" *guy opens door* . . "IT WORKS"

Skrillex "here it comes.." (Drop hits) Doors thinking "I dont want to live on this planet anymore"

Oh man how I miss the old Skrillex

This video never ceases to blow me away. I can't imagine sitting in the studio with the living members of a band like The Doors and making music with them. Props to Sonny for even being able to hold his shit together during this whole process. I mean damn, what a legendary track.

I can't even imagine what this must have felt like. Imagine having to show something so abrasive and new to the scene to someone so seasoned in their own field. And someone most people, including Sonny, think are at a musical genius level. Skrill looked nervous but he handled business and I actually find that this track is aging decently...it's one of my favorites. But I also grew up on The Doors music...so I'm a little biased hahaha.

RIP Ray. In many ways, this song is perhaps special not only to the electronic scene but also in memory of an influential band!

- what speed is that 130? - 175

My man sat down and whipped out the melody of the decade like it was nothing (3:17)

Skrillex is one of the most experimental artists to ever exist, STILL to this day. Ill NEVER forget when this shit came out. Skrillex undoubtedly changed my life in many ways.

Sonny was so nervous when he met The Doors! He's so adorable!! ^-^

0:57 Skrillex’s mom : all right Little skrillex : ba ba baaiet.......

I love how it started as one thing and came out completely different, definitely put a lot of work in this track

Every time I listen to OG skrillex it brings a tear to my eye. I used to have a close friend that loved his music alot. It was one of the key ways we bonded, vibing to his tracks. Miss you homie.

03:01 ''pump the living shit out of it man''... GOOOLLLDDDD!!!! .. im suprised nobody sampled that yet

I miss this Skrillex

At 2:08 his sounds used to have something that producers nowadays can never have...

that drop still sends shivers down my spine. so crisp and full of energy. Skrillex never fails to create masterpieces, even to this day. he is a musical genius

1:07 The good old days when Dubstep was made only with Massive 😂

I never knew Skrillex was the one saying "I'm breakin a sweat" !!!

This is such nostalgia. RIP Ray Manzarek!

ya lo vi como 1000 veces y no me aburro, cómo skrillex fuciona el edm con la música de estas leyendas que son los doors, me dan ganas de llorar lpm

Camera switches off, throws Beats headphones in the bin.

Kinda crazy to realize that Breakin A Sweat was originally supposed to be a drum n bass track. I really liked the sound of that version

It blows my mind that he just sat down on a keyboard and instantly played the chords for the song. Right away

“I make most of my songs in hotel rooms” Hotel guests: wtf’s all that going on? Hotel owner: oh that’s Skrillex, don’t mind him. He likes dubstep.

Skrillex + The doors = *brutal*

Maybe some day, people will realize that unless you're a fucking genius like Sonny really is (on electronic music), it is not as easy as you think. I'm not defending the guy because I like him and his music, but there is so much fucking jealousy, hate and negative shit on EVERYTHING about him. And then there are the people who think music production is from a click of a button (what button exactly?), how bout you guys give it a shot? Let me know how you go. Cheers (:

no shot this was an entire decade ago. I feel so old

One of my favorite Skrillex songs. Goes super hard.

"What speed is that, 130?" "We're at 175" I think the doors have slightly rusty hinges..

3:44 this dnb part is awesome

It is 2023, why does time flies so faaast smh.. I want a time machine. I remember when this song was new on the KZfaq recommended screen.

2:08, I mean, this drop would've been cool too.

Jim Morrison actually predicted a guy like Skrillex. In the entire interview you can find on youtube ...he talks about the future of music. Says at some point he could see someone alone on stage playing music through a computer or electronic devices. Isn't that unreal and ironic that his bandmates would be a part of that? The future is uncertain and the end is always near ....well ...Jim was very perceptive ..smart intelligent..very surprising to see he wasn't like his media image. He also said in the same interview if you had someone who gave you a lot of money and you went away and secluded yourself to write songs and create an album it probably wouldn't be very relevant. You would be out of touch. I think there are a lot of people out of touch!!!!!

Lol the doors are so confused

11 years ago this track dropped... and it's STILL in my main playlist.

One thing about Skrillex is his ability to put what’s on his mind directly out. Not a similar sound but what he envisioned. There was no walls for his sound.

The doors are like: "thats no music man"

Old Skrillex ;-;

Skrillex: plays beat Robbie: (thinking) What am I supposed to do with that geez this is what the new music sounds like?! I don’t get it Ray: Alright that’s pretty lit fam check it out I wrote this gucci hook that goes perfect with it-FINISHES SONG

2:37 "He gets a little bossy" OMG

It looked like once the doors heard the drop they looked like they had no idea what it was

I didn't know Jonah Hill pretended to be Skrillex, best voice acting 10/10.

First bit seems so tense because you can see, Different generations whom do it a different way. But loved how both sides work together, Skrillex got to do what he's good at and they got to play how they've always played... Well impressive to see him jump on a keyboard and instantly start playing to it that was next level freestyle. Skrillex end product of that track was amazing. Such an inspiring artist, Virtuoso how he seems to project so many styles, Doing something different its never the same...

2:05 was pretty fire and deserves to be its own song in my opinion. lol

LOL 2:08 The Doors are not amused by that drop

If you really think about it, Skrillex came in with this made up drum track. Ray comes and says "give me a tempo like this" and that right there MADE the track. Wouldn't of been as good if they kept it at the original speed.

3:34 That Psychedelic DnB jam just hits different 👌🏽

5:42 can we appreciate the fact that skrillex use motion capture device for his visual sets? also that creature from First Of The Year is breath-taking!!

One of his best songs

Dear Skrillex, Your tight, but put down the cigarette and pick up a joint. Talk about the next level.

2:07 damn he was ahead of his time

It was a good idea to turn down that tempo. Also it's super cool how Skrillex took those sounds from the jam sessions and added his own twists to them. A collaboration in the truest sense

The Doors were like what the hell is this shit? lol

Gotta love the doors. They predicted exactly what music of the future would be like 50 years on. And they made the synth for this track. Awesome band!

I'm 57 and I'm a huge fan of Dubstep and Skrillex. Back in the 90's till 2003 I used to throw Raves in the Pittsburgh and Cleveland area's. I used to favor break beats but Dubstep is so much better. I love this mix. I've been a metalhead since I was 2 and a half years old. I used to have all of the Doors album's. I moved not far away and forgot my huge album collection and my Step-dad threw all of my albums in the trash. This is one of the coolest mixes I've ever heard! Props to Skrillex and the Doors!!❤❤❤

People give Skrillex a lot of flack, and I'm guilty of it too. But you have to admit, this is really frickin cool. Two completely different generations collaborating for an epic tune like this. It's just really cool.

skrillex is a smart guy...

Everybody gangsta until an elder guy craft a sick beat in literally 5 seconds. 2:40

It's cool to see Skrillex did this and doors decided to go along with it. Dubstep was very different and and alot of older people didn't like it. I think they just understood it was music and people are gonna enjoy it so let's have fun and make something.

Am watching this, is so fucking funny in 2:16 Skrillex: Is all basic like this Ray: A ha, a ha, aha, yeah XD

RIP Jim Morrison RIP Ray Manzarek

Edit: I got a lot of hate for giving credit where it was due. Skrillex revolutionized mainstream music and brought electronic music to the big stages. I wasn't talking about the underground UK scene lol. For all of my new visitors: This was 2011. This is pre-dubstep gutter, pre-Skrillex mainstream success, pre-EDM becoming a massive player in the genre field for Western Music (which was caused by the man you see on screen) amongst many other literally ridiculous events. Before Skrillex, EDM was very bare bones, very dry, and club built music. This man is a pioneer in every sense of the word, and is also a hands on musician, mastering many instruments, not just a keyboard. So before you go shitting on "the song being underwhelming" or anything of the sort, keep in mind this man literally revolutionized music in many ways lol.

I love this man and respect perspective of the old sound.

2:09 holy shit you can literally see the disappointment on that dudes face like "what the fuck happened to music"

2:05 the Doors guy in the back chewing on some food starts bobbing his head LOL

That's so cool! This is the first time I've heard Skrillex's voice before, what a great voice! Good on you for being so successful and I wish all the best to you in the future! Love from Canada.

Everytime I trying give up being music producer. I just come and watch this video to just recharge myself.

Was anyone else in like some sort of pre-learning phase with digital music production as well when they first watched this?

"DJs just sit behind a keyboard putting sampled beats together" LOL

It’s the end of 2020 and I’ve watched this at least 50 times now, and it gets better every time

I found this on main page of youtube. All my childhood returns

2:16 Me when someone I hate tries to talk me

Ow god, the old days of Skrillex!!

Talk about a bucket list thing for any artist working with someone like the doors

Grew up listening to your music. Always made me feel like I was in another world. Not escape reality but help coupe with the craziness. Love this video.

the fact that skrillex can do this with only a lap top and an mpd is bad ass.

Skrillex collaborating with the doors was pretty much the most brilliant thing any producer ever did.

"Give me a tempo like this" Little do we know this changed the realm of dubstep for ever!

This album was unheard-of sounds from edm. Really progressing the genre and even going into mainstream sounds with one of the most experiential album's ever.

to be frank, I felt energy through my body when the old man started hitting keys on the keyboard !! all Skrillex drums and bass didn't. those people are Music, adding color may bring them back to the young listeners . their originality and creativity is unmatched.
