Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites is the second EP by electro house/dance artist Skrillex.
The EP was released for purchase on Beatport on October 22, 2010, and is his first major release since being signed to Deadmau5's label mau5trap Recordings. The EP was an immediate success taking over 8 of the top ten positions on the Beatport home page. Skrillex has revealed in interview that he made this EP in his apartment using a laptop.
A sound clip of Rachael Nedrow's aka speedstackinggirl exclamations are used in the songs "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" and "Rock n' Roll (Will Take You to the Mountain).
The song "Kill EVERYBODY (Bare Noize Remix)" was used in the Uncharted 3 multiplayer beta trailer.
A remix companion & follow-up EP was announced on June 2, 2011, entitled More Monsters and Sprites. It was released on June 7, 2011.
The song "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" was used in a TV Ad for the GoPro Action Camera featuring a Kayak going over a waterfall. The title is a reference to David Bowie's album Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps).

Coming from the dubstep genius Skrillex a.k.a. Sonny Moore. Sonny came from post-hardcore band From First To Last then became a solo artist name Sonny up to the point he changed his name into Skrillex. When I listened to his album that had been released last year, He's evolved from a Techno Electro artist into a Dubstep genre he's very creative and dedicated on music composition. I love the way he drops the bass in each and every song in his album. My most favorite song from the album is "All I Ask of You" this one of a kind house music with a little sip of bass-lines is just so epic, the rest of the song in the album was also good. You will never regret spending money on buying his album.
