Sick and tired of all those Christmas songs you've been hearing everywhere? I'm not. Who does? You only hear them during Christmas anyway! But here I have something different with new music from Skrillex and the release of his latest EP, Bangarang.

Not sure if its still highly anticipated considering people are starting to get sick and tired of his music because it's starting to become mainstream (overplayed). But it does feature some sick collaborations like Ellie Goulding, The Doors and Wolfgang Gartner which made him Grammy nominee worthy. He promises that the album will demonstrate his growth as an artist so why not give it a shot, right? Bangarang EP available via Beatport.

Check out a cut from the new EP after the jump.

RE:GENERATION, a new film by director Amir Bar Lev that pairs together five popular producers with artists from five different generations. Other collaborations include Pretty Lights with Leann Rimes and Ralph Stanley, Nas and DJ Premier with the Berklee School of Music Orchestra, The Crystal Method with Martha Reeves, and Mark Ronson, Mos Def, and Erykah Badu with members of the Dap Kings and Trombone Shorty. The film is scheduled to debut in early 2012 as part of Grammy's Week (via COS).

Here is an interesting collaboration for everyone's taste. A team-up most controversial that it is already stirring the pot even before the actual release of the film. Remaining original members of The Doors team-up with original dubstep juggernaut, Skrillex, for this RE:GENERATION production. I'm not so sure with this one. Some say they killed it, some say it's murder, others say it's only just a song. So whatever the verdict is, I'm still watching the film.
