Sonny Moore, known to most as Skrillex, has always been one who preaches about the positivity found in dance music, even when he was enemy No. 1 for many dubstep fans as he first became popular. The star DJ and producer performed at the Solaris Festival in Toronto, Canada, and turned down the music to give an inspiring speech on love and acceptance and his vision for dance music in 2015.
