Don't Get Too Close is the third studio album by Skrillex, released in January 2023 on OWSLA / Atlantic and self-produced by Skrillex. Released simultaneously with Quest for Fire as its companion piece, the album is the more melodic and emotionally accessible of the two records, exploring house music, drum-and-bass, and atmospheric electronic pop alongside Skrillex's signature bass music constructions. Collaborations with Bladee, Swae Lee, PinkPantheress, and others show the eclecticism of Skrillex's musical universe in 2023. Together with Quest for Fire, Don't Get Too Close was hailed as a comeback statement that reaffirmed Skrillex's unique position at the intersection of underground experimentation and commercial accessibility. The double-album release strategy itself was a bold artistic gesture that invited listeners to encounter Skrillex in his full creative complexity.
