Skrillex The young electronica producer Skrillex is as divisive as they get, with fans flinging themselves at the feet of his skittish, bass-heavy tracks, while detractors deem him “bro-step” and mock his side-swept goth haircut. But over a rash of purposefully smallish club shows in L.A. he’ll underline the one thing everyone can agree on — he is really, really popular and entirely embodies this moment in dance music. Hollywood Palladium, 6215 Sunset Blvd., L.A. 9 p.m. $53.50. https://www.livenation.com.
