* ScaryMusicianHarmlessMusic: Inverted. At first glance, looks like a pretty average, run-of-the-mill DJ, and is an all-around NiceGuy to match. A closer look into his discography, however, and you'll find some of the heaviest, most brutal music ever conceived.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* UpToEleven: He already took dubstep to its utmost extremes since he first came out in 2007. When heavier and more abrasive dubstep became popular in the early 2010’s, he made his output ''even harsher and louder than before''. Hell, he may even approach ''[[Music/{{Merzbow}} Venereology]]'' territory if he keeps up this trend.

* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: The highest dubstep artist on the scale, and possibly the highest electronic artist in ''general'' on the scale discounting HarshNoise artists. The vast majority of his output resides at a solid/hard '''11''', very rarely dropping below a 10. Oddly for such an artist, though, he's done his fair share of softer melodic material, and when he does go soft, he ''really'' goes for it, as evidenced by tunes such as "Drowning" and "With You".

Fixed the hilariously wrong interpretation of the opening narration.


-> ''"Widespread reports of the infectious "X virus" are pouring in, as people around the world are beginning to panic. Medical experts have informed us that alteration of human DNA has led to the creation of an entirely new type of virus. This "X virus" is somehow able to spread through soundwaves, rearranging and permanently modifying humans on a cellular level. By creating auditory and digital hallucinations, it starts with seemingly random charges of ecstasy, until slowly, the infected begin to lose the ability to understand language. You may begin to feel disoriented as cells become more distorted and volume increases. Your body begins to vibrate. Time slows down, as priority disappears."''

* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: The hardest dubstep artist on the scale, averaging at a solid/hard '''[[UpToEleven 11]]'''. He does, albeit rarely, go softer than usual, though his softest work is still no lower than a hard 10/borderline 11.

He is also known for his [[GreatBallsOfFire flashy and multicolored live shows]], complete with highly advanced and powerful sound systems. He has his own custom stage for showcasing these: the Executioner stage, a sound system with a power of ''150 thousand watts'', giving an ear-splittingly loud yet crystal clear sound, almost akin to his studio recording, as well as its succesor the Paradox stage.
