Dance Moves: Skrillex, 2hollis, PinkPantheress & More Debut on Dance Charts With New Projects

Billboard’s Dance Moves roundup serves as a guide to the biggest movers and shakers across Billboard’s many dance charts — new No. 1s, new top 10s, first-timers and more.

This week on charts dated April 19, Skrillex, 2hollis, PinkPantheress and others achieve new feats. Check out key movers below.

Skrillex

The influential DJ-producer dropped his fourth studio album, F*CK U SKRILLEX YOU THINK UR ANDY WARHOL BUT UR NOT!! <3, on April 1 amid Billboard‘s Friday-Thursday (March 28-April 3) chart tracking week. The 34-cut set debuted at No. 4 on Top Dance Albums and No. 124 on the Billboard 200 on the April 12-dated charts after just three days of tracking with 11,000 equivalent album units earned, according to Luminate. Following its first full week of tracking (April 4-10, for the latest charts dated April 19), the set rises to No. 3 on Top Dance Albums and No. 69 on the Billboard 200 with 14,000 units.

The project is Skrillex’s eighth career entry on Top Dance Albums and seventh on the Billboard 200. Here’s a look at his history on the former:

Peak Position, Title, Peak Date:

Skrillex concurrently debuts five tracks from the new album on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs: “Voltage” (No. 11); “Spitfire,” with HAWAII SLIM (No. 18); “Recovery,” with Space Laces (No. 21); “Andy” (No. 22); and “While You Were Sleeping VIP,” with Virtual Riot and Nakeesha (No. 25). He has charted 69 total entries on the chart, fourth-best after only David Guetta (94), Marshmello (75) and Kygo (70).

Before Billboard launched Hot Dance/Electronic Songs on Jan. 26, 2013, Skrillex logged four songs on the Billboard Hot 100: “First of the Year (Equinox)” (No. 85 peak in January 2012); “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” (No. 69, 2012); “Kyoto,” featuring Sirah (No. 74, 2012); and “Bangarang” (No. 72, 2012). “Bangarang” also reached No. 19 on Dance/Mix Show Airplay. (He has added six Hot 100 entries since.)

Thanks to their guest appearances, HAWAII SLIM and Nakeesha both score their first Billboard chart hits. Space Laces tallies his fourth entry on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, after “Destroid 1 Raise Your Fist,” with Excision and Downlink (No. 50 peak in 2013), and two collaborations with Marshmello in 2024: “Conquer” and “Rave Repeater” (Nos. 25 and 36, respectively). Virtual Riot makes his first Billboard chart visit in nine years, since his EP Chemistry reached No. 20 on Top Dance Albums in 2016.

F*CK U SKRILLEX is comprised of 34 tracks, 11 of which are less than one minute in length. The opening track notes that the album is best listened to from start to finish, as it plays at 46 minutes long as a continuous mix. It has more than two dozen collaborators, including Bibi Bourelly, Boys Noize, Dylan Brady of 100 gecs, G Jones, Jónsi of Sigur Rós and Wuki.

2hollis

The Los Angeles-based artist debuts on Billboard’s album charts for the first time with his new LP, Star. Released April 4 on Interscope Records as his major-label debut, the set arrives at No. 11 on Top Dance Albums (5,000 units). 2hollis had appeared on Billboard’s charts once before this week: on Oct. 19, 2024, “Gold” (which is included on Star) debuted and peaked at No. 31 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs. He also reached No. 26 on the now-defunct TikTok Billboard Top 50 in November with “Jeans.”

2hollis served as the opening act for Ken Carson’s The Chaos Tour last year. He performed at Coachella last weekend and is slated to perform at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza Chicago and Outside Lands.

PinkPantheress

The multifaceted singer-songwriter-producer returns to Billboard’s charts with her new single “Tonight.” Released April 4 via Parlophone/Warner Records, the song debuts at No. 5 on Hot Dance/Pop Songs with 3.6 million U.S. streams in its first week. “Tonight” is the lead single off her upcoming second mixtape, Fancy That, due May 9.

PinkPantheress previously charted two tracks on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs: “Way Back” with Skrillex and Trippie Redd reached No. 13 in January 2023, and Kaytranada’s “Snap My Finger” featuring PinkPantheress hit No. 40 last June. Her breakthrough collaboration with Ice Spice, “Boy’s a Liar, Pt. 2,” climbed to No. 3 on the Hot 100 in March 2023 and also spent a week at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart.

Rudimental & Khalid

Rudimental and Khalid’s new collaboration, “All I Know,” debuts at No. 17 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs thanks almost entirely to its streaming sum: 958,000 in its first week, after it arrived April 4 via Rudimental/Room Two Recordings. The song earns British trio Rudimental its eighth entry on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, and first since “Waterslides,” with Tiësto and Absolutely, last year. Notably, Rudimental appeared on the inaugural Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart in 2013 with “Feel the Love,” featuring John Newman. “All I Know” earns Khalid his seventh entry on the chart, and first since “The Hard Way,” with Pnau, in 2023.

Layton Giordani, Linney & Sarah de Warren

All three artists debut at No. 34 on Billboard’s Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart with their collaboration “Act of God.” Layton Giordani and Sarah de Warren claim their first-ever Billboard chart appearances and Linney her second, after her team-up with Tritonal, “Electric Kids,” in 2020 (No. 32 peak on Dance/Mix Show Airplay). Released Jan. 24 on Experts Only, “Act of God” arrives thanks to a 70% increase in plays (among 24/7 dance reporters and pop stations’ mix show hours).

Giordani hails from New York City, with his catalog centered on techno music. He has released two full-length albums: Where It Begins in 2017, and New Generation in 2020. He has collaborated with Anyma, deadmau5, Dom Dolla and Oliver Heldens, among others.

Singer-songwriters Linney and de Warren have both lent their voices to other dance/electronic tracks. Linney has been releasing music for more than a decade and dropped her latest EP, We Dance (via Helix Records), in September. Warren’s catalog also stretches back that long and includes collaborations with the likes of Hardwell, HI-LO and Weird Genius.
