New Music Recommendations

The god himself, Skrillex, dropped the most high energy and absurd record ever. Apparently named after something an unknown vandal spray painted on his studio walls, ‘F*CK U SKRILLEX YOU THINK UR ANDY WARHOL BUT UR NOT!! <3’, was a surprise drop including THIRTY FOUR tracks and clocking in at only 46ish minutes. Also apparently, many of these tracks are IDs that Skrillex had been performing live over the years but never released. If you can’t have fun listening to this record, you might be a curmudgeon. FFO: NERO, SOFI, Rezz, RL Grime, Boys Noize, NGHTMRE.
