The first 80 minutes saw Skrillex and Diplo take over the decks live as Jack Ü before turning over to a short session from Carmada. RL Grime took over the airwaves next with the aid of Skrillex and their airtime spilled over into What So Not's mix in the last hour of the show.Diplo and Skrillex were just on Triple J the day before to discuss their Jack Ü project and what they had coming up when they mentioned this mix. They said they had no idea what they were going to play, yet they still deliver another outstanding frenetic mix filled with tunes from each artist, their labels and some exclusives as well, via "Dancing Astronaut."

  • Boys Noize Cryptically Hints at Dog Blood Return with Skrillex

    Ever since the end of 2013, Skrillex's attention has turned toward his own career, finishing his album "Recess" and his newly formed duo with Diplo, Jack U.

It simply had the caption "#db." While it is not conclusive that the duo are coming back, especially with how involved they both are with their own work at the moment, it would be about time for Skrillex and Boys Noize to get the band back together to do some shows and make some music, via "Dancing Astronaut."

  • Jack U (Skrillex and Diplo) Release 'Take U There' Featuring Kiesza Music Video [WATCH]

    As they announced on Power 106's "Big Boy's Neighborhood," Skrillex and Diplo have released the music video for their super duo Jack U's debut single "Take U There" alongside must-watch Canadian singer Kiesza. The video is not a big-budget music video you may find from a major-label-signed pop star, but is more of a well-produced do-it-yourself video.It features footage of Jack U performing across the Mad Decent Block Party tour this summer in Los Angeles and Dallas, with clips of the New York show at MCU Park, where "Take U There" was performed with live vocals from Kiesza for the first time. The music video takes a trippy turn with wacky Disclosure — like drawings over their faces and cartoonish animations overlaying the two DJs and singer dancing. You can tell it was pretty DIY when the police stop them for filming the video in the street. It shows the carefree and fun-loving attitude from these three, via "Spin."
