Listen to Skrillex & Diplo’s Mix for ‘Diplo and Friends’

Jack U
 
Skrillex and Diplo’s Jack U project is one the most forward-thinking groups in music right now. When it comes to live sets, the duo not only drops original material but also a wide variety of EDM and hip-hop bangers that align with their bass-centric mission.
 
On Saturday night, Jack U lived up to that reputation by delivering a highly-anticipated mix for BBC Radio 1Xtra’s “Diplo and Friends” show. The two-hour takeover contained plenty of new and exclusive music, including a Jack U track featuring 2 Chainz.

DJcity Exclusive: Jack U ft. Kiesza – Take U There

Jack U
 
Following its radio premier on Zane Lowe’s BBC show earlier today, Jack U’s highly-anticipated debut single “Take U There” is now available to download exclusively on DJcity.
 
For those who don’t know, Jack U is a duo comprised of Diplo and Skrillex that was formed in 2013. Over the last year, the group has received worldwide attention thanks to performances at Ultra Music Festival, HARD Summer and Mad Decent Block Party.
 
Up until today, Jack U hadn’t released any material, although a live recording of “Take U There” has amassed over a million SoundCloud plays since appearing last month.
 
The distinctive 80 BPM track features vocals from Kiesza — a rising singer whose deep house-influenced hit “Hideaway” is climbing charts around the world.

He even put to rest those rumors of being booed off-stage from the iconic Burning Man Festival. Elaborating about his relationship with Diplo, he explains his Jack U duo, plus why him and Ellie Goulding split.

DJ Mustard Talks Opening for Skrillex & Working with Diplo

DJ Mustard
 
DJ Mustard is a rarity in the world of hip-hop producers. Unlike many of his peers who stay behind the scenes and lack consumer awareness, Mustard is signed as a solo artist to an influential label. In some ways, Roc Nation’s strategy for Mustard is akin to that of the EDM world, where producers are expected to perform regularly and build a following. This, along with his ability to crank out infectious hits, might explain why he was invited last month to partake in Skrillex’s upcoming fall tour.
 
As Mustard prepares to hit the road with Skrill next month, Billboard caught up with the Los Angeles superproducer at the Made in America festival last week to discuss working with the OWSLA head and Diplo. Here’s a couple points he touched on that we think are noteworthy:
 
On opening for Skrillex: “Me and Skrillex are gonna be doing a whole lot of shows together and some sh#t like that. I’m ready for that, should be fun . . . Skrillex is dope. He plays everything. It’s amazing what he does.”
 
On producing while on the road: “I’m still in work mode, I’m still going to the studio every night, I’m doing my shows, having fun, rocking crowds, just trying to be the biggest producer in the game.”
 
On working with Diplo: “Me and Diplo actually gonna go in the studio and work on some sh#t too . . . I’m doing some beats for Major Lazer. I met Diplo awhile ago. I did some stuff for Jody Highroller [aka Riff Raff], my boy, and he’s signed to Diplo. Me and Diplo kicked it from there.”
