Last night, Skrillex from L.A., the Grammy award-winning cyborg played at London’s Electric Brixton for After Show following his gig at the O2 Academy Brixton. Alvin Risk and the club’s MC got the crowd feeling rowdy, solidifying a wild cross-section of London’s rave scene into one gyrating mass. At 2 am SebastiAn took the decks, showcasing the darker side of electro- and tech house with tracks like Nero’s remix of ‘C.T.F.O.’ and his own remix of Daft Punk’s ‘Human After All’. And then there was Skrillex…
Considering Sonny had just played a headlining gig at the O2 Academy just a few hours before, his energy on stage was spectacular. It speaks volumes of the kind of dedication an amazing career like his requires – show after show after show after show, while producing and mastering in between gigs, interviews, award shows and after parties. His set was flawless. Violently energetic, tastefully melodic, and seamless in the way he weaved a number of genres into one groundbreaking concert experience. He announced the playback of a new track, possibly a new remix of Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites…
Below are some tracks from his set that really got the crowd going.
