​Björk plays a surprise DJ set at her former school's dance

The Icelandic superstar's alma matter gets a rare DJ performance

Last week, Icelandic electronic music pioneer and former Mixmag cover star Björk showed up to her alma matter's school dance to deliver a surprise DJ set.

A far cry from your typical gymnasium school dance, Björk opted out of songs like 'The Cha Cha Slide' and 'Get Low' and decided to throw down adventurous tunes like 'Guillotine' by Death Grips. A student captured that particular moment and posted it on Twitter. Check out the video below.

Björk made a stunning cover mix with a tracklist that features some of the most cutting edge and innovative artists in the game for her back in November of 2017. It is one of the most powerful and unique cover mixes we've ever done. Check it out below

The artist's new stage concert, 'Cornucopia' - which she has called "her most elaborate live show to date" - will debut in New York City this April at new Manhattan venue, The Shed. Learn more here.
