Double up: Five surprising production collaborations we're delighted happened
Teamwork makes the dream work
Skrillex & Diplo
We were respecters and appreciators of the work Skrillex and Diplo had done over the years before teaming up to form Jack Ü, but honestly we weren’t really expecting to enjoy the output of the project when it was announced. It’s always good to have prejudices humbled however, especially when it sounds as good as Jack Ü does. Their second single ‘Where Are Ü Now’ was a masterpiece in crossover dance music. It was fronted with vocals from one of the globe’s biggest popstars in Justin Bieber, while the production he crooned over was perfectly crafted, with intricately warped guitars and thumping bass-powered percussion.
