Skrillex's record label, OWSLA, hosted its own stage at Australian touring electronic music festival, Stereosonic, at the end of December 2014. They decided to put together a recap video of what happened down under in the studio for the Triple J mixes, on stage during various sets and of Skrillex "interviewing" some of his friends. The video is stacked with guest appearances from artists who are loosely affiliated with OWSLA or Skrillex in some way like Diplo, DJ Snake, Foreign Beggers, RL Grime and others.
The video cuts back and forth between clips of Diplo, What So Not, RL Grime and Skrillex in the Triple J studios taking over for four hours of back-to-back sets. Skrillex interviews What So Not about his influences using a water bottle as a microphone, discussing the track "Africa" by iconic '80s band Toto, foreshadowing their time in the studio together last month.
There are, of course, plenty of clips of the crowd having a blast and DJs doing their thing behind the decks.
The label's Stereosonic stage hosted Noisia, What So Not, Foreign Beggars, Crookers, Jack Beats, Alex Metric and Nick Thayer. It was present on four of the five tour dates in Sydney, Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane.
