Diplo deutet ein neues Jack Ü Album für 2016 an

Am 30. Dezember 2015 äußerte der US-amerikanische Produzent Diplo via Facebook seine Wertschätzung für seine größte Inspiration Skrillex innerhalb einer speziellen Ode. In dieser besonderen Gedichtform beschreibt er zunächst wie die beiden sich erstmalig trafen. Des Weiteren beschreibt er Sonny Moore als Mann, der unabhängig von Ruhm und Reichtum arbeitet, und von einer scheinbar endlosen Kreativität angetrieben wird. Außerdem entgegnete er, dass Jack Ü zweifellos das größte Projekt des Produzenten sei und ergänzte, ganz zur Freude der Fans, saftige Hinweise auf ein bevorstehendes, neues Jack Ü Album in 2016.

Hier einmal für euch das originale Statement von Diplo via Facebook:

„It was a big year for both of us but really no one inspires me more than Skrillex. You might know him as the DJ god around the world but when I met him he was still living in the Kyoto Grand Hotel and working day and night perfecting a sound. Everything he has done was like something uncharted and we had a mutual respect for each other. We always learned from one another and we're always pushing to be one step ahead. I've seen him become the biggest DJ in the world and he did it on his own terms. He always thinks about his squad and keeps it DIY and punk at the same time. That is not easy...it's nearly impossible. Even though we had drasticly different sounds behind the scenes we have a similar hunger and I still get motivated every time we go in the studio. We both had a tough year in parts and I think both of us are gonna go even harder in 2016. Hopefully we finish a new album that is gonna break through even further. - Diplo”
