By now, we’re probably all familiar with Fred again.. He’s earned plenty of respect as a cracking DJ, and he really blew up in 2022. Skrillex is another name you’ll likely be familiar with, as is Four Tet.
All three killer producers joined forces and put on three last-minute secret London shows last week at Electric Ballroom in Camden on the 5th of January, Brixton Electric on the 6th, and Troxy in Stepney on the 7th. In this string of secret shows, Troxy is the biggest venue the three performed at, with a capacity of around 3,000.
And all again..

All secret shows were confirmed on London-based promoters Eat Your Own Ears’ Twitter account. Naturally, the shows sold out in seconds, with everyone dying to catch a glimpse of these huge producers tearing it up on the decks for a few hours.
The shows went down just after the release of the tune Rumble on the 4th of January, a track by Skrillex, Fred again.., and Flowdan, a tune Skrillex said Four Tet was “kicked off” in an interview. Four Tet and Fred again.. also collabed on the tune Jungle, a track that’s been everywhere since its release.
If nothing else, these shows have proved that these three can pack out a show. But we’re hoping it’s an indication that the three may have been working on some music together besides Rumble. We guess we’ll find out soon enough…
