Skrillex ft. Sirah – Weekends

Not the kind of track that we’d normally feature here at Alt-UK, but I’m really loving Skrillex’s ‘Weekends‘ right now. Electro house at its very best.

You can currently download the track completely for free from SoundCloud and I’d most definitely recommend that you do so.
