The win for “Where Are Ü Now” beat out: Above & Beyond’s “We’re All We Need”, The Chemical Brothers’ “Go”, Flying Lotus’ “Never Catch Me”, and Galantis’ “Runaway (U & I)”. A complete list of Grammy winners can be found here.
This brings Skrillex up to 8 Grammy wins which surpasses electronic music group Daft Punk’s record of 6 Grammy award wins. Can Skrillex keep his award winning streak on a roll with the upcoming Electronic Music Awards and Foundation (EMAF) show airing in April?
