12th Planet is coming to a city near you!
“Proving once again that 2011 has been a pivotal year for electronic dance music, dubstep — arguably the most niche of the EDM sub-genres in America — now has the support of some of the biggest brands in the world.
After crowning Skrillex the Best EDM Artist of 2011, MTV News is pretty amped to report that a good buddy and collabo partner of Skrilex’s, 12th Planet, is primed to pop as well. In fact, judging by his success in ’11, next year looks to be explosive for the Los Angeles-based dubstep king and SMOG< label frontman.
Not only did 12th Planet embark on a sold-out, 50-date tour of the U.S. alongside Skrill, but the DJ/ producer born John Dadzie also released his Who Are We? EP, and did production work for Korn. Now, 12th has partnered with Scion Audio Visual on a free-for-download EP titled The End Is Near; a tour of the same name will follow in 2012.”- MTV
