Rockstar Games and NTS Radio have created a way to revisit the sounds that permanently shaped many of our music tastes. In celebration of the developer’s recently released Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, the world-renowned music hub hosted one mix from each of the three games. Titled “The Sound of GTA,” the mixes consist of music from Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and are presented by Show Me The Body, Scratcha DVA, and Paris Aden respectively.

After Skrillex was recently announced as one of the performers at the 24-hour radio takeover event Remote Utopias, the EDM world went into a frenzy. Skrillex has hosted a few livestreams over the course of the pandemic, but they were more geared towards interaction with his fans and fellow producers as opposed to a full-blown DJ set.
