During his three secret gigs in London, Skrillex teased more unheard music, saying in January that his recent hiatus from the music industry was due to 2022 being “the toughest year of my life” when he “felt no motivation and purpose for the first time.”
“For the first time in 4-5 years I have found a new sense of peace. It took so much work and sacrifice to get here,” he added.
“The support you’ve all shown over the years means a lot to the world and I’ll continue to work on myself and not end up in a situation where I have to cancel / abscond shows.”
