Bad news music fans! To celebrate the 25th anniversary or Michael Jackson's Bad, Pepsi has enlisted Skrillex, Diplo and A-Trak to remix songs from the King of Pop's 1987 classic. Insert Skrillex hair/Michael Jackson hair fire joke here. Terrible. [Billboard]

While we're at it, The Daily Swarm collected some of Skrillex's "finest tweets," which include "I sound like a bad nickelodeon film," "Home lizard just tried to attack me" and "Poo flinging is always a bad look especially of your'r inherent race isn't monkey." Unfortunately, they missed this gem: "I wish I was aloud to use the n word sometimes (in a non racist way of course)." Did not realize how much Skrillex tweets sound like Anal Cunt song titles. Pretty rad. [DailySwarm]

Having recently collaborated on much-heralded single "Swims," Joy Orbison and Boddika have a new 12" (finally) hitting shelves via their SUNKLOWUN label, "Dun Dun"/"Prone." A snippet from "Dum Dum" leaked a while back, but "Prone" is the one. [SoundCloud]

Really digging the new Julio Bashmore-produced Jessie Ware single "110%," which now has a video. Nice. [YouTube]

Berlin-based techno-funk producer Jimmy Edgar's upcoming Hotflush LP Majenta hits shelves on May 8, and it's pretty great. Stream it here. [ResidentAdvisor]

Not mad at this Teen Daze remix of Giraffage & XXYYXX's "Even Though," off the upcoming Kitsune America comp. [XLR8R]

Finally, check out Kuedo's recent Boiler Room Berlin set. Pretty ill. [BoilerRoom]
