Local DJ Greg Skidmore has a new mix up here. It's a gut-wrenching journey through some of electro's crunchiest, darkest realms, with side trips into merciless dubstep alleys. The mix's title—Desperate Measures—reflects the overall atmosphere of this 23-track lesson in highbrow, low-end, electro brutality. The segues are seamless and the selections impeccable: typical Skidmore quality.

Regarding the tenor of the tracks, Skidmore says, "The music within reflects my emotional impression of our global socio-political climate. While it's not a call to action, the energy expressed by these artists is therapeutic and affirming."
