Colossal synths combine with a pure dubstep drop on Designer Drugs new collaboration with Alvin Risk.

Alvin Risk has come out of hiding with a preview of his first original track since the release of his Infinity EP last April. Entitled ‘SKYCLAD,’ the single will be released via OWSLA on March 5th.

Monsta previewed yet another track off of his upcoming EP today, a remix of ‘Messiah’ with basshead Alvin Risk at the wheel.
