“It feels amazing to have won our first Grammy,” said Nero. “’Promises’ has been a huge record for us, and it’s incredible to have it recognized with a Grammy. We’ve been close friends with Skrillex for a long-time, he’s a singular talent. It was great to work together, to combine the Nero and Skrillex sounds, and make a unique remix that really connected with fans.”
The Skrillex/Nero remix of ‘Promises’ was released on the deluxe re-package of Nero’s debut album Welcome Reality+ (CherryTree/Interscope). Nero is currently working on their follow-up album, and will be releasing the first single from it in the next two months.
