Don Diablo’s boundary-breaking alter ego CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ roars into the grime and drum & bass underground with his most daring track yet — “Head Banger”, a collaboration with UK grime heavyweight Scrufizzer. Marking the project’s official debut on the iconic UK platform UKF, the single cements CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ’s place as a serious new voice in the genre’s forward-thinking spaces.
Fusing glitchy vocal cuts, dark cinematic synth stabs, and a relentless bass-fueled drop, “Head Banger” is a head-spinning sonic ride designed for the rave and beyond. Scrufizzer’s rapid-fire delivery punches through the gritty production, making this a standout for both grime and DnB purists. For Don Diablo, CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ isn’t a side project — it’s a full reset. A new creative lane where convention gets deleted, and experimentation leads.
Dropping my first official release on UKF with my brother Scrufizzer, our second record together is a full circle moment! I have always loved the label and their unique sense of community. This one hits harder, faster, and deeper. Don Diablo pres. CONTROL ALT DΞLΞTΞ is just getting started… and I couldn’t be more excited”. — Don Diablo
