I Always DJ Naked is an EP by the house-trio Killers & Rockers, consisting of Swedish DJ Avicii, and the American DJ's Starkillers & Austin Leeds. The EP is the only release by the trio, during to Avicii's rapid success in late 2010. It was released on 19 October 2010 by Ultra Records.[1]
A 2009 studio album, consisting of 12 songs, was cancelled due to contract issues, and later leaked Starkillers following Avicii's death in April 2018.[2] In 2024, yet another song was leaked. Starkillers was later in controversy, following private messages, indicating that he used Avicii's death for personal gain.[3]
Background
[edit]In February 2009, Starkillers (Nick Terranova) and Austin Leeds, made an announcement asking for a new up-and-coming producer to co-produce an album with them. Swedish DJ Avicii (Tim Bergling) reached out to them, and they started to work on an album.[4] They released the EP I Always DJ Naked in October 2010, and they had a 12-song album planned for future release. Due to Bergling's success, following the release of "Bromance", a song which Terranova later claimed he stole,[5] and contract issues, the album was cancelled, and leaked after Bergling's 2018 death.
