Last nights Grammy awards had plenty of predictability (Adele swept everything, tears for Whitney Houston) and a couple surprises (Skrillex nabbed best new artist, lots of women want to get beat by Chris Brown). And then there was the much anticipated collaboration with between The Foo Fighters and Deadmau5, who performed the remix of “Rope” which was nominated or Best Remix (Skrillex nabbed that too).

And while only the second half of the tune got the remix treatment (a whole 1:30 seconds), it certainly didn’t offend the sensibilities like some predicted. The producers were even smart enough to dress up some suits in the audience with Mau5heads, showing that they at least understand part of dance music’s current appeal—playing dress up.

As for David Guetta’s widely panned appearance with Lil Wayne and Chris Brown, we’re gonna leave that alone. URB doesn’t endorse men who beat women.
