Willy Bensussen, AKA the Gaslamp Killer burst onto the LA scene with his trademark frenetic energy, wild but impeccable taste in records, and unique approach to heavy, heavy beats. Now a certified global phenomenon, GLK still holds down Low End Theory and represents LA worldwide wherever he goes. On September 18th, he will release his first full-length record Breakthrough on Brainfeeder records. The album is being hailed by critics and peers as something truly original and special, a unique trip through the mind of a madman.
But what we really wanted to know, is where does GLK get his tacos. So, Willy, what's your favorite taco?
Taco Zone in Echo Park!
