Re:Generation: The mighty Skrillex makes a cameo

If the Grammys showed us anything this year -- aside from the apparently difficult pronunciation of Bon f'ing Iver -- it was that electronic music is here in a big way.

Now, in association with the awards show, documentarian Amir Bar-Lev introduces a one-night engagement of his film Re:Generation, which explores the musical skills and style of five DJs he sees as most influential today: Skrillex (who won big at the Grammys last weekend), DJ Premier, The Crystal Method, Mark Ronson, and Pretty Lights.

In the film, the five artists choose collaborators and the movie follows their experience in writing and recording the track.

We've got tickets to the show and a link for you to download the soundtrack featuring music by all five artists.

To enter our Re:Generation movie ticket giveaway contest, simply complete these two steps:

1. "Like" us on Facebook, which you can do right here:

2. Leave a comment below telling us which DJ in the film interests you most and why. (Be sure to either sign in using FB or Twitter through our commenting system or use a working email address when you comment, as this is how we will contact our winners. Your contact information will not be used for any other purpose.)

Only those who complete both steps are eligible to win the pair of tickets. We will draw TWO winners at 3 p.m. Thursday (day of show). Your name will be on the list plus 1 at one of the following theaters: AMC 16 Southdale, AMC 14 Rosedale, or Kerasotes West End.

In the meantime:
