Fcukers Premieres New Song “I Like It Like That” on BBC Radio 1
American electronic band Fcukers, consisting of Shannon Wise (vocals) and Jackson Walker Lewis (bass/keyboards/production), premiered a new song “I Like It Like That” on BBC Radio 1's New Music Show with Jack Saunders.
The song is the follow-up to “Play Me”, which was released back in July.
It was written by Ivan Berko, Jackson Walker Lewis, Kenneth Blume, and Shanny Wise. Produced by Jackson Walker Lewis, Shanny Wise, Kenneth Blume, and Ivan Berko.
The accompanying music video was directed by Scott Kiernan.
The band first performed the song at Glastonbury Festival 2025 in June.
Jackson Walker Lewis told Jack Sanders about the best place where they had played the song, “Definitely one of them (Glastonbury Festival). I feel like, but that it's funny. I feel like that's of the new songs we have. We've been playing that in our live show for the longest, and it just feels like it's been, it's been ripping the tip tops off wherever we are.”- He said of UK rave music, “I think for one it was like just growing up, my dad was such like a British music fan from Happy Mondays to the Hacienda scene, and that was kind of like What first got me into dance music, And then just so many of stuff. I mean, obviously, big beat. And all that John, you guys had was the other big thing for me. And then, I did a year abroad at Goldsmiths. I also think it's fascinating how, like, it's always gone back and forth between our countries, like The Chemical Brothers were into the dust, brothers in the US, and then did their thing. And I feel like, there's always been such a great kind of back and forth going on. But love all the British music here.”

Fcukers will support Australian psychedelic music project Tame Impala's tour. The tour kicks off at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY on October 27, 2025.
Jackson Walker Lewis said of the tour, “It's funny, because it was I called my dad when we got the news. And I remember when he first got inner speaker when I was a kid, like when he came home. And I so remember the first time listening to that album, and then going home and we watched the music video to 'Lucidity'. And this is when I was, like, younger, so just being a fan for years. And it's just so crazy. So it's really, I'm stoked.”
