Can't say we disagree... After Beyonce won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Halo" at last night's Grammy Awards, Diplo took to his Twitter account to leak a cover of the winning song by Major Lazer and Elephant Man. Ever the comedian, the track lists "Diplo shoulda won grammy" as the artist when opened in iTunes. Check it out for yourself: Major Lazer featuring Elephant Man - "Halo" (click to download) http://hificartel.com/audio/HA LO.mp3 Related News: [...]
While you were busy swooning over Lady Gaga and Elton John combining pianic-forces, or maybe you were trying to decode the extreme censorship of Eminem, Lil' Wayne and Drake's show-closing performance, someone was busy keeping me Grammy-entertained through twitter. One half of the Major Lazer duo, Diplo , kept me abreast with winners, losers and general shenanigans during the telecast of the 52nd [...]
Major Lazer - “Halo (feat. Elephant Man)” No one from Tuneage got invited to the GRAMMYs (although our friends at Tumblr did ), but we watched with great interest as Beyoncé and her breasts accepted the best female pop vocal performance award for “Halo.” We listened with even greater interest when Diplo tweeted from the after-party about Major Lazer’s version, featuring Elephant Man. In his own words, “SoOO MUCH BETTER!” Expect this one to be everywhere by midday. And if you liked that, you’ll love Major Lazer’s June [...]
We were sleeping while Diplo was partying at the Grammys where he tweeted about this Major Lazer featuring Elephant Man cover of that Beyonce smash hit "Halo". Major Lazer (ft. Elephant Man) - Halo (Beyonce cover) (direct link)
Major Lazer , for creative purposes, is a Jamaican commando who survived the secret zombie war of 1984 and jaunts across the world from dancehall to dancehall killing the undead and dance enthusiasts alike. And if that kind of absurdity sounds like your cup of tea, then you can catch the major when he goes on tour this Spring. Of course, the project is actually the brainchild of masterminds Diplo and Switcth . Their debut, Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do , took a [...]
With one-half of Major Lazer at the helm (in the form of Switch), hours MC'd by the rare and dangerous Skerrit Bwoy and an opening set from the queen of Trouble & Bass, Star Eyes, Friday night's Girls & Boys...
Switch needs no introduction, but nonetheless, I'll give you the basis. UK-based producer Switch is a member of the Mad Decent family, one half of Major Lazer alongside Diplo , co-label owner of Counterfeet with Sinden and sole owner of his own imprint, Dubsided . His style starts at fidget house but spans the spectrum, landing in and around anything that's good and glitchy. Switch plays Smart Bar this Saturday, January 16 with support from Santiago and Sexual Chocolate and we're [...]

Happy New Year from Dipped in Dollars! 2010 couldn't have come fast enough. Major Lazer 's Guns Don't Kill People...Lazers Do was another one of my favorite albums of 2k9, and their remix contest over at Mad Decent resulted in some of finest reworks/videos of the year. I usually only throw out three at a time, but there are just too many goodies to go around. Hope you enjoy these as much as I have. Major Lazer - Hold The Line (Frikstailers Remix) [...]
Last June, Major Lazer exploded on the international music scene with their debut album, Guns Don’t Kill People, Lazers Do . 2009 was a big year for Major Lazer – they were nominated for two MTV awards, headlined multiple tours (including a star-studded performance at Hard NYC), and brought their reggae-tinged sound to dance floors around the world. Their third single, “Pon de Floor” enjoyed quite a bit of club play at all of our favorite parties, and even crossed over to the mainstream when it was used on the season finale of So You [...]
This one comes via the beautiful people over at Disturbed Beats and reminds me why I am in love with DJ Zinc's Crack House mix series. Packed full of absolute bangers, just like its predecessors, this epic includes tracks from Zinc himself, 8-bit, Major Lazer, Vato Gonzalez, Diplo, Geeneus and of whole damn sack of others. The best drop is just over 16 minutes in, it'll make your baubles jingle... I guess this is where I'd usually say I've posted the track listing after the jump, but I can't find it anywhere; it's hidden! If you [...]
Filed under: News , New Music , Exclusive Major Lazer is out to mess with your head. The new video for the dynamic duo's club cut 'Keep It Goin' Louder' features a bevy of grotesquely distorted girls jiggling along to the song and generally having a good time. The clip has been turning heads, not to mention a few stomachs. "We wanted to do something that was hard to look at," Major Lazer's Diplo tells Spinner. "The whole idea was to [...]
It has been a full year since the BOTR series graced this humble page. And I do apologize. I apologize. But it is far better to apologize than to eulogize. And in the end it is far better to actually post music than to take months off (sorry mates, but deadlines at work and real life adventures are simply dominating my time). I started this series, and the BOTM series, because in my previous life I had much more free time than anyone else on the face of the planet. Literally. Well since then I landed a fairly [...]
Here's an interesting interview conducted by CTRL (a Top Man yokey) with Diplo where he reveals he is working with Rolo Tomassi, Sleigh Bells and Lil Jon, his love of metal and the artists that are doing it for him right now. CTRL have also given me a t-shirt designed by Diplo to giveaway. There were only 50 of these made. You can see the design of it here . It was no doubt inspired by Diplo's constant hand sign in photos . Drop me a mail on freebies@nialler9.com with [...]
It's the start of a brand new week, Muusers...why not start off with a bang? TOPMAN CTRL is the musical offshoot of my favorite menswear store, TOPSHOP. Each month, one UK act is invited to take full control of CTRL's website and organize a live show, complete with all the musical acts the artist of the month is currently digging. This month's artist is the multi-talented (and rather cute) producer and DJ, Diplo , responsible for many tracks for M.I.A. , Santigold and Amanda Blank , as well [...]
Mi bajista más querido, el más sucio amante de la psicodelia y los copetes engrasados, tuvo a bien recomendarme este divertido video de Major Lazer , equipo conformado por Diplo y Switch. Este 2009, lanzaron su álbum debut, titulado Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do, de donde se desprende "Pon de Floor" (colabora Vybz Kartel y Afrojack). Disfruten.
