Diplo and Switch When I first heard Major Lazer ( Hold the Line ), I actually thought it sounded pretty lame, but then Ed introduced me to their greatest track, Pon De Floor . Ed described the track as "this year's Raven". I don't know if that's true, but it's definitely the track of the summer (even though the album is a bit meh). I'm waiting for some decent remixes! Major Lazer - Pon De Floor
Major Lazer (feat. Vybz Kartel) - Pon de Floor A collab between Diplo and Switch, they deliver on something that's right up my alley. Major Lazer is a Jamaican commando who lost his arm in the Secret Zombie War of '84, was given experimental lazer prosthetics as limbs, acts now as a renegade soldier knee deep in black ops and operates in secrecy from the CIA and M5. He runs a dancehall club as a front and protects the world from the forces of darkness all while partying hard on his rocket-powered skateboard. [...]
Major Lazer kicked off their North American tour last night at S.O.B.’s. Looking sharp in matching vests and ties, Diplo and Switch took the stage at around 2 AM, inciting a crazy dance party that ended with everyone on stage. Back from his tour of Asia, A-Trak was once again in the audience, taking in some good music before he hits the road for the Bacardi B-Live Tour (coming to NYC this Wednesday). This collaboration between Diplo and Switch combines their signature electro sound with reggae-inspired beats. Their set had mild dubstep undertones, including a [...]

Highlights include: " Can't Stop Now ," " Keep It Goin' Louder '" (which Sasha Frere-Jones predicts "will dominate strip clubs and St. Tropez troll clubs for a year"), and of course, Auto-tune Baby. In other news, you still have a week to enter to win the Major Lazer vinyl/shirt prizepack . [...]
I'm convinced this is going to be a big, if not the biggest player off the Major Lazer EP coming out in a couple short weeks. Cop the Pre-Order bundle and you even get one of those super dope "Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do" t-shirts. Anyway, Pon Di Floor has got just the right balance of those strange yet catchy sounds (re: autotuned baby?) that Diplo and Switch seem to churn out time and time again... it's fresh 'n throaty. Got a short-caked remix from Victoria's Ernold Sane for [...]
Mad Decent boys Diplo and Switch have always had that irefutable connection to carribean rhythm, and it is this influence which seems to be the catalyst for their newest project, Major Lazer. After jetting over to Jamaica and scouring the streets of Kingston for the freshest talent, the dynamic duo set up base at legendary Tuff Gong Studios to lay down a new dancehall influenced album that will
Awesome video for an awesome tune. Love the action figure touch. Incidentally, Diplo was killing it in Tripod on Sunday.

Este es el video de la canción "Hold The Line" a cargo del proyecto conceptual de Diplo y Switch , dos de los mas grandes productores de música electrónica de los últimos años, en el video se puede ver a un comando Jamaiquino los cuales perdieron sus armas en una guerra en 1984 (como ven la historia del video también es bastante conceptual). La canción tiene algunas vocales incluida la colaboración de Santigold que es muy amiga de estos dos tipos desde que fueron los productores de su tan exitoso disco que ya [...]

The super group of Diplo and Switch along with "a Jamaican commando who lost his arm in the secret Zombie War of 1984 that cruises around on a rocket-powered skateboard and chills with nude Rihanna" have produced not only one of the most fun tracks of the year, but now hold the title for best music video of the year as well. It features a desperado-like entrance for one of the greatest fictional musicians ever, s egueing into the amazing surf guitar and Nokia brick phone samples "Hold The Line" is now famous for along with Santigold on [...]

Пара клипов от обобщенного альтер-эго Diplo и Switch - Major Lazer . Похоже, нового пришествия хип-хопа следует ожидать как раз со стороны лагеря Mad Decent, а не от Эминема или Тимбалэнда. Вот в довесок пара мп3 - один оригинал, и один пиратский ремикс, на случай, если тебе не терпится устроить истерику на танцполе прямо сегодня.
