Major Lazer - Hold The Line
I have to admit- I love the idea of Major Lazer. The collaboration between my favorite DJs (Diplo and Switch) have created this amazing track. “Hold The Line” is the first release from Major Lazer. The track, planned to be released on the album “Gunz Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do”, features Santigold and Mr. Lexx
Mad Decent blog says that dub’s done by Andy Milonakis. Maybe a joke, but Milonakis has got his own releases on the Mad Decent label.
ADDED BONUS: DVW REMIXXX!
I just managed to stumble upon this remix and it’s just as great as the original. DVW uses a more electronic base with oscillating hums.

MAKE IT VIBRATE LIKE A NOKIA
Santogold and Diplo - Top Ranking // I have yet to meet someone that doesn’t like Santogold. She’s really one of the few perfect musicians out there. M.I.A. of course is a legend. And Diplo, well he runs Mad Decent. Enough said. So when I heard about collaborations between Santi White and Diplo, and then a collab with Santogold and M.I.A., I was amazed.
Santogold - Say Aha (and other tracks) / I’ve come to the sad realization that Santogold’s new album will not be electro, avant-garde hip-hop I hoped it would be. Instead it’s more like a post-Pixies type of thing. I’ve come across 3 new tracks by her and all are a bit funky indie type music. Nevertheless it’s still very good music and I will buy the album. The song in the audio player is “Say Aha”, but here’s some others too.
Santogold - Starstruck - Holy crap. I am so excited for Santogold’s debut album. And all these MP3s that are getting around are only making me more excited. There’s a sick little clip of her singing on MTVU which I’ll link to at the bottom of the post. Now there’s this. This slowed down, less hip-hop track is awesome. It’s not a party track like “Creator” or “Shove It”. I don’t even know what to relate this to. I haven’t heard anything like it. Have you?
