i stink of lazer

Tuesday 21 April 2009



Diplo says of the debut track from Major Lazer (a new collaboration between himself and Switch): This one called Hold the line and its ‘like a surf rock ragga thingamajig, zeen!’ - LAzer says .. its got Mr Lexx (formerly Lexxuss) and Santigold (formerly Santogold) rockin out.

So literate.

Santogold makes the song, so does the shuddering, gnarly ghetto-funk beat. The cheesy blow-my-whistle-bitch style phone ring and horsey noises do not. But should probably expect a little bit of cheese from an Americano label hosting a pair that decide to call themselves Major Lazer and come up with this image to represent their song. Seriously, is that dude spitting out a tooth and pieces of phone? Rank.

Major Lazer - Hold The Line

More ghetto crunk love from Mad Decent...

Lykke Li - Dance Dance Dance (Buraka Som Sistema Remix)

And you can get the accapella and instrumental for Hold the Line from here if you want to do fun things with it. First album out in June.
