Major Lazer - Hold The Line [MUSIC]

Major Lazer is brainchild of Diplo & Switch, who have teamed up to produce a dancehall record which is set for release in June. This is the first single and is officially my jump off tune for the summer!

The duo have adopted the Major Lazer moniker to house the material, although the press notes seem keen to state that "Major Lazer is a Jamaican commando who lost his arm in the secret Zombie War of 1984. The US military rescued him and repurposed experimental lazers as prosthetic limbs. Since then Major Lazer has been a hired renegade soldier for a rogue government operating in secrecy underneath the watch of M5 and the CIA." Entitled Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do, the record is a marriage of classic dancehall traditions with the upfront production ethics that you'd usually associate with Diplo and Switch, and they've managed to coax some of dancehall's biggest acts to feature on the record...(click here for more.)

DIPLO SAID THIS WILL LIKELY BE HIS LAST DJ TOUR!

I was planning on hitting up Circa tonight for this show, and then on lunch I contemplated the idea of skipping it...now after reading a Q&A with Diplo from NOW Mag, I figure it would be a grave injustice to myself not to be there!

"I’ve played pretty much every major dance club on the circuit in North America, so this will likely be my final DJ tour, although I’ll probably still make one-off appearances here and there. I don’t want to be like every other DJ who just shows up at the big clubs and plays all the trendy tunes. I have no problem playing stuff I’ve recorded, my own edits of recent club joints, my friends’ records and whatever else feels right." -Diplo
