[Album Stream] Major Lazer: "Apocalypse Soon"
Major Lazer has been teasing his latest project, Apocalypse Soon for a minute now, and over the weekend the moombahton king dropped a stream of the album on his Soundcloud. In the past couple of weeks, the side project of mega-producer Diplo offered up "Aerosol Can" with Pharrell and the revival of dancehall singer Sean Paul who seems to have been gone from the spotlight since MTV stopped broadcasting 'TRL'. The project is a continuation of the kind of back-side wobbling production that lead Major Lazer to host a 'twerk wall' at last year's Electric Zoo festival. Top to bottom, the project shows Diplo can launch a variety of bass-infused attacks under whatever moniker works. Check out the project, streaming below.
Major Lazer x Zed's Dead: "Turn Around" (Feat. Elephant Man)
Diplo's Major Lazer is just a huge moving party. The project has spawned it's dancehall offshoot of Moombahton and brought it to the collective consciousness of white girls in crop tops across the country and creating a "Twerk Wall" in honor of his "Bubble Butt" track. Anyway, they managed to squeeze the loaded production of EDM duo Zed's Dead alongside Major Lazer onto one track, with Elephant Man on there as well. It's always nice to Elephant Man getting work out there. Check out the track below:
