Been a minute since we’ve had some Major Lazer on the site, so we’ll welcome this new Laza Beam refix like the friend we made in the summer and just ran into in biology class. The Trinidadian producer filled out the Crookers-assisted “Jump Up” with more squelch and rotundness, additions we’ve never been averse to hearing.
Below, Evil Nine bring new hurt to an old favorite—N.A.S.A.’s “Whatchadoin” featuring Spank Rock, Santigold and M.I.A.—sharpening it into quite the ear-bleeder.
