Last month I went to the Major Lazer show here in Toronto and Diplo told me that he was working on a new video for “Keep It Going Louder”. He mentioned green screen, animation and said that if we liked the last few video’s he did for Major Lazer, then he had something special in store for us. Did he ever!!
.
He also posted this photo not too long after on his twitter giving us a little visual of what to expect, but I don’t think anything could of prepared us for this video. It was directed by Eric Wareheim, the same Director who did Major Lazer’s “Pon de Floor”. You can click HERE to check out that story.

This video is straight up insane. The chicks are busted! Not the typical video vixens, let me tell ya. These chicks look like they had a run in with Chris Cunningham and that voodoo guy who shrinks Beetlejuice’s head at the end of the movie for stealing his ticket number. Damn!
Haha! Diplo’s face, total Tim and Eric move.

Click here to check out the new video and get your mind blown away!

P.S I can’t wait to see the new “Major Lazer” cartoon on Adult Swim. I’m soooo excited! Zombies, Mummy’s, Vampires and Major Lazer!!! ^_^

Last Sunday, Oct 11th, I went to check out Major Lazer. It was one of several performances being held at the Guvernment for their 13th year anniversary. I will admit, I’m not a fan of the Guvernment, seeing as its way too big for my taste and I no longer rave it out like back in the day. BUT, I made an exception to see Major Lazer, so I just stayed on their stage in the Kool Haus room.
What a night!!! I’ve been wanting to see Major Lazer for quite some time now, and there was no way I was going to miss their first performance in Toronto. I only went that night to see them, and man was I blown away!!! I don’t know what I had in mind, but all I know is that I got more than what I expected. They know how to put on a SHOW!
I was hoping to see both Diplo and Switch that night (the 2 brains behind Major Lazer), but only Diplo was there to represent, and he KILLED IT! I have always been a huge fan of Diplo no matter what direction he goes in. The man is a musical Genius! Always expanding my musical taste and surprising me with what I like.
For anyone not knowing who or what Major Lazer was all about, I can’t imagine what it must have been like stepping into that room, taking a quick glance at Diplo looking all sharp in his suit and then seeing the madness up on stage. They must have been in Shock!
1) The music, 2) Skerrit Bwoy, 3) The dancers and 4) The Daggering= Crazy “DRY SEX” on the dance floor! Braaaap!
Check out my video for a taste of what you missed! I had an awesome POV on stage, thanks Wes!
(I apologize for the audio, it starts off a little crazy)
Also here’s Major Lazer - Keep It Goin’ Louder (ft. Nina Sky & Ricky Blazey).
I’m loving the video! Zombies, bats, mummys and Major Lazer himself. Sooo good!!
Also, my boy Diplo filled me in with a little secret for their upcoming Major Lazer video. Let’s just say that if you liked Pon De Floor and Keep It Goin’ Louder, then you will love where this next one is heading. Bringing in some next level animation. Unfortunately that’s all I can tell you, but from what he explained to me, it’s going to be awesome! I CANT WAIT TO SEE IT! Obviously I will post it as soon as its out.

Ok, this is AWESOME!!! I’ve been really excited and counting down the days for the release of the Major Lazer album that is set to come out on June 16th.
Well, I guess sometimes when you want something so bad….you get it!
Major Lazer has streamed their entire album on their MySpace page. Check it out right now! Can you say summer jams? Brap! Brap!
I love The Mary Jane track ft. Mr.Evil and Mapei!
Also, check out this toy of Major Lazer, the Jamaican Commando who lost his arm in the secret Zombie War of 1984. Read full story here.
I asked Diplo if they were planning on making more of these cool toys, besides the ones they made for the video and he said “he hopes they can”. I’m going to keep my fingers and toes crossed for this.
I want them all! Major Lazer, The Zombie Vampire, the Mummy…every toy that is in their new Hold The Line video. Check it out!
I have a feeling this won’t be the last time we see some animated Major Lazer. Perhaps an adult cartoon might be heading our way? Hmmm…..

“They’re Back from the Grave and Ready to Party” The first ever Return Of The Living Dead Action Figure is coming! Tarman Zombie features ball jointed neck, shoulders, opening jaw and base with Trioxin canister and bitten brain!
I’m a huge fan of Zombies, so I can’t wait to get this! But I’ll have to wait a while, since it’s not coming out until September/October (Just in time for Halloween 2009).
It looks like I’m not the only one who’s a fan of Zombies. Major Lazer, the Diplo/Switch dancehall project has come out with a track called Zumbi Feat Andy Milonakis. It’s some pretty funny s#!t ! The beat is sick and the lyrics are ridiculous, dirty and violent. It’s everything a zombie track should be!
Check it out!
Here’s a video of Andy Milonakis with Diplo and Switch in the studio.
