Coming to a Dancefloor Near You - Major Lazer

I've been really digging a couple new releases in the past few days - Mos Def's The Ecstatic and Major Lazer's Guns Don't Kill People...Lazers Do. I'm pretty sure Zack has dibs on writing aboutThe Ecstatic, so I'll share a couple tunes from Major Lazer.

Major Lazer is the collaboration between Diplo and Switch - a dubstep romp featuring spots from Santigold, Nina Sky, Amanda Blank, and like 50 other people. It's the kind of album that doesn't grab you right off the bat, but invariably within ten minutes of spinning it you are dancing wildly in your seat. It grows on me every time I put it on, to a contagious degree.

Check these tracks and tell me they don't get you dancing. If you're not grooving to these, you're probably dead. See a doctor.
