Team-up Extraordinare

Diplo is in the midst of a good stretch right now. First the team-up with M.I.A., then the Major Lazer collaboration with Switch and now the Major Lazer work with La Roux on Lazerproof. Remixing, reworking and contributing a few new tracks, Lazerproof showcases La Roux pipes backed by more hip-hop/Caribbean beats. The opening Bulletproof remix is fantastic, preserving the piano and strings, while adding those syncopated beats underneath. Good stuff plus its always fun to hear some new guests featured on tracks as Diplo brings in some great people like usual on the album. Mixtapes are hit or miss and while there are some so-so tracks here, there are some real gems as well. Independent Kill is bouncy as hell. You can go get the mixtape for free over HERE.
