Diplo – Revolution (EP) [Preview]

Audio 10/02/2013 David G.

Fairfax, VA – If you’ve been to a Diplo show lately, you’ve probably already heard some of these tracks. If you follow Diplo on Instagram, you’ve probably seen the cover above before. Its his new EP!

Diplo has, as always, brought some crazy new music from his various travels around the world — mixing and collaborating with different genres and producers. One of these producers was Boaz van De Beatz, a dutch producer he has started to push heavily on his label Mad Decent. Overall, the EP sounds pretty “diplo” if we can use that as an adjective. Listen to the preview below under the track listing where our staff picks are.

Jack U makes its debut in San Diego

09/17/2013 David G.

Fairfax, VA – This past weekend, electronic music power houses, Diplo and Skrillex, joined forces for the first time as Jack U at the Mad Decent Block Party 2013 in San Diego, California.

Jack U was announced a few months ago by Diplo as a duo between himself and Skrillex. The pairing of two big producers isn’t a new thing for the two; Diplo with Jillionaire as Major Lazer and Skrillex with Boys Noize as Dog Blood. These duos have formed to create unique music and to create a new sound for those fans who have grown tired of “the same thing” over and over again.

The duo also dropped a few new tracks during their set at MBP13 San Diego, all of which so far have no I.D. Take a listen and let us know what you think.

There is still no word on when the movie will go into production or even a rough release date, but the names of the writers and some producers have been released; Adam Weinstock and Andy Jones as writers and Trevor Engelson and Noah Rothman as producers and executive producers, respectively.
