calvin harris – sweet nothing [feat. florence welch; diplo's trapstyle remix] (2012)

this particular track is easily one of my favorite songs of the year – huge considering i’m not really into florence (personally). but she did the damn thing on this track, and now we have a diplo remix (dubbed “trapstyle”) to bring it all home.

diplo – about that life [feat. jahan lennon] (2012)

is this the least ‘diplo’ thing diplo has ever done? there’s no dancehall. there’s no gunshots. there’s no airhorn. and fellas, no daggering. we have a washed out (not the band) psych rock offering for his untitled solo LP, the first since 2004′s florida.
