I just really had to get that damn eye ball off the first post. It probably scared some people away… There’s no other reason for this weird mix of tunes…
Bjork – Nattura (Switch Remix)
EDIT – In case you cared – US relaxes grips on the internet

While the war in Afghanistan nears it’s eighth year and more troups and money are being poured into them, there is another unspoken war being fought. Major Lazer is the prime weapon in this war.
Major Lazer is a Jamaican commando who lost his arm in the secret Zombie War of 1984. The US military rescued him and repurposed experimental lazers as prosthetic limbs. Since then Major Lazer has been a hired renegade soldier for a rogue government operating in secrecy underneath the watch of M5 and the CIA. His cover is that of a dancehall night club owner from Trinidad and he enlisted the help of long-time allies and uber-producers, Diplo and Switch, to produce his first LP. His true mission is to protect the world from the dark forces of evil that live just under the surface of a civilized society. He fights vampires and various monsters, parties hard, and has a rocket powered skateboard. As part of a plan to subdue the forces of evil with a batch of futuristic dancehall bangers, the three encamped at Tuff Gong Studios in Jamaica to record the Major Lazer record.
Okay so maybe Major Lazer is really just Diplo and Switch. It still doesn’t stop Major Lazer’s first release Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do from being a hardcore dancehall banger. It’s the classic story of Harold and Maude but where Maude is hard-hitting old school Jamacian Dancehall and Harold are those beats that force you to get up and move.
Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do comes out on Downtown Records on June 16th, 2009 but you can download a couple of the songs right now for free.
Hold the Line (DJ Edit) – Major Lazer (instrumentals and accapella also available)
A little bit of a sillier song: zumbi-feat-andy-milokanis
Here’s a FMLY secret, we’ve found a new addition to the best FRND category and her name is KE$HA. You probably know Kesha from the Flo Rida track “Right Round” where she sings about giving head and just having an all-around wholesome time. FMLY spent Friday evening and night as Kesha’s date to the Avalon and we couldn’t be more excited for the journey she is set to embark on; FMLY offers 100% of our support to the most awesome pop star of the 00’s. Kesha doesn’t just sing about sex, drugs and getting her freak on, but she actually gets down and dirty and has a sense of humor that the average sex symbol just doesn’t understand…plus she doesn’t just dig, but loves vinyl. Expect remixes from Switch and Diplo, a collaboration with Three Six Mafia and a solo record to drop towards the end of ‘09 via RCA. Production credits include Dr. Luke and Max Martin, if they sound familiar it’s because they sorta make the music for Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, Pink and Britney Spears, no big deal.

Coincidentally, FMLY veterans The Hood Internet just posted a mashup of Flo Rida vs MSTRKRFT called “1000 Times Right Round” featuring our girl!
