Keep it Goin’ Louder (Remixes)
Major Lazer featuring Ricky Blaze & Nina Sky
Major Lazer is the project name for a joint music venture by Diplo (best known as the producer of M.I.A.), and Switch (responsible for remixing artists like Kelis, Mika, Nine Inch Nails, Basement Jaxx, P. Diddy and Bjork, among others). The native sound of the resulting album, “Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do,” is a progressive take on Jamaican dancehall, but it’s the duo’s roots in club music that makes the singles so delicious; namely, in the vast scope of remix producers they have utilized. “Keep It Goin’ Louder” is a clear standout from the album, relying heavily on the novelty of Auto-Tuned vocals and featuring pop urban singer Nina Sky. It stands on its own in its original format, but it’s the ten-track remix promo that takes it to an entirely new level via reinterpretations by names like Mixin’ Marc, Tommie Sunshine, Superchumbo (Tom Stephan), Il Diablo Brooklyn Fire and Diplo himself. It’s an unexpected contender for your next Circuit party, but trust me, it gets ya moving.
