Free Download: Halloween Mix - Diplo & System D-128

If you don’t already have a Halloween mix for your party tonight, then Diplo has you covered. He teamed up with Philly producer/video director System D-128 to create a three-hour Halloween-themed mix for his weekly BBC Radio 1Xtra program, “Diplo and Friends.” The first two-thirds are Diplo’s picks, and the final selections come from System D-128, which consists of a shitload of Three 6 Mafia tunes to help close things out. You can take a listen below as well as download it for free.

Free Download: “About That Life” - Diplo Feat. Jahan Lennon

Check out the new track from Diplo called “About That Life” featuring Jahan Lennon (a.k.a. ex-PO PO Jahan Zeb Malik)! The duo surprisingly channels a 60s/70s west coast mellow psych folk vibe (which we are seriously digging) for the recent release from The Jeffrees. The song is available for free download below. It also first appeared on Diplo’s mixtape series, AEIOU. Take a puff, and enjoy!

New Diplo EP Available for Streaming via Spotify

We mentioned earlier this week that Diplo is running a contest to win free lifetime entry into all his shows to celebrate the upcoming release of his Express Yourself EP on June 12. (Sorry dudes, apparently it’s for females only, and unlike Donald Trump and Miss Universe, we highly doubt transgender individuals will be allowed to enter. However, we don’t think that they’ll be testing so we’d love to see one win just to see the disappointed look on Diplo’s face. ;o) Well, you can now get a sneak preview of the album via Spotify, which also has contributions from Elephant Man, GTA, Datsik, Nicky Da B and more, so pop into that handstand and “let your booty go.”

Enter the Express Yourself Contest to Win Free Lifetime Entry to Any Diplo/Major Lazer Show!

So Diplo has been playing mind games with his fans for a while now teasing the release of his new EP Express Yourself. Well, the album finally has an official drop date of June 12 - although we’ve heard that one before. However, he also just announced a contest to win free lifetime entry to any Diplo/Major Lazer show. (That’s a lot of rad bills and festivals - fo sho!) All you have to do is tweet to #EXPRESSYOURSELF a photo of you expressing yourself in the craziest location possible. Submissions will be posted HERE, and Diplo himself will be picking the winner on June 16. Check out the contest’s promo video for more deets below.

Full Flex Express Tour w/Diplo, Grimes, Skrillex and More

If you ever had the notion to take a lot of drugs and dance your way across Canada, then the Full Flex Express tour might be something that you want to look into. Diplo, Grimes and Skrillex will be hitting the rails this July along with Pretty Lights, KOAN Sound and Tokimonsta as they take a private passenger train together to tour our northern neighbors. The idea was inspired by the Festival Express tour that The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin and The Band did across Canada in 1970 as well as the Railroad Revival tour last year which featured Mumford and Sons and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes. You can check out the tour dates below.
