Sue-Elise sent me a post the other day for Deerhunter’s album release party but it was too late to post. I heard it was the second free show they did in NYC, the other one being at the Soho Apple Store. Well, here’s another freebie provided by Mad Decent.
“A lost/new/crazy demo” done with M.I.A.
Diplo and Don Diablo’s collaborative project, Make You Pop, will be dropping August 24, exclusively on BeatPort. This news comes just days after it was played on BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix show with Pete Tong.

The specific lineups have not been set but the flyer pretty much has everyone you would want to see so we’ll see…
Pomp & Clout, “a talented video director/motion graphics guru,” will be taking on a new venture as a DJ, releasing volume one of his mix series starring Diplo. Sounds dope.
The minds behind Pon Di River bring you make you pop. What do you think? Do you think this’ll blow just like the Pon Di River?

Diplo has been very vocal about his ex’s new album. The following is part of an interview that the talented DJ/producer did…
On what went wrong with MAYA: “I think she’s a really controversial artist and she’s one of the most important people doing music right now, because people expect a lot. And I think that the record was like—she didn’t care about it. I was in the studio with her, she didn’t write anything… Me and Switch tried our best to be quality control of the record and she didn’t want that. She kind of went on her own way. I was like, Look, nobody in your crew—we were the only people she could trust, and our asses were on the line too. We got here because of working with people like her. We care about the way things sound, and when the people that she works with don’t, then it’s fucked up. She’s got a talent in every aspect. She’s got ideas bigger than any artist I’ve ever met and she’s someone to fuckin’ make that happen. All she has is a bunch of yes men around her and they kinda suck.”
I think the production line speaks for itself. /\/\/\Y/\ drops in the UK tomorrow and on the 13th everywhere else.
