It was only a matter of time, right? Dancehall heavyweights MAJOR LAZER teaming up with one of Australia's hottest dance producers. SWICK that is.
For the past 3 years, local Melbourne boy, SWICK, has been slowly sculpting a big name for himself within the international electronic music scene. Boasting a sound filled to the brim with blisteringly heavyset bass, and bouncing moombah rhythms, it was only a matter of time before the big guys took notice.
One of those big guys (perhaps the biggest) happened to be DIPLO. Seeing a release on MAD DECENT imprint THE JEFFREES sparked a flame that continued to grow in intensity, and in the coming months SWICK released a thundering 2-track EP with DIPLO entitled 'KEEP IT GULLY'.
Fast forward to today, SWICK has joined forces with MAJOR LAZER (one third DIPLO) to bring the world a dancehall remix of QQ's 'ONE DROP' bursting with reggaeton flavors and rhythms.

The track is an unrelenting four minute burst of high-octane energy saturated with MAJOR LAZER's hallmark sounds of vocal sampling and auto-tuned ragga vocals thrown together with SWICK's unmistakable rhythmic layering and progressions.
