Major Lazer f. Ricky Blaze & Nina Sky, “Keep It Goin’ Louder (Diplo Remix)” MP3
- story Peter Macia
There is no doubt Diplo will one day just remix remixes of remixes of his own songs until he has to just release shit and name it “Diplo” to keep from breaking the internet. And it won’t break. The songs will all sound different—like this one sounds a little like Brick Bandits—and will only be available as lolcats embeds on YouTube. And some day, maybe ten years from now, this site, and your site and Google and everywhere else will be known as Diplolz and Google Wave will look the Bill of Rights in comparison. This is how the end begins, with one extra hot remix of one super duper club jam while people are seriously worrying about Obama’s Peace Prize and global warming. Wake up, World!

Video: Major Lazer f. Nina Sky and Ricky Blaze, “Keep it Goin’ Louder”
- story Matthew Schnipper
Not sure if it’s too Hipster Runoff to say that this video for Major Lazer’s candy-cane-sweet freestyle bumper “Keep it Goin’ Louder” looks super fun. Could just be the animated zombies, but it could also be that Nina Sky and Ricky Blaze together is an unstoppable outer borough dream team. But it’s October—this is a summer jam! Though they surely could not wait to bust out the ridiculousness of the “Pon De Floor” video, that’s so much more a creepy autumn song, like Icabod Crane produced the drums in his secret Sleepy Hollow studio. But “Keep it Goin’ Louder”’s rah-rah spirit is indeed seasonally non-denominational—clubs are open when it is cold out, and there’s always next summer’s block parties and parades. Plus, the internet (where this video lives exclusively on NME’s site) is essentially a frozen state. Or maybe an overheated one, always toasty.

- story Matthew Schnipper
Each Tuesday, FADER editor Matthew Schnipper highlights an underappreciated recent release he thinks we need to know about. This week it’s NORE, Nina Sky, Gem Star & Big Mato and Daddy Yankee’s “Oye Mi Canto” 12-inch. Watch the song’s video, buy the song and read Schnipper’s thoughts on it after the jump.
MadeMe’s Amigos
- story Chioma Nnadi
The new MadeMe lookbook for fall ‘09 is like one big fashiony group hug since designer Erin Magee put it together with all her friends in mind. Naturally it’s called “Mes Amies,” which is French for my homies, and features guest spots from some of our friends too including Third Floor designer and FADER style contributor Cedric Haughton and the eternally adorable FADER cover starlets Nina Sky.

Major Lazer Zombies Eat Our Face + Diplo Remix
- story THE FADER
That is a euphemism for copious sweating: we lost 13 gallons of body water at SOB’s on Saturday night, where Major Lazer kicked off their Stateside tour. We also may have dropped it a little too low? Basically there was a lot of Diplo + Switch preeminently DJing dubstep, dancehall, Ace of Bass (whoa) and intermittent tracks from their totally awesome album, while FADER fave 77Klash pumped the crowd, tossed out toy laser guns, and sweated a lot less than the two young girls wineing on the stage the whole time. Ricky Blaze, Nina Sky and Jahdan Blakkamoore, all subjects of past FADER features, each came out to do their tracks from the album, and. Oh! And Ricky Blaze opened (but he only did one song, “Cut Dem Off”) and brought out the amazing Chelley, who performed her interminable late-night club hit “Took the Night.” Guns Don’t Kill People, Lazers Do is out tomorrow (and Ricky Blaze’s mixtape is coming out soon!) and we will have a shitload more to say on both topics. In the meantime, Diplo is streaming his dance remix of the Major Lazer Nina Sky song, “Keep it Going Louder” on his MySpace.

Video: Nina Sky, “On Some Bull”
- story THE FADER
Alright let’s talk Nina Sky for a second: Back in 2006 when albums seemed like they would actually show up in stores, we put the duo on the cover of our Summer Music issue on the strength of a bunch of jams from an album that ended up never coming out. Take a trip through TheFADER.com archives and you’ll see that we basically spent the last few years exclusively lamenting the lack of said official Nina Sky (office circulated bootlegs of internet released songs don’t count). Thankfully, between this video for “On Some Bull” and a pretty good performance at some other magazine’s party in a shoe store, there is a good chance that we’ll finally have an album to go with our cover story. We already talked about the song here, so we’ll just add that Nina Sky are likable enough that we can even get past the prominent use of breakdancing in the video.

We saw Nina Sky perform a small show at a shoe store a couple months back and we were excited to see they are just as awesome as when they graced the cover of F39: charismatic! Bringing the power-chica freestyle-influenced roller skate jams! Prepping to soundtrack our summer! This new track is also freestyle-y, includes some Baltimore club-like tubas, and is basically a two-finger jab into a wack dudes’ eyeballs. With fingernails! Get em, mamis.

Freeload: Nina Sky f. Rick Ross, “Curtain Call”
- story THE FADER
Yes, we put them both on the cover of FADER #39. Yes, it was 2006. Yes, Nina Sky didn’t technically release an album before or since then. But they are going to now (supposedly), and this is the first official single. And yes, we don’t care if Rick was a corrections officer because we never planned on actually buying cocaine from him anyway.
