Diplo Reveals Madonna Remix
. Prefacing the big reveal by admitting that "this took a long conversation to get this to work," Diplo played the remix, which features Madonna herself re-singing the song's opening line ("Last night I dreamt of San Pedro") to mention Major Lazer, Diplo's famous EDM dancehall act. Mac demonstrative reaction to the exclusive dub is too fun to miss. "That's why I work with all these big artists," Diplo joked afterward. "Not to even have hits, just to get dub plates, so I can play them once for Annie Mac." In DJ jargon, a dubplate is an exclusive remix (traditionally in the world of reggae and dancehall music) that features a vocalist contributing unique lyrics which generally mention the artist or DJ producing the track. Diplo landing Madonna for a Major Lazer dub of "La Isla Bonita" is a serious power move for the in-demand producer, who recently talked about his experience working with the pop legend on songs for her new album.
