Mishka Keep Watch Vol. X: Major Lazer




"In Mishka’s ongoing music project “Keep Watch”, their 10th mix comes to the light as the whole Keep Watch project has quickly become a symbolic aspect of Mishka’s ties to music. The 10th volume features “electro-reggae-dancehall virtuoso” Major Lazer which comes complete with a t-shirt featuring a graphic designed by Skinny Digital. A short bio of Major Lazer can also be seen below. The mix can be downloaded here while the t-shirt is available via MishkaNYC.

Major Lazer is a Jamaican commando who lost his arm in the secret Zombie War of 1984. The US military rescued him and repurposed experimental lazers as prosthetic limbs. Since then Major Lazer has been a hired renegade soldier for a rogue government operating in secrecy underneath the watch of M5 and the CIA. His cover is that of a dancehall night club owner from Trinidad and he enlisted the help of long-time allies and uber-producers, Diplo and Switch, to produce his first LP. His true mission is to protect the world from the dark forces of evil that live just under the surface of a civilized society. He fights vampires and various monsters, parties hard, and has a rocket powered skateboard.”
