kate and courtney's favorite dj, diplo, the same man who dj's hollertronix in philly and sometimes at sonar and is literally the best dj i've ever danced to, is apparently getting pretty darn famous. he's doing remixes for the likes of m.i.a. and beck. he's in an interview this month in genre magazine and gave a shout-out to baltimore:

"What are the biggest crowd-pleasers right now?
People are really responding to new dance music that comes from Baltimore. It is a mix of house and breakbeats. M.I.A.’s “Bucky Done Gun” also does very well. I put a lot into that song."

i'm not really sure which dance clubs he's talking about; apparently i'm going to the wrong places. read the interview here. (via arjanwrites)
