“An artists first album is arguably the purest form of their art.. and this shows that side of Diplo before he was all commercialized. Really interesting sounds “
2. Florida (Florida, 2004)
“Nobody sounds like Diplo. Many may try to match his visionary style of dj-ing and production, but none will ever come close. Diplo’s brilliance helps to underscore everything that is wrong with most dj/producers today by consistently displaying his ability to create unique music and dj sets that move, not just your arse, but your soul.”
1. Revolution (Step Up: All In, 2014)
“The overall feel of his music is very unique, rhythmic, and worldly, and its got a realness that a lot of these other white guys with laptops don’t have, I can tell he’s not really a tourist but he gets into it…if that makes any sense.”
