The end the decade is only days away, and there’s so much to look back on and think about how we go here. The same is obviously true for music, and who better to guide us through the past decade than one our community’s best tastemakers: Diplo?
Say what you will about Diplo, but there’s no denying that the man has had finger on the pulse music for a little over two decades. In the past 10 years especially, his label Mad Decent has grown by leaps and bounds, not to mention his own personal career. Beyond just Diplo, he’s also worked with Skrillex on Jack Ü, Sia and Labrinth on LSD, and Mark Ronson on Silk City. And that’s really just been in the last 5 years, for the most part.
Diplo brings his impeccable taste to his Diplo & Friends show on BBC Radio 1 to present his Best Of The Decade mix. Check it out below as well as the tracklist.
