'Knock You Down (Major Lazer vs. Jack Beats Remix)' Sees 'Old Friend' Diplo Reworking Banger (Exclusive Download)

Remix packs have long been the rage in the dance music community, a quick way for artists and managers to draft friends and label-mates into providing a spin on pre-existing tracks. It's the former case with Jack Beats and Major Lazer's rework of "Knock You Down," in which producer/Instagramer-extraordinaire Diplo teams up with the U.K. duo for a fun take on a popular club banger. "We're old friends with Diplo so we really wanted to include him on this package," DJ Plus One and Beni G said in an email to HuffPost. "It turned out to be us and Major Lazer doing the mix on a bashy, big drum flex for the clubs and we're very proud of it." The track appears on "Jack Beats Remixed Vol. One" EP, due out August 13 on Skrillex' OWSLA. No need to wait until then, though: It's available as a free download above. The original version of the tune is available for your listening pleasure below.

David Lynch's Champagne Dreams

David Lynch's Champagne Dreams The LA Launch of the Iconoclastic Director's Newly Designed Dom Pérignon Bottle
David Lynch's Champagne Dreams on Nowness.com.
Filmmaker Luke Gilford fashions a surrealist portrait of the opening night party for the debut of David Lynch’s limited-edition bottle designed for Dom Pérignon. Following up his dreamlike campaign for the storied champagne brand launched last December, Lynch reinvented the look of the iconic Vintage 2003 and Rosé 2000 bottles. Gilford paid homage to the Mulholland Drive director by adopting his stylistic motifs, interspersing scenes from the exclusive party in Hollywood—featuring a live performance by The Kills and a DJ-set by Diplo for a crowd including the likes of Bret Easton Ellis, Bill Viola and Shannyn Sossamon—with the Lynch-designed bottle’s reveal capturing Los Angeles' fantastical visage. “I showed up to my grandma's house with a fog machine and lasers at 9am the day after,” explains Gilford. “Those images function a bit like non-sequiturs—of the same world, but kind of a hiccup, too. I wanted to build more of a dream sequence than a linear narrative.” Working with DJ Jeremy Lingvall, Gilford interwove an original score with audio recorded at the event and an interview with Lynch. “I wanted the film to be about conversation, experimentation and revelation,” he says. Here the Californian native, who has created film and photographic work for The New York Times and Maison Martin Margiela, as well as exhibiting at MOMA in New York, expands on the film icon’s legacy.
