Hopefully most of you guys already know about Ma’ting, a switzerland-based clothing brand inspired by Jamaican Dancehall Culture, making huge waves on the interwebs since a few months.

Jamaicans.com did a Interview with the designer and ceo of the brand, Alex Evequoz.

Tell us how Ma-ting got started?
I started by myself. I love JA and doing graphic design so I decided on trying to mix both passions for fun. I started out by drawing  one reggae artist in cartoon and then decided I will “mek dem all”… Then Don Corleon, which I drew, saw his cartoon and asked me if he could use it as logo. I purposed to him to mek a signature t shirt made by us, and he said yes… So then we decide, with my friend, to mek a whole t shirt line…

Safari Sound recently released their brandnew Mix Kingsize Ballads Vol.1 , packed with nuff new Tunes and Dubs. As the name tells you, this is just the beginning of a new mix series from the notorious Soundmen Shirkan and Sammy K from Malmö, Sweden.

Download the Mix by clicking the Cover, which was, by the way, done by Ma’ting‘s Alex Evequoz from Switzerland.

Sorry, I’m really late on this. Couldn’t post the Youtube Video, cause it didn’t play in my country and couldn’t find out how to insert the video from worldstarhiphop.com, cause it didn’t work with wordpress.

And to make it worse, Vodpod did not work together with my new browser…anyway, here is the Direct Link to the Video, Enjoy!

A while ago I’ve told you about Diplo selecting the new Greensleeves Riddimentary CD.

Now The Fader sat down with Diplo to talk about it.

It must have been hard to pick just a couple records with which to tell Greensleeves’ story. What’s not on the album that you wish was?

The proper version of “Night Nurse!” I mean there’s soooo much reggae from this certain genre, but this was the ones that really got me. The Toyan album with “African Thing” (the Jacqueline riddim) was one of the first crazy vinyls I got from a flea market. I would say its artworkwas directly influential to the Major Lazer character.
