Diplo has had himself a year helping to move the needle in pop music (hear all of the vocal chops, thank him and Skrillex) with Major Lazer and producing records for the likes of Beyoncé, M.I.A. and The Weeknd. Using his abilities as a record selector, Diplo has left behind his friends and mixed together a two hour best of 2016 mix with tracks by the likes of Dillon Francis, Drake, Ape Drums, Travis Scott, Flume, Desiigner, himself and more.

He doesn't just put together the top 50 songs on the charts. There are plenty of remixes and mashups, as well as songs that have been working in his festival and club sets.

If you are looking for a sure-fire party starter mix this holiday season, just hit play on this.
