For the duration of social distancing and quarantine practices across the world, Diplo will live stream DJ sets from his house five nights per week.

The streams, intended to provide distraction and entertainment to the millions of Americans, and those around the world, responsibly staying in their homes, will be themed in line with Diplo's interests.

A Very Lazer Sunday, paying homage to his group, Major Lazer's, dancehall and reggae roots airing Sundays at 13:00 PT (22:00 CAT).

A mixed-bag Ronatronix set Tuesdays at 19:00 PT (2:00 CAT) (the name a throwback to the iconic Hollertronix parties that launched his career).

In an unprecedented coordinated effort, major publishers and record labels will allow the archived streams to live on YouTube and to be monetised by respective rights holders, with royalties being paid to all those whose music is played in the shows.

In addition to enabling rights holders to monetise accordingly on YouTube, those viewing on the Mad Decent Twitch page will be able to donate to the PLUS1 COVID-19 Relief Fund.
