Synopsis

We join Wesley Pentz – a.k.a. DJ Diplo and part of Major Lazer soundsystem – for one day at the annual Philadelphia block party of record label Mad Decent. In a candid portrait of an artist otherwise better known for Mad Decent’s madcap antics, Diplo shares his thoughts on people, culture and traveling - as well as what he would do should he stop making music.
