Fresh off the release of their Apple Music documentary Give Me Future, Major Lazer vastly improved the holiday vibes with the surprise drop of a new track. "Go Dung," featuring Trinidadian soca group Kes, was released as a free stream via SoundCloud Monday. Catch the new track in full below.

Back in June, Major Lazer dropped their Know No Better EP via Mad Decent. The six-song collection's title track—featuring Travis Scott, Quavo, and Camila Cabello—quickly proved itself to be a hit with legs. In August, a remix EP was released featuring eight fresh interpretations of the track from DJ Zinc, La Fuente, Bad Bunny, Doobious, and many more.

Give Me Future, which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival, was directed by Austin Peters and chronicles Major Lazer's historic Cuba show in March 2016. The Havana performance, the result of more than a year of extensive planning, was attended by more than 400,000 people.

"The people we met and spoke to, the things we saw and the show we played had a profound impact on us, and Austin captured it perfectly," Diplo said in a press release of the documentary's impact. "It feels even more impactful to share this with the world in light of current events, and we're stoked for you to see it."

Next year will presumably bring the release of Major Lazer's long-teased Music Is the Weapon, their first full-length since 2015's Peace Is the Mission.
