Diplo and Skrillex will be ringing in the biggest night of the year at the iconic Madison Square Garden with a monster NYE celebration.

The show will include individual sets from both artists and a special performance from their joint project Jack U. More special guests will also take the stage that night, which are to be announced.

Jack U is the duo's latest collaboration, whose first single, "Take U There" featuring Kiesza, which debuted in front of a crowd of about 17,000 people at the Mad Decent Block Party in Brooklyn, NY, last month premiered in an official capacity today as Zane Lowe's 'Hottest Record in the World' and is now available to pre-order on iTunes.

The single, which features Kiesza, known for her hit "Hideaway," will be released on September 30th.

Diplo has become one of the most in-demand producers in the past decade, collaborating with a huge list of artists including Beyonce, Usher, Justin Bieber, Snoop Lion, No Doubt, Pharrell and Madonna. His solo work and dancehall project Major Lazer has positioned him as one of the top producers in the world, and his influential label Mad Decent has grown to become the place to go for breaking new sounds.

His latest effort, the compilation album Random White Dude Be Everywhere, is out now via Mad Decent.

The album showcases his biggest singles such the twerk-inducing, "Express Yourself," and new collaboration tracks with Waka Flocka Flame, Yellow Claw, Alvaro and others. Diplo most recently graced the cover of Billboard-see the piece here: http://po.st/4ZdCxb.
