Diplo has revealed a dubplate of a re-recorded version of Madonna's pop classic 'La Isla Bonita' - listen to it below.

Believed to be the outcome of a recent session shared with the singer, the video - a clip from Annie Mac's new Channel 4 show Superstar DJs - sees Diplo play a small portion of the tune before Annie Mac intervenes to cut the airing short.

Recognisable in its reworked sound, the song features the lyric 'Last night I dreamt of Major Lazer' in homage to the record producer, in place of the original line, "San Pedro".

Addressing the tune, Diplo said: "This took a hard, long conversation to get this to work" and joked, "That's why I work with all these big artists. Not to even have hits, just to get dubplates, so I can play them once for Annie Mac."

Originally released in 1987, La Isla Bonita was a global success reaching the number-one spot on the UK singles charts and the top five in the US.
