The history of slowed-down, stretched-out psychedelic cover versions

― moonship journey to baja, Tuesday, 17 May 2011 21:27 (2 years ago) Permalink

The two of these embeds I've checked so far are both A1+++ awesome...

Well done the Universe!

― byebyepride, Wednesday, 18 May 2011 06:47 (2 years ago) Permalink

hey, i wasn't trying to be snide or an asshole above, sorry if it came off that way.

also, this sort of 'new genre' speak kind of makes me cringe. it started with slowed dutch house (with some awesome samples thrown on often, yes). DJs have been doing stuff like this at parties forever. spinning UK tribal and hard techno at similar BPMs is equally WO PARTY TIME, in my personal DJing experience.

in the end, though, i'm just happy that more people are digging this sound.

Nadia Oh, coming up trumps again, even if it is essentially the exact same song as Kate Middleton.

Late to this as always....but that Hi Fidelity 12 min mix is fantastic, esp the Toddla T remix. Wow!

Loving Dillon Francis so much right now. I don't care how silly this music is.

There's something just so right-feeling about the way dude's productions are simultaneously so cheesy and super-functionalist and "generic" and yet bring so much to the table, every few seconds there's another unexpected delight.

― Tim F, Saturday, 30 July 2011 16:37 (1 year ago) Permalink

His free download dubstep single with Cory Enemy also surprisingly great:

Dillon's "Masta Blasta" went over huge when it was dropped at the last Moombahton Massive in DC - there were clearly a lot of people in the audience that knew it well and were already freaking out during the intro.

Did I mention how awesome Nadia Oh's "No Bueno" is, boxedjoy?

― Tim F, Sunday, 21 August 2011 03:45 (1 year ago) Permalink

Not actually moombahton but this Nadia Oh tune is mindblowing also:

― Tim F, Sunday, 21 August 2011 03:46 (1 year ago) Permalink

The whole of the Nadia Oh album is really good, fun in a party-girl trash pop way.

I think "No Bueno" really works as a song because her plain, flat singing conveys the resigned sadness of a girl who can't stop herself from falling into a doomed relationship, and the way she strains her voice is her pleading to her own sense of hopelessness.

― ha ha ha ha jack my swag (boxedjoy), Sunday, 21 August 2011 17:09 (1 year ago) Permalink

going by crowd reaction and recognition when I've been out, the big new moombahton dancefloor anthem has been "Vibrate"

Nadastom's remix of Alex Clare has been floating around since spring and still not released, but gets a big response

― I DIED, Monday, 22 August 2011 19:43 (1 year ago) Permalink

In the same way there's the "brostep vs deep" dubstep or "FACT vs diva" funky, do you think we'll ever get a serious, moody breed of moombahton?

― ha ha ha ha jack my swag (boxedjoy), Monday, 22 August 2011 22:15 (1 year ago) Permalink

It's inevitable, though as with serious, moody versions of big beat it might end up being classified as something else.

― Tim F, Monday, 22 August 2011 22:25 (1 year ago) Permalink

Munchi's "Hope" maybe fits this category.

― Tim F, Monday, 22 August 2011 22:43 (1 year ago) Permalink

yeah generally a good amount of the moombahsoul stuff is in that direction, a good number of the tracks from Heartbreak and some from Munchi. Some of the new tracks in progress Nadastrom dropped last month were really dubbed out and dark with much more of a techno sound palette.

― I DIED, Monday, 22 August 2011 23:38 (1 year ago) Permalink

i should make a micro-moombahton track just for fun

― hardcore oatmeal (Jordan), Monday, 22 August 2011 23:44 (1 year ago) Permalink

I really like that Munci track, even if it is very "2011 vocal samples" x "moombahton" obvious.

― ha ha ha ha jack my swag (boxedjoy), Tuesday, 23 August 2011 07:43 (1 year ago) Permalink

This compilation is pretty great and appears to have a load of the apparent anthems on it. It's on Spotify as well. Love that Win Win remix.

that up all night remix is bliss

Philip Sherburne's moombahton cheat sheet on the Rhapsody blog

Haven't checked out some of these, The Takeover, Vol. One: Moombahton looks good. Actually surprised he went for Que Que, rather than West Side! from Dillon Francis. Actually was thinking that that guy should to release a remix compilation...

from upthread:

"In the same way there's the "brostep vs deep" dubstep or "FACT vs diva" funky, do you think we'll ever get a serious, moody breed of moombahton?"

think that thing that I Died just posted comes close!

Sabo just posted a whole mix of deeper moombahton material

I still haven't found any great compilations beyond Blow Your Head. There's a few out there on blogs but I find them a bit too cheesy and based on moombahing a current/kitsch-yesteryear hit, which doesn't do a lot for me. I get this stuff is meant to be fun and partyish but does it have to be so simplistic and obvious all the time?

― boxedjoy, Wednesday, 25 January 2012 02:16 (1 year ago) Permalink

there's a ton of comps at http://www.moombahton.com/musica/

scott, here's a tribal guarachero/moombahton mixtape from a Mexico City DJ: http://soundcloud.com/panamerika/tropic-all-mixtape-por-javier

I think you will like one of the surprises here.

― John Gaw Meme (_Rudipherous_), Wednesday, 25 January 2012 05:18 (1 year ago) Permalink

I'm liking this deep moombahton mix. Still haven't heard much of any sort in the style since what I've had mostly hasn't quite done it. (Maybe there is too much reliance on moombahton remix of songs from other genres I don't particularly like.)

I haven't followed this scene at all but this tune popped up in a dancehall mix I was listening to and it is great: http://soundcloud.com/jon-kwest/vybz-kartel-ft-tina-nunezz

Tim F, you might be pleased to see that Opal's "Balance" is on here in addition to the Kartel.

― fauxmarc, Wednesday, 30 May 2012 22:51 (1 year ago) Permalink

next DC moombahton massive isn't until July but they're worth going to - Nadastrom usually goes on when doors open and plays some really nice deeper stuff before things get crazy.
