Electro, Moombahton | Zedd – Stars Come Out (Dillon Francis Remix)
Posted by Spice on March 19, 2012
To quote Dave Nada, sometimes things just sound way more trill slowed. By now we’ve gotten a number of excellent remixes to Zedd’s already excellent “Stars Come Out,” but I can’t resist what happens when you drop the tempo down to the 110 bpm range. As always, Dillon Francis delivers masterfully in this regard, adding in smooth builds and agile synths that work well with the vocals. Preview it below before cruising to Beatport.
Review | Dillon Francis – “Something, Something, Awesome.” EP
Posted by Spice on February 14, 2012
Dillon Francis released his new EP today as a little Valentine’s day present to his fans. There may be only three tracks (one for each Dillon Francis on that cover art?) but this EP is nonetheless fire: it combines electro house with the downtempo funk of moombahton to great effect. Dillon has already managed to cultivate an undeniably distinctive sound and these tracks reinforce that, with high-pitched synths and the agile, I.D.G.A.F.O.S.-esque melodies that are rapidly becoming his trademark. And, of course, plenty of driving and super danceable moombah basslines. Good stuff all around. My favorite of the three is currently “Dill The Noise,” which Sev previewed in last night’s Moomabah Mondays post, but “Falling Up” (which you may have already heard on BBC Radio 1) is packed with catchy riffs and “Now Hear This” layers some heavier electro synths under those recognizable moombahton leads. In short, this is a must DL; I have a feeling that Dillon’s in for a very big year so support his work by purchasing these tracks on Beatport.

Bingo Players track Rattle was created with the perfect melody for a Moombah track. That’s why whenever I stumbled on this bass bumping Moombah remix by La’REDA I knew exactly where it was going. I was lucky enough to meet Bro Safari this past week at Dillon Francis’s show, and recently he unleashed this monster hour long Moombahton mix. I recommend every Moombahton fan download it because you won’t be disappointed. First up we have Josh Miller, back on Moombah Mondays for two weeks in a row with a remix of Bingo Players Devotion. Josh brings the bass in this remix and leaves you with no choice but to dance.

Oh I forgot to mention if you like Josh Miller’s style but want something heavier he also dropped this monster Moombahcore remix of Waterdrops.

Another veteran to Moombah Mondays, : DFace with his latest freebie for hitting 2K fans. This track has that signature heavy Moombahcore style that : Dface always brings to the table.

Silent H! has created a strange mashup/moombah remix of Skrillex, Feed Me, and Knife Party and although I am not a fan of mashups, I can’t stop listening to this one.

Wick-it dropping this unique remix of California Love. At first I wasn’t sure how I felt about it, but after a few listens I was hooked.

Mach sent me this track by ### today and as you will hear, the vocals drove me away the first time. After ### emailed me the track and I had a second listen you could say I had a change of heart.

Last but not least D-V3KZ’s remix of Diplo Hates You. I can’t get enough of the heavy sounds in this Moombahcore remix.

Electro, Electro-House | Digitalism – Circles (Dillon Francis Remix)
Posted by Sev on November 25, 2011
Best known for his Moombahton tracks, Dillon Francis has been stepping outside of his comfort zone lately by creating some electro, house and even dubstep. This track was categorized as an electro jump up by Dillon Francis and I would agree that it is exactly that. This track gives off good vibes all around with some of his signature heavy synth drops that just make you want to dance.
Albums, Dubstep, Electro | Kill The Noise – “Kill Kill Kill” EP
Posted by Mach on November 22, 2011
Rumor’s were going around from artists that got this EP early, that it was going to be the best EDM EP of the year. That statement could not have prepared anyone for this beast. Forget Skrillex, this is definitely the top release OWLSA has had. Kill The Noise didn’t just rock out the dubstep on this one, the guy gives electro a whole new light with his tracks Deal With It and She Likes To Party. The EP also features some amazing remixes from Dillon Francis, Brown & Gammon, Alvin Risk, and KOAN Sound. I can’t even begin to start telling you my top tracks, this whole EP is freakin’ insane. Give it a listen yourself, its a revelation waiting to happen.

Moombahton | Moombah Monday
Posted by Sev on November 7, 2011
It is Moombah Monday again, and we have your fix of Moombah bangers. I am surprised at how much more moombah tracks are being made recently, and I must say I am pretty pleased. Looks like people are getting the hang of it. I feel it is only a matter of time until some new big names take it on, like Dillon Francis and Nadastrom have.
This first track is a little bit heavy as far as moombahton goes, but has been getting support from some big names such as Knife Party.
DOWNLOAD: Bro Safari – Uncrushable
This track has been getting remixed a lot lately, but this one is probably my favorite remix.
DOWNLOAD: Diplo – Horsey (Lazerdisk Party Sex)
JoNny Chino never dissapoints as far as Moombahton tracks go. This one is a little bit more chilled than the rest but it is still a good remix.
DOWNLOAD: Jay Z Ft. Pharell – Excuse Me Miss(JoNny Chino SEXY Moombahton Edit)
This is my favorite remix of the bunch. Oh, Beats! brings a nice new flavor to the track and creates a Moombah masterpiece.

Moombahton | Skrillex – Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites (TMH Moombahcore Bootleg)
Posted by Sev on October 30, 2011
Moombahton is on the rise, and honestly I love everything it has to offer. One avid promoter of the genre is Skrillex; who took Nadastrom and Dillon Francis on part of his Mothership Tour to help spread the word. TMH did a sick job turning this track into a moombah banger. I wouldn’t be surprised if some big names got a hold of this track and started dropping it live.
