New Sounds From Boyfriend

Right on the heels of this summer's mega-hit Bashin', Diabluma Sound dropped another soon to be OG release; this time the tunes are coming from our favorite Lithuanian moombahtonista: Boyfriend.  Out today, the Vodka House EP is old fashioned moombahton brought to light.  With top notch production, tight as hell drums, and the Vilnius born producer's signature Euro-stylings this four track EP is a MUST HAVE for any die hard fan of the movement.  Florida bass head Big Makk gives an assist on the ultra-late night tune "6AM" and Nadastrom lends their club tuned ears to a fine remix of the title track bringing everything full circle for this long time contributor to Europe's 108 scene.  Boyfriend's Club Tropicana party has been a mainstay across the pond for the last few years and he will join Nada and co for the continent's forthcoming Berlin Moombahton Massive in December.  Get down to the sounds!

Hump Day Ritual

That's right you bastards, the Midweek Pull is here again!  I've been looking high and low (but mostly just my soundcloud dashboard) for some totally amazing and awesomely radical tunes to throw your way and this is the best I could come up with.  New tracks today from Photo Romance, David Heartbreak, Chrome Wolves, and more...let's hop in and see what we come out with shall we?!

Super derpy track right here as French duo Aglory trap-down King Kong's original in an eerily beautiful way. I'm especially excited about the use of the nylon acoustic guitar for the super sexy breakdown about 50 seconds in...yeahhhh smooth as hell.

Fools be using some crazy letters lately. I'm pretty sure it says Soniye is the artist who has unleashed the hell hounds on WARP. Seriously, this thing is nutty.

More dark tracks from the great PNW, Portland's Chrome Wolves channels his inner man in black for this excellent track. It's a FREE DOWNLOAD so get on it right now!

You want some free moombahton?? Sheeeeeeeeet, you like Ludacris?? How about a FREE Ludacris moombahton remix??? Oh man, I just made your day didn't I? Don't thank me, thank these dudes Agro Swag by following them on TWITTER so you can know about future releases as they drop.

It was sorta hard to escape JWLS' "Bashin'" yesterday if you're any kind of moombahton fan and I was most excited to see that Nadastrom were giving away this bouncy remix. Get on it!! Also, do yourself a favor and buy the full EP RIGHT HERE.

Speaking of creepy tracks, Photo Romance shared this 'core leaning remix of fellow countryman Gesaffelstein's "Belgium" the other day so I wanted to pass it along. It's a FREE DOWNLOAD so get on it while you can y'all cause sometimes tracks get picked up and then you have to pay for them :(

The homie Pickster One also giving away a free moombahton track. He flipped Cassidy's "Hotel" for "all my working club DJ's that grind it out each and every week" so grab this free track and put your mother fucking hands up!!

My main man Nightmare coming through with some Freddy Krueger type scary stuff. FREE DOWNLOAD of his remix of Bingo Players...get it while it's hot!

I gots free tracks coming out of my ears in here!! :DFace promised to drop all sorts of free stuff for us this summer and so far he's following through with that!! Another huge track that will certainly make it into moombahton sets for DJs around the country if not the world...FREE DOWNLOAD!!

As mentioned earlier in the week, this Birdy Nam Nam remix from Skrill-dogg is probably one of the most hyped tracks of the month so I was stoked to see that dude Heartbreak made sure to drop one of his signature Loc'd out remixes for us to enjoy. Not up for download yet but knowing this dude it'll wind up on a free comp soon y'all...be patient.

That's it for this week's MWP. Some tracks are great, some you'll love, some I'm sure you'll hate but hey that's what music is all about!! Grab the free downloads where applicable and make sure to support the artists by purchasing the full EPs that they release. Also be a good lad/lass and follow us on twitter, like us on facebook, and follow us on soundcloud. Cool, good work.

Tuesday Night: Preview Night

In the past I have expressed a disliking of "previews" being blogged BUT in an attempt to create more weekly features, I've come up with a "once a week" long form blog dedicated to tracks that either aren't finished or aren't released or whatever reason an artist/label may give for not putting out the full song.  This way I can shed light on forthcoming releases without having to wait on the complete songs to hit soundcloud.  So for our first week of Preview Night I've got some awesome stuff from Nadastrom, Munchi, ETC!ETC!, and more!!!  Here we go!

Here's a new track from ETC!ETC! and his homie Must Die. No release details yet but the description promises some are on their way!! Apparently this unreleased dubby track has early support from "Dillon Francis / AC Slater and More."

Here's a housey preview of something called "Chicken And Waffles" from the Mad Villains. It's unsigned and so unreleased as of yet but here we're getting over 4 minutes of funky niceness so maybe it'll end up being like a 6:30 epic!

This track is actually out...here's an example of a preview I don't really get (but hey the artists can do what they want I suppose). Anyways you can buy this Codes remix RIGHT HERE and the whole release from Kill The Noise HERE...enjoy!

Unreleased Nadastrom is my favorite kind. Here's another one that some label fools seem to be hoarding along with probably my favorite moombahton track of ALL TIME, their remix of "Too Close". Anyhoo, this Zeds Dead remix is pretty alright I guess too.

Awwwwww yiss...DEATH TRAP. The vortex is apparently rising and LeDoom will be riding on the wave. Not sure of any release details yet but be on the look out or the Masters of Hardcore will get you!

New Boys Noize...and I do mean new. Won't hit 'shelves' till October of this year. That's right folks!! For the next 3 months you'll just have to settle for this 1:43 of glory!!

Finally the king of not only the preview but the never released track, it's that Rotterdam dude with big hair, MUNCHI! He's calling this "Skull Trap" so take away from that what you will folks, apparently it's the sort of stuff he's been wanting to do for a "long fucking time" and says we all need to be on the look out for his new EP entitled PRSPCT "soon". We'll be looking!

Well that's it for this week's previews, we hope you liked them!  I feel like the full blog is about to start so I probably don't have time to go grab a soda/popcorn refill.  Just be glad we don't make you sit through commercials like they do at Regal/AMC/etc before you even get to watch the previews--seriously right?!  I mean why did I pay $12 for my ticket, $6 for a hot dog, and $5 for sour patch kids if you still have to support yourself with commercials?!?  Till next Tuesday!!  In the meantime feel free to enjoy the full length tracks we're also featuring on the site.

Welcome to Your Weekend!

It's Friday...I know some of y'all still have to head into work like me but that doesn't mean we can't start visualizing our weekend already.  I'm picturing sunny skies, warm beaches, tan bods, cool drinks, and stuff I can't write here.  So, to get us all ready, I've scoured the depths of my soundcloud dashboard and now bring forth a collection of some totally radical mixtapes for you to rock out with starting RIGHT NOW!!!  Tapes from AC Slater, Nadastrom, and DJ AM (RIP) among others.





HARD Summer is two weeks away!!  Get tix RIGHT HERE!!!!!





Well that's it y'all...download where applicable and remember the most important thing about the weekend, is to be safe.  Only 7 left till the summers done so if you're near it may I suggest hitting the beach or possibly a lake??  Do yourself a favor and at least go to the pool ok?  Hope you have a great one, make sure you stay in touch with us on facebook, twitter, and soundcloud for more info about your favorite heavy music blog: MTH.

400 DEEP

People probably don't realize what it really takes to run a dope music blog like this one...I certainly didn't for the longest time.  For like 2 years I just sorta had the blog and would throw stuff up here and there, sometimes months between each post.  So it's exciting for me to see that we've now come to post #400.  For the last 8 months or so I've been living this site, going to bed each night trying to dream up awesome ways to make it more appealing to you the reader.  We've launched the Midweek Pull, "Don't Be Shy", the KBOO #Moombahton Takeover, and more shit to do just that.  I hope over the next 400 posts (and beyond) we will continue to bring you dope tunes, original stuff, exclusives, and more!  To celebrate this milestone I'm ROCKING MY ASS OFF in the studio.




Be sure to like us on FACEBOOK, follow us on TWITTER and SOUNDCLOUD and keep coming back for more tunes everyday!!

Welcome Back To Reality!

Uh oh...Monday, that means it's back to the daily grind here at MTH...to cold dark studios where we spend countless hours of the day sifting through the pile on soundcloud trying in vain to bring you some new and interesting tuneage.  This week is no different from any other, we've dug and dug and dug and now present to you some new music from the likes of Munchi, Dillon Francis, Nadastrom and more!  It's gonna be a great week y'all so let's get it cracking shall we??

Let's kick it off with a rocking remix of Alex Clare...I've let it be known that THIS remix is probably my favorite song at the moment (it has been for months) but I'm glad Nadastrom decided to go back to their punk roots for a little diddy just for us fans.

Here's a baile funk track from the PHX homie Riot Earp. Fans of the site know I'm impartial to latin rhythms and this track delivers for sure...plus I love whistles y'all.

Buraka beat master Branko is back at it with a bubbly rework of Drake. It's a FREE DOWNLOAD for now so make sure to get your hands on it ASAP.

Here's another FREE DOWNLOAD for ya...this time coming from Will Bailey who'll be at next month's Muevelo out here in LA...check it out and come to Muevelo to support the movement.

Another remix of "Express Yourself" is out for FREEEE...this version makes me feel like I'm dozing after a full night of raging, so good job Starfoxxx...I'm pretty sure that was your goal.

And now for a little summer flavor...first up here's a deep club re-fix of Aalyiah's "Rock The Boat" (RIP) from Tony Quattro. It's super chilled out and a FREE DOWNLOAD over at the man's Facebook page.

And here's a free soul track from our boy King Kong outta Portugal. This kid keeps the hits coming yet again with a track perfect for those outdoor pool parties you'll be frequenting soon.

The latest from Dillon Francis is a core'd up remix of Steve Aoki's "Control Freak"...it's a departure from Dillon's standard fare which is great to hear cause lately I've been growing tired of his style, so I'm glad he's trying to switch things up a little bit.

Another native track from ATCR...been really digging their stuff lately and I'm stoked they're giving it away for free RIGHT HERE!

What's that you say?? You want MORE ATCR?? Well hope about this Javier Estrada remix? Does that suit you?? It's a free DL as well...grab it RIGHT HERE.

New 'ish from JWLS...he's a Miami kid so it's no surprise that he dropped this strip club anthem on us after the Heat won the 'ship...grab it RIGHT HERE.

Brodinski cooked up a little "Techno Trap" transition track out of Danny Brown's "Die Like A Rockstar". It's available in the Fool's Gold Goldmine so if you're so inclined go ahead and sign up y'all!!

Now just wanted to share two tracks from Munchi's new release...the Rotterdam Trap EP dropped today, my man has been kicking back and taking care of himself so we're ok that he's taking more time to release tracks. As they come out he proves again and again why he's the master, this time he dominates the trap sound with his insane proficiency. Grab the EP RIGHT HERE y'all and rock this thing.

I could post the whole thing (it's all FIRE) but I feel like it's getting tons of exposure as is so I'll just keep it to two songs on today's big post. Holler at the kid MUNCHI in a city near you and support the movement!

That's gonna do it for today's new music y'all...we'll be back on Wednesday with more heaters to destroy your speakers with. Until then you'll just have to live with whatever else I decide to drop on you. Make sure to check us out on Facebook and twitter for more and more and more nonsense. PEACE!

Breakin' Things Down...Midweek Style

Sometimes it can be difficult to come up with a magnitude of tracks that I see fitting for our long posts.  This week that is certainly not the case.  So much new stuff jumping up on soundcloud it's slightly baffling to me, y'all must be working your asses off in the studio trying to get this stuff out and might I add, it's pretty great work!  New stuff today from Valorous, DJ Madd OD, Craze and more...let's quit talking about it and jump right into the new material.

Coming off the success of his Generation Bass release this month, OktoRed dropped this free track for his fans to enjoy! It's a tasty slice of dembowed electronica with plenty of low end to get your trunk rattling.

No one doubts Bart B More and Harvard Bass' abilities when it comes to rocking a party into the wee hours of the AM. Here, in their latest collaboration for Secure Recordings, they give us a theme song to their long used phrase describing such raucousness.  BUY IT HERE.

Another free track from our buddy :DFace in his summer of free music series. This one drives along in a pitchy battle between kick and synth leads. Good stuff.

DMC Champ and Miami native Craze promised that for every game the Heat won in the finals he'd drop a Loc'd Out remix. Well after Lebron and the boys handled biz on Sunday about 5 tracks jumped onto the man's soundcloud as promised...the best part? They're all FREE!! This is my fav.

And here we have Mr. Vega (1/2 of Sazon Booya) delivering a hot hot hot moombahcore flip of Zegema Beach's "People Don't"...FIRE...FREE DOWNLOAD!

Some moombah-fied merengue from LA's own Jonny Chino...he flipped Tabaco Y Ron into his own heavy kick style...super blipy and dance floor ready...nearly. It's still unmastered and we here at MTH eagerly await the final version.

Some more moombahcore from friend of the site Valorous...this original track has some catchy ass vocal chops and a mesmerizing synth bass to get you worked up right into the thick of it.

Now two from Diabluma Sound; this Steve Starks tune dropped on Generation Bass earlier in the week as part of their Moombahtonista series (volume 007 with Dave Nada). It's a great read, big props to DJ UMB for educating the masses and a special thanks for the free download y'all!

Now this is from Diabluma founders and moombahton "inventors" Nadastrom...not sure why but they decided to jump back into the soundcloud game and dropped a few tracks including this one, which I don't have in my collection, so I thought I'd share it with my loyal readers.

Sandwich Island Bass are a trio of producers from Maui who have recently been all over the moombah game. This new track is a core-leaning ditty and you can almost feel the ocean breeze pass over you as you take in the mass of sounds.

Here we have a new cut from DC OG: DJ Madd OD. It's a great new song in his signature latin style with plenty of bouncy beats to get the dance floor moving. Plus it's another FREE DOWNLOAD! Which you know I dig.

Last but not least, here's a new track from the crazy duo of DJ EJ and MiniMaxX. This track was premiered by Walmer last week and we're jumping on it too cause it's a heater! And cause we wanna give cred where it's due and these cats are DUE!  Plus it's our fav...FREE DOWNLOAD.

That'll do it for this week's midweek pull, thanks again for checking us out. For all things MTH please make sure to check us out on Facebook, twitter, and send any songs you want us to hear at our email or to our soundcloud inbox! See you Friday for some mixtapes y'all!!

SXSW Massiveness

For those of you holding it down in Austin tonight at SXSW...I'm extremely jealous.  First of all you get to enjoy some amazing BBQ but mostly because you have a chance to go to this wild and crazy event tonight.  All the regulars will be holding it down, Nadastrom in particular will be spinning their upteenth massive, but this will be an especially awesome show as all the big time moombahtonistas who are chillin' at SXSW will surely be in attendance, plus I hear they're giving away free shirts to a select few so get there early!  If you don't already know, here's a little audio preview of what likely will be going down.
