MWP Indian Summer Edition

It's the first week of October and hopefully--for most of you--that means leaves are changing colors, nights are growing longer, and the hunt for halloween costumes has just begun. Out here on the west coast it has been pretty damn hot outside, so much so that August blurred into September and this tenth month of the year seemingly crept out of nowhere to overtake us in our sweaty state. Like the climate, tracks are still coming in hot as ever as we look deeper into the eyes of Autumn and we here at MTH are always eager to share with you what we've found. This week marks the epic conclusion of Marvel's Avengers vs X-Men crossover so here's some tunes from the likes of Drop The Lime, Disgraceland, Riot Earp and more to fill your ears with.

First up,  Dos Lobos' entry into Insomniac's Discovery Project, where they pluck talented up and comers to perform at their festivals.  This entry, as you may have guessed from its eerie nature, is for Escape From Wonderland.

Next, here's another core-leaning moombah-hit, this time from NYC producer Loud Flavor.  The title track from his latest release from Bass Taste, it's some "Wild Bizznizz" indeed...grab the whole single RIGHT HERE.

Philly's finest son, Sköllo with a nice update to the classic "Tarzan Boy"...FREE DOWNLOAD of course so get out your hammer pants and dance your ass off to this at your next house party.

Here's a tasty track forthcoming from Ultra on Drop The Lime's Enter The Nite Versions remix album.  DTL promises it'll be a more "DJ appropriate" retooling of his debut release Enter The Night.

Alright enough of the heavy, dark stuff...how bout a little banda to cheer things up a tad!  Really digging this edit from Sonora, takes me back to alley way BBQs in Long Beach's east side.  FREE DOWNLOAD!

A touch of tech and a real deep bass tone carry us through this next offering from Yung Skeeter; it's a taste of LA funk to set your soul on fire this hot autumn day.  FREE DOWNLOAD!

Fista Cuffs and Majestry teamed up on this track for last year's Sound Of Silence² compilation from Conga Records and now it seems a remix EP may be on the horizon.  Of the 25 or 26 I listened to my favorite has to be this one from Fake Moustache.  Get down!

Some laid back acoustic guitar chops on this moombahsoul remix from Leeway.  The Polish producer finds a nice little sweet spot with José González' cover of "Heartbeats"...perfect cool weather tune.

Riot Earp is TWO FOLLOWERS AWAY from giving this track out for free.  So if you're reading this and not already following the dude on soundcloud please do so for the good of the rest of us!

Had the opportunity to chat with Disgraceland yesterday for our forthcoming episode of the "Don't Be Shy" podcast so I thought I'd share his latest free release.  He's been sitting on this deep-as-hell track for a few months so be thankful he decided to grace us all with it for FREE DOWNLOAD.

A little something for those filthy chicks daggering in their bedrooms.  D-V3KZ sending a shout out to all the sucias out there who may be listening.

Another FREE DOWNLOAD to finish off the set today, this one comes from Mackai who must be quite familiar with the wacky weed.  This late night anthem won't cure your munchies but it'll knock when you throw it on your system for the run to 7-11.

That's it for now, make sure to follow us on soundcloud to catch all our podcasts and mixcloud to listen back to all our radio mixes!  Back next Wednesday with more great new tunes from the Midweek Pull!

New Music Time!

Monday morning comes with a few connotations...an early wake up call for sure--especially after a long weekend of raging--as well as the dreaded first work day of the week.  But lucky for you, Monday morning also means new music from your friends here at the MTH blog.  We've been on the hunt for tracks since last week and are dying to drop them on you, now that it's Monday and I'm fresh as hell in the studio here we go!  This week new stuff from MoonDoctoR, Loud Flavor, DJ Melo and more.

First up, here's an edit by the one and only JFK of MSTRKRFT. This dude is the chopping expert and he proves it time and again, this time flipping Autoerotique's latest, "Roll The Drums". Make sure to grab the EKG EP RIGHT HERE

Yellow Claw are a trio of producers coming out of Amsterdam that you should get to know. There stuff is a little on the wonky side, which is mainly why I'm so drawn to it I guess; check out this remix of their countrymen the Partysquad.

Now for the soul section of today's tracks, starting off with Loud Flavor's latest rework, this time my man Jeff takes on buzzcore sanger Frank Ocean and gives it the 108 treatment. Something about soft keys that work so perfectly for moombahsoul...

This track was brought to my attention via my inbox and I'm really happy dude sought me out cause this thing is dripping with steez and I'm more than willing to drop it on you this morning. Kadkad working the soul out of Justin Martin.

Don Valdez is another name you should get to know, in case you didn't already that is. His latest release, the Burqueño EP is out now and you can grab it RIGHT HERE

Now onto the hood shit...LeDoom and Vegas Banger going mad right here with their rework on Kanye's "Mercy". Huge bass on this one.

Our homeboy Jamaal has been putting out consistently heavy duty tracks and we always wanna show him mad love. Check out Cy Kosis' latest track y'all...the kid's got some talent.

Big Makk giving a hard edge to Ms. Goulding's smooth vocal on this re-up...FREE DL!

Oh my, you know I gotta show some SERIOUS love to the PHX fam. Love waking up to free DLs from the homie DJ Melo, this guy puts out some top notch stuff and he's a legend in the movement. Speaking personally, the homie Pickster is a cool cat, the Gunslingaz killed it at Muevelo last week and I've got extra special stuff from them coming before the end of the month so watch out.

Damn, another heater just dropping into my mail. This is a month old at this point but, still worth blasting out to y'all. There's still a few downloads left so grab it while you can and let Kaptain know where ya found him!

Closing it out this morning, a new track from MoonDoctoR...super glitchy bass track with extra hood pads throughout. This dude is on some other level stuff with this one, be about it ASAP.

Well that's it for this morning. Tons of stuff coming this week so keep it locked on the MTH facebook and twitter pages for the latest and greatest from your heavy music friends over here. Till we meet again y'all.

Back To The Grind...New Music Time!

It's Monday and I'm back in LA...thank goodness, all the rain and cloudy skies was making me a not-so happy camper up in the dirty PNW.  It feels amazing to be back near the ocean and in the bright sun shine of our sneaky little corner or the globe known as SoCal.  In celebration of returning I have compiled--yet again--a tasty selection of new tracks from our favorite up and coming producers.  The best of what our soundcloud dashboard has to offer from folks like Sin Diesel, Paul David, and A-Mac among others.  So, enough of the gibber-gabber, let's get down to business!

Here's a little dancehall flavor from the one and only Riot Earp. The kid is at it again this time teaming up with Hartbreaks for a vibey little remix of the Chromatics.

Dutch duo The Partysquad have been carving out a path of destruction in the game of late...here's a fresh take on one of my favs from them from Italian producers Ackeejuice Rockers.

Loud Flavor is another of my current obsessions and he's just dumped this massive bass driven tune on his soundcloud...a lot of producers are picking up on the trap movement, this is a pretty interesting example of originality in that vein.

Another TX based audio-file, LeDoom has dubbed this remix "Doombahton"...it's some scary shit. See what you think.

HUGE free download from Rot10 homie Sin Diesel. This original track doesn't disappoint, love the syncopated drum patterns (one of my favorite parts about moombahton is how all the drums dance around each other).

Friend of the site, Mendez is known for his moombah-fied reworks of some of pop/hip-hop's latest and greatest and this is yet another example of his mastery. Plus guess what?? It's a FREE DOWNLOAD! Yeeeeeeeee...go grab it and support the homie, he'll be at Muevelo this Friday with his AZ Gunslingaz.

Now how about we swing into some cumbia?? Calgary's favorite son, DJ A-Mac, did a nice little ditty on this Neil Young and Crazy Horse track.

Not really sure what "XXXtreme Dance" means but I can make inferences I suppose. NYCPARTYINFO delivers a little infusion of heat to this already extremely dancy Classixx track.

Here we have another fine citizen of America's hat, Paul David, taking aim at some dembow'd glory and swinging for the fences! Oh yeah it's a FREE DOWNLOAD! So take a listen and contemplate the download, but not for too long cause once it hits 100 it'll probably disappear!

Our last track comes from Think2wice's latest hyped-up midwest producer, Chrome Wolves. This dude is doing some crazy stuff and we'd like to throw our hat into the circle of support!

So that'll do it for the new tunes today y'all...hope this is enough to fill you up between now and Wednesday when we will return with more and more great stuff for you!!  Make sure to check out the MTH facebook and twitter pages for even more updates on stuff we're cooking up for ya!

That Monday Stuff

You're different, Rashad. You're special.

Gah, the weekend, sigh...is over.  Back to the grind.  Back to the 4:45am alarm.  Back to 8 hour work days and not nearly enough time to relax.  Here at MTH it's back to NEW MUSIC!  Yay!  Does new music make your week start off better??  It does for me!  Kicking things off with a new track from the homies 2 Deep, TYBG.


Here's something a little special from :DFace, it's a peak into the electro/house aspect of his production and as usual Garrett lends his vocal talent to this peak time track. FREE DOWNLOAD!

Sandwich Island Bass is an outfit straight outta Maui, their warm climate perspective fits right in with the tropical feel of the moombah sound and we're glad to feature this killer bass driven track today.

Red from The Al Gore Rhythm Method reached out to me last week and I'm happy he did because this track is super catchy. Grab it for free while there are downloads left!!

New Dillon Francis.

DJEJ just dropped his bootleg of Kid Cedek's "Sientelo", it's a little too late for the remix contest but we think he might have been at the top of the table if he'd have gotten this out in time, check it out.

Here's another free bootleg, this time from DOSLOBOS. He switched it up on us and took Astronomar's Jeffree's release to a different place all together.

Here's a funky feeling track from Riot Earp and Noms; it's fighting music for sure.

Big ups to ETC! ETC! on this dope Major Lazer remix...1000 plays in 120 minutes?!

Yet another strange track for ya here on a Monday! Make sure to check out Javier Estrada coming to Muevelo this May!

Fiona Apple flipped? Sure, why not.

Can't get enough of Neki Stranac lately, here's his contribution to 110BPM Vol. 2 which you can grab for absolutely FREE RIGHT HERE.

Gonna end this week's post with a couple of pop reworks, starting off with Loud Flavor's remix of the Diplo produced "Climax".

And finally we have a Gym Class Heroes remix--never thought I'd be giving these dudes press but PrimeTime stepped up to the plate and I'm really digging the drum work he's done setting this track to the 108 dembowed out moombah-style.

Alright y'all that's all for today, hope you're Monday goes extremely well and we'll see you Wednesday with more and more and MORE new music. PEACE!
