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!

The Return of the MWP

After relaxing last week I'm back with a vengeance with more and more and MORE new music in this week's rendition of MTH's Midweek Pull.  Unfortunately for y'all, I'm heading to San Diego for Comic-Con tomorrow so this'll be my last day this week posting stuff up.  Fortunately I'll be making time for the MWP as well as our mixtape blog for this week today in anticipation of downtime over the next few days.  So strap on your seat belts and get ready for some bangers from Gigi Barocco, DJ Melo, JayyFresh, and more!!!  Let's do it...

Y'all know I love me some heavy kick drum and Mackai delivers just that in this team up with Narrator.  This is smash up the hotel room music so take this tune on vacation and run up your room bill would ya?

Out next week on Sol Selectas, DJ Melo's Sol Sauce EP will be a moombah release everyone should pick up.  This dude's been making hits since the start of this whole movement so he's bringing his taste maker sensibilities to Sabo's label which can only produce amazing results...as this track proves.  FREE DOWNLOAD!

I've been trying harder and harder to distance myself and this site from this unholy wave of Trap music that seems to have engulfed the whole of soundcloud and the moombahton FB group.  But with tracks like this it gets sorta hard.  Luminox DESTROYING fools with this one so I just had to post it.

Vegas is NOT ready for this new one from Teen Wolf and Shelco Garcia.  The long time friends/collaborators get together again for a moombah jam that will fill your ears with joy.  Oh snap...it's a FREE DOWNLOAD too!!  So jump on it!!

Jesus...think you've had enough with the bangers today????  WELL TOO FUCKING BAD!  JayyFresh asking you for just a tad big MORE ENERGY with this free track.  I think I'm scaring the folks in the surrounding studios...whilst I'm writing this the soundproof windows are rattling.

Want some more uptempo, heavy bass action??  Well I'm happy to help you with that.  Autoerotique are having a remix competition for their track "WTF" and I think this submission deserves a little bit of attention y'all.  La'Reda driving the nail into their competition's coffins with gigantic bass hammers.

Just when I thought heavy music was moving out and slow, danceable beats were becoming the hottest stuff on the net those damn Bloody Beetroots had to come in and start putting out mosh pit worthy shit like THIS.  Gigi Barocco throws his hat in the circle basically saying, "hey, you wanna rumble??  I'll fuck you up pretty bad little kids."  Support this release, BUY IT HERE.  And the ORIGINAL.

Wow, I'm exhausted now so lets take it down a few notches with a submission from FUKDUP.  Love it when folks reach out to me to share some dope ass moombahton.  There's so much filth out there in the saturated world of the internet so it's nice when a track surprises me.  Good on ya dude!

Well that's all for this week's pull y'all.  Hope you like it, stay tuned to MTH for all your heavy music needs and more!  And if you really, really enjoy what you see here, make sure to connect with us on Facebook, twitter, mixcloud, and soundcloud for all things Metal Top Hat.

Midweek Mayhem

It's my favorite day of the week y'all!!  Wednesday are killer around my studio, tons of stuff to do not a lot of time to get my thoughts out to the world so let's not waste any more and just jump right into some fresh tracks off my soundcloud dashboard!  First up, wanna re-affirm my approval of Ra Cailum's latest out this week on Think 2wice; just an all around solid release BUY IT RIGHT HERE and enjoy a taste below.


I posted a link to the Rolling Stone preview of Thelophilus London's remix EP on the facebook a while back but this is definitely another new release worth picking up, do so RIGHT HERE.

Sticking with this theme of fresh releases, here's Mackai's contribution to Club Cartel's Moombah-heat Vol. 1; grab the whole thing RIGHT HERE.

Now on to some FREE stuff, Pickster One's latest is a dancehall flip of Santigold's "Freak Like Me". Another solid track from the PHX don, always love when my man drops some free tracks on us all, thanks dude!

Sykur are a group of Icelanders who we've featured on MTH quite often and it seems they've hooked up with Dan Le Sac for a fresh remix of their latest output, "Curling". Interesting team up for sure, I've loved watching the evolution of these cats, if you've read this blog since the beginning you'll know I love me some Iceland.

The Eleven is the stage name for Dutch producer Kalok Yeung who chose to drop this track for FREE because it's gonna be sitting on some record company shelf for a few months so grab it while it's hot, hot, hot!

Back to the moombah flavor, love the drums on this one from Vato Gonzalez.  Heavy 110 + scratch work + free download = gotta give it to y'all.

Aside from being one of my fav tracks from the homie David Heartbreak, Arroz Con Pollo seems to be the moniker of a Brooklyn based moombah outfit. This track is perfect for the upcoming warm months so I thought I'd throw it out for all to enjoy.

Now one of the most excellent young producers coming out of Europe today, Bambounou. Been keeping my eye on this dude since Sound Pellegrino's Straight From The Spring release and his stuff never disappoints.

This track just hit soundcloud but has been making the rounds a lot lately...just an all around jam. Remixes from Jay Fay, JWLS, and more coming soon; big up to Craze for dropping this on us today just in time!

Well that's it for today everyone. Hope my selection is to your liking, make sure to check us out on Facebook, twitter, and soundcloud and stay tuned to MTH for mixtapes and a few EPs in these next couple days. Bye for now!

Midweek Pix

Well I figured better late than never to post this week's soundcloud pull; been a little swamped here at the studio so I'll try and make up for it with top notch tracks for your Wednesday night.  Without further BS from me here are some tracks I've been saving up to share with y'all.

I'm not quite sure what's up with all this trap shit I've been bumping lately but there's something about it that I just majorly dig. I'm betting all you folks out in internet land are amused as well--haven't gotten any complaints at least--anyways here's a Dipset re-fix from A Tribe Called Red that I think is a winner!

Heartbreak claims he was just fucking around when he put this little bastard together but by the time he was done he thought it was good enough to blast out for folks to listen and we approve! Not much for the "kandy" scene myself, usually I feel like punching those kids in the face on sight.

I sincerely despise Nicki Minaj and basically everything coming from the Young Money camp of late but Flubba did this remix right. The thought of this biatch getting stung in her most sensitive of areas puts a smile on my face I must say even if that isn't what she was going for.

Mackai going hard on these remix contests so I thought I'd try and help him out by blasting his latest out to you. Love this moombah-fied sucker, nice and steady but also taking shit to a heavy level like you KNOW we enjoy.

Here's another track from Jay Fay's latest release Oops which is out now. This kid just can't miss IMHO; big time support from A LOT of folks in the game as well. Brent Tactic told me this could be his favorite release of the year so do yourself a favor and BUY IT ALREADY!

Next we have a fine gem from north of the border with Calgary's A-Mac teaming up with his homeboy NcLovin who won't need a fake ID to get wasted and spin this track. I have a lot of respect for a producer who includes horse sounds regularly so you know I'm digging this one.

Slowin' things down a little--bringing the sexy back as they say--here's a Tactic remix of R&B superstar  the Dream.  Smooth as silk, the moombahsoul bros are at it again giving you a little something to relax to with your chick.

Last but certainly not least we have yet another jam from this dude Neki Stranac who seems to be on point right now, churning out remix after remix of top quality production...this track is making me thirsty. So that'll about wrap us right on up for this hump day MTH special. Hope you dig all these tracks, make sure to support these artists however possible and at all times remember: 1) wear your seatbelt, 2) drink whiskey neat and, 3) BANG YOUR MOTHERFUCKING HEAD!

A Little CORE for Your Afternoon

Some of this moombahcore stuff is heavy as hell; and y'all already know how I like it...the heavier the better.  Just wanted to rep a few of these new tracks that get me banging my head in the studio.

This might be the HEAVIEST moombah track I've heard thus far. The kid Lightning Eyez atributes the craziness to some combo Cali-kush he's been working with, whatever gets you in the mood I guess!

Not quite as heavy but still worth thrashing about to is the latest from Chooky. This two track EP will get you throwing some body weight around your room if you're not careful so take heed.

Here's the latest from Chicago based producer Valorous who tells me the Chicago scene isn't quite as cracking as he would like. Maybe a smack across the face is what the EDM fans out there need, this is the perfect tune to do said ass kicking to.

Finally we have Mackai beating down Skrillex. Love the heavy guitars in this and the hard ass vocals from Jonathan Davis. SHUT THE FUCK UP! GET UP!

Midweek Soundcloud Pull

Here are a few new tracks we've been jamming too in the studio this week, it's the first installment of MTH's Midweek Pull.  Let's start off with some scary stuff...

Emma Louise - Jungle (Nightmare! Moombahton Bootleg) by Nightmare!
This lurky track from Nightmare! is a downtempo respite for us weary travelers in the world of EDM. The ethereal vocals of Emma Louise tease us into a breakdown and build back up into a ferocious bass line that'll wake you up from the deepest, darkest slumber.
Nightmare - Original Mix by Mackai
Next up is another stunning original from Sydney's own Mackai. It's another in the vein of wobbly, sneaky, scary bass tracks coming from down under and we approve!
N2Deep "Back to the Hotel" (King Kong Remix) DVR001 by kkingkong
Next we have two remixes of the N2Deep classic "Back To The Hotel" coming from Deadly Vipers. First up is from MTH fav King Kong who has recently been causing a buzz in the moombahton movement with features on the 110BPM Collection as well as Generation Bass's Moombahluv 3.
N2Deep - Back To The Hotel (D-V3KZ Remix) by Deadly Viper Recordings
The second rendition comes from SoCal's own D-V3KZ who yet again has a dark take on the classic jam infusing heavy bass with chopped up horns that'll get your party moving.

Sunday Fun-day
