Moombahton

In case you weren't already familiar, as I wasn't until some BLAP friends told me about it at Coachella, I would like to introduce you to a new genre of electronic dance music: Moombahton (pronounced moom-buh-tone), generally defined as Dutch house music slowed down to 108 beats per minute--which is in the range of reggaeton's tempo.

Moombahton was created in the Fall of 2009 by American DJ/producer Dave Nada while playing at his cousin's high school skipping party--which is when someone throws a house party in the middle of the school day to dance, drink, do drugs, etc. instead of going to class. When Nada showed up to play, the kids were listening to reggaeton and Latin music, so he didn't want to mess up their groove by playing faster paced techno/house/club music. He decided to slow down "Moombah (Afrojack Remix)" by Silvio Ecomo & DJ Chuckie to 108 bpm and the party went crazy for it! Knowing that he had made a great discovery, Nada was quick to label his new genre "Moombahton" taking the title of the song "Moombah" and adding "ton" from the ending of "reggaeton."

Diplo describes it as, "A brand new sound, the child of house music and reggae music and dubstep for girls." Doesn't that sound pretty cool? Check it out!

The song that started it all:
"Moombah (Afrojack Remix)" by Silvio Ecomo & DJ Chuckie

Electric Daisy Carnival 2010

My second attendance of Electric Daisy Carnival in Los Angeles was just as epic as my first time last year. I mean how can you go wrong with house music, carnival rides, and neon lights??? You can't.

I do have to say that some of the big names I went to see didn't really bring it as much as I had hoped--Deadmau5 & Benny Benassi--however, I was really impressed by both Fedde Le Grand and Swedish House Mafia.

Of those who preformed at EDC this year, here are some of their songs you should check out:
