Moombah Tools for Tools

Sorry again for my extended absence!
Shiz was going all over the place with the WSN EP, Lost a years worth or tunes & edits from a hard drive crash and was super busy over the silly season!

Today I have for you a bunch of edits I've been using for the last couple months. Some of them simple, some of them complex & some of them not even mine!
But this post is all about sharing Moombah love & making Moombah tunes more accessible to the 128bpm Dj (& crowds)

108 - 128BPM
Fix Up Galactic (Emoh Instead Edit) - 2manydjs, Beastie Boys, Dizze Rascle, Herbie, Inxs, Skeet Skeet
Big credit to 2manydjs. I remade something I heard of theirs (that I couldn't find anywhere) & added more samples & fun stuff.


110 - 128BPM
Hollaback Girl (Emoh Instead Edit) - Gwen Stefani Vs R3hab
I usually loop the vocal for a couple bars then let it roll into the r3hab booty. This ones for the ladies.


128 - 110BPM
Que Que Money (Emoh Instead Edit) - Diplo & Dillon Francis Vs Munchi x Caspa
I love que que, but it was a bit drawn out for my taste, so I've only used the good bits!
Also The "wheres my money" hook gets the kids fist pumping!


128 - 110 - 128BPM
My Dick (SPENDA C & KAYLI Bootleg) - Mickey Avalon
Someones probably already posted this on here.. but i dont care


128 - 110BPM
Simon Pop Pussy (Emoh Instead Edit) - Duke Dumont Vs Pharoahe Monch Vs Sazon Booya
It's all about aggression.


110 - 128BPM
Hey Freak (2Deep & Rawb Personal Bootleg Mix!) - Angger Dimas & Gianni Marino
The most boss edit I've ever heard.


105BPM
21st Century Embody (Emoh Instead Edit) - SebastiAn
Great for an intro, or to break up your set, with some down tempo beats.


BONUS
110BPM
Lip Gloss (Emoh Moomb Edit) 2Deep x MikiX Vs Lil Mama
Moombah Party tool

Dill The Noise

Two of my favourite producers Dillon Francis and Kill The Noise teamed up to this bring you this moombahton banger. If you have heard anything from these two before then you know that there isn't really much to say to hype this track up... Just download the fucking thing, you will not be disappointed!

Earthquakey People (Dillon Francis Remix)

Steve Aoki's latest hit 'Earthquakey People' gets a remix by Smidgem regular Dillon Francis. As you would expect he brings the tempo back to 110bpm to aqquire that moombahton sound and well, you really just need to listen to this one LOUD..

Pick this monster up on Beatport or iTunes

Steve Aoki feat. Rivers Cuomo - "Earthquakey People (Dillon Francis Remix)" by ultrarecords

Dillon Francis - I.D.G.A.F.O.S

Dillon Francis' brand new single I.D.G.A.F.O.S (I don't give a fuck or shit) is finally out today. This guy is seriously about to take the world by storm purely because he is pushing these hybrid moombahton beats that are so damn fun.

Head on over to beatport to pick this one up... Do it now!!

I.D.G.A.F.O.S. - Dillon Francis by DILLONFRANCIS

Back To The Lab Again

Appoligise For my extended absence...

The last couple months have had me deal with a law suit from sesame street, a change of Dj name, the strenuous task of completing an EP to a deadline, all the while trying to live my double life as a Djing accountant.

Among all the chaos a lot of good things have come. First & foremost, stumbling on some quality tracks


DL Here: Wat? The Funk!, Laney - Smurf Be Runnin

I can't get my head around how awesome this track is. It's big, it's tight, it's clean, it's dirty, it makes me laugh & it gets me in to mood for good times.
Super airy chords, sustained female vocal hits & tight kick & snare set the mood of the into. Muching in at 28 seconds, is a wacked out delayed synth line, consisting of a messy hoover top layer & clean sine low end.
My fav parts is at 1:49. Tight kick & snare, vocal stabs & an epic clean sub baseline.




Al B Sure 'Night+Day' (AC's moombahsoul mixdown) [ Heartbreak presents Moombahsoul Vol 3 ] by AtlanticConnection

DL Here: Al B Sure - Night & Day (AC's Moombahsoul Mixdown)

Found this on the new moombah soul comp. Was by far my favorite of the bunch.
Great melody & very well produced.






Trading in his dirty birds for squealing monkeys, Claude has come up with a awesome kick, sub & flaw tom groove in chimps. I wasn't the biggest fan of the grungy synth the comes in until I saw this video ;)

Here's a little edit if your just down for the groove.
DL Here: Claude VonStroke - Chimps (Emoh Instead 'No Synth' Edit)




7. Golden Super by Jan Driver

DL Here; Jan Driver - Golden Super (Original Mix)

Fresh from his new album & soon to visit our shores, Jan Drive has been making some amazing tunes. From his epic 'Gain Reaction' (check Dillon Francis' opener @ this years Mad Decent Block Party) to the bigroom funky sounds of golden super.





Rusko - Cockney Thug (Chong Remix)
There's a heap of these 'dub/moombah edits' going round, but Chong's is solid. keeping all the intensity & bass of the original with a moombah groove.


Peace Out

Emoh

Dillon Francis

Almost out of nowhere, Los Angeles’ Dillon Francis has broken from the throng of young electronic music dj/producers. With a stream of world-class remixes and releases, Dillon has caught the attention of some of the top players in club land, including Steve Aoki, Diplo, Will I. Am, Drop The Lime, Sinden, and Tittsworth to name some. In less than a year his blistering productions have been heavily supported by Major Lazer, who opened their show with “Westside!,” a Dutch House-flavored monster that was consistently rinsed by top djs on both sides of the pond, including Sinden and Steve Aoki. The tune is finally seeing a proper release on Diplo’s Mad Decent label, where Dillon will be releasing his “Masta Blasta” EP as well in the near future.. From his first dubstep release on Play Me Records, the heavy “Take Me High” peaked at No. 13 on the Beatport dubstep chart and was played in full by Rusko in every one of his sets for his current OMG tour. In the coming months, Dillon will have releases on Mad Decent, Dim Mak, Top Billin’, as well as Plant Music, where he will be releasing his next club EP. At ease behind the turntables and in the studio, in the electro world and in dubstep, Dillon is what you would call an open-format electronic dj who sees no delineation between making music and playing it. He has gotten huge support from the most important dance music blogs (Dim Mak, Mad Decent, Discobelle, Gotta Dance Dirty) ever since releasing his first bootlegs last year, and 2011 promises to be Dillon’s breakout year. The whole Smidgem team have been melting over this guy these past few months. Stay up to date with his Soundcloud here for all his latest and greatest..

I got hold of these two tracks yesterday and both have been on constant replay.

Both of these come with my highest recommendations

Chase & Status - Hitz (Dillon Francis remix)

CSS - Hit's Me Like A Rock (Dillon Francis remix)

Check this brand new one.

Producer of the year?

Im calling it..

Calvin Harris - Feel So Close (Dillon Francis Remix) by DILLONFRANCIS

Beat The Weekend part. 17

Plenty of bass and the typical J Rabbit curve balls he always throws in.
J Rabbit - Mr Balloon Hands

Monster! Monster! is his name, this guy is making serious tunes and from what i can gather he is doing it from gameboys and kids toys?? None the other this track is banging the chick vocals do it for me.
Take It Back - (Moster!Monster! Remix)

Pushing the boundaries between dubstep and electro with this one nothing wrong with that though.
The Chaotic Good & Orville Kline - Game Over

Hip Hop being one of AC Slater's main influences he puts his fine touch to this awesome original turning it into a club banger.
Chris Brown - Look At Me Now (AC Slater Remix)

Here is a grimey Moombahton remix of Busta Ryhmes' tune dangerous
Busta Ryhmes - Dangerous - (Run DMT Moombahton Remix)

An Assortment of Awsomeness

A few mid week tunes to get your motor running 'n' shit!

First up Dumme Jungs have turned a monster into a monster from the year 3000. They labeled this as 'future shit' and it most certainly is. I can't get enough of the drop in this one it's stupidly massive. This is a 128kbps version...you can pick up the 320 and the rest of the Invasion EP here. I highly suggest you do with names like Figure and Trumpdisco on the remix bill this is guaranteed 5 stars!

F.O.O.L - Invasion (Dumme Jungs Remix)


I can't sing enough praise when it comes to this guy. Dillon Francis is just straight up a master of his craft. His ability to make tracks in every genre so well is something to be envied by every producer out there. Here is a smooth and funky Moombahton track that he dropped a few weeks back and a cruisy mellow Dubstep track that is hot off the press, both....amazing.

Toddla T - Take It Back (Dillon Francis Remix)

Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne & Busta Rhymes - Look At Me Now (Dillon Francis Remix)


Now if that was a bit mellow for you then prepare your face to be melted. Canadian Andy's iLL has re-worked the theme song from the movie 'Requiem For A Dream' and turned it into an absolute destroyer of a Dubstep track. When I first heard this I though I was having a brain aneurism, but it turned out to be the bassline...ladies and gentlemen....this is heavy fucking shit!!!!


Requiem for a Dream (Andy's iLL Dub fix) <-----------Kahblammo!




This next tune is, well, pretty rad! Jack Beats smashed it with their newest single 'All Night' and the equally successful remix by Skream. Now the duo have returned the favour and made a fantastic remix of Skreams new one. A bit of a different direction than their previous stuff but none the less ....awesome!

Skream - Where You Should Be (Jack Beats Remix)


A little while back I really wanted to post Le Castle Vania's remix of 'Is You', however Jamie beat me to it. Needless to say I was super pissed yet equally pumped because Jamie and I were unknowingly on the same hot tip. Anyway...Le Castle Vania has done it again, this time with the help of Computer Club. This was made for the impending U.S summer but I think it will do really well warming us up here down south this winter.

Dj Falcon & Thomas Bangalter - Together (Le Castle Vania & Computer Club


Skrillex.

Skrillex - Disco Rangers <--------Super awesomeness to the max!!!! 




I'm sure by now everybody has heard of Crookers new collab project Dr. Gonzo. Their debut tracks have certainly been getting some mixed reviews. I personally can't get enough of it, just super fun, well produced songs that are guaranteed to get a dancefloor pumping...especially this one...it's plain stupid fun. Springer, boing boing boing boing...


Dr. Gonzo feat. Crookers, Wax Motif & Neoteric - Springer

And finally a super awesome remix of the ever popular Ellie Goulding's track 'Lights'. Everyone seems to be Dubstepping this song and Comic Strips certainly nailed it with his take.

Music Rules

Yep, music straight up rules. The influx of dope music lately has been phenomenal, I constantly find myself saying my usual "fuck, this is the best song ever" and with good reason, this shit makes you dance! So a few tunes for ya'll to groove to this weekend.

Noisia. These guys are fucking retarded, honestly. Well probably not but their music certainly is and definitely in a good way. This recent Katy Perry remix is just plain MASSIVE. Huge drums, perfectly layered synths, and of course a stupidly awesome Dubstep bassline that surprisingly goes great with Katy's vocals. Katy Perry's breasts. That is all.

Katy Perry - E.T (Noisia Remix)


Still on Noisia this one is well worth your time too. Standard Electro speed, really cool sample and textbook Noisia production perfectness make this one a winner.

Noisia - Red Heat


L.A native and Smidgem favourite Dillon Francis has doing everything 'right' for a while now and his new tune is no exception. Super fun Dubstep with something for everyone. Bright airy synths, cool filtered snare crescendos and a huge bassline all combine to make this one supremely dance floor friendly and just a fuckin' cool tune.

Dillon Francis - Beautician 


I only just discovered Dead C∆T Bounce and all I can say is that I'm a little disappointed that I hadn't done so sooner. These guys fuckin' rock, they get extra points for remixing Ellie Goulding because she is bursting with awesomeness. I posted the Russ Chimes mix of this a while back, this one is very different much bigger and heavier so get it into your speakers A.S.A.P.

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed (Dead C∆T Bounce Remix)


More Dead C∆T Bounce goodness. You're welcome!

D.R.E.A.M - The Noisy Freaks (Dead C∆T Bounce)


You've all heard of Dubtsep supergroup Magnetic Man, right? Well if you haven't the group consists of Skream, Benga and Atwork. Everything that these three do both under their Magnetic Man guise and as their separate entities is just amazingly well done. The Magnetic Man live show is supposed to be mental and I might actually go to a festival if they bring it out to Aus, maybe. Anyway if you missed the boat on this one get amongst this, you won't be disappointed.

Magnetic Man ft. Angela Hunte - I Need Air 




BONUS: Dumme Jungs - Daylight    <-------Kahblammo!!!

Brostep You Ask?

There seems to be a lot of talk lately on whether or not Dubstep has gone too far in terms of noise for the sake of noise. This has been 'dubbed' (see what I did there) by industry heavyweights including Skream and Rusko as 'Brostep'. Now I'm not going to comment on this debate although I feel as I empathise with both sides on this one, so I'll let you all make up your own mind.

What inspired this post was this great remix that I just found by Dillon Francis. He lists the genre as 'Luvstep' and I think that word best describes it, this is Dubstep that even your Grandma would like. This one is really different, so if you like Dubstep for the noise then it's most probably not for you, however if you like low-fi, uplifting, half-time bliss then this one is a must have. It just seems in a market flooded with the noisiest of noise when something different comes along it really is refreshing and for the moment I can't get enough of it.


DWNTWN - Transition (Dillon Francis Remix) by DILLONFRANCIS

Here is an interesting interview with Rusko regarding 'Brostep'.

Also an interview with Skream expressing his dislike for the 'Brostep' scene. (Around 4:09)

Ettiene De Crecy - Hope (Djedjotronic Remix)

Dillon delivers the gold with this one. Dubstep madness

Dillon Francis - Take Me High

This would have to be one of my favourite Skream tracks as its a lot darker and heavier than his usual stuff.

Skream - Raw Dogz

Produced by Benga... so you know its gold! This has been getting plenty of play on Triple J, hopefully they can continue by playing more and more dubstep!!

Katy B - Katy On A Mission

Dillon Francis

Young driver Dillon Francis has come to my attention through Plant Music's EP as a new force to be reckoned with. Last year he put out tracks/remixes from a Dubstep perspective, but after releasing his latest remix of 'Monkey Bars' on Bit Thief, Francis has conquered the bridge into an up-tempo'd electro/glitch/tech scale of things. Dirty Dancers will be able to notice this and compare to the likes of Herve, Crookers and Fake Blood, but also different variations with respect to his massive dubstep work.
