Just to the desk...Moombahton (invented by Dave Nada in DC) is on some serious come up shit. From Mad Decent radio land...this scorcher :
Moombahton is so mad and buzzy and wierd and crazy. We are on its dick here at Mad Decent. We just put out a comp of it. I thought ıt best to make a summer mıx for your house parties where I can put it into a context for all you fine radıo subscribers..
Finally, if you never saw Favela on Blast, his directorial film debut made with his his partner
Leandro HBL, do check it out. Diplo is your tour guide, as he takes you on a journey
through the many artists and communities shaping the "Baile Funk" culture, and documents this vibrant and innovative musical subculture that has emerged in Brazil. Purchase the film for only $5.00!!!
I dunno, maybe there are people out there who shut their ears all day everyday, and their eyes too...they shouldn't do that kind of stuff. One reason is because they might not know that my dude Rusko is ruling the planet right now.
Remember Bassnectar (pictured above)? Shit was unlike anything else when he first was dropping ...and now...well, lets just say I was at Coachella waiting for the shower truck, and I heard a bunch of blonde kids in Sperry's talking about, 'I need some SERIOUS dubstep in my diet today!' Huh? WTF? You thought this shit was ONLY for 1/2 shaved head 1/2 dready head dudes...not anymore.
Ok, enough blabber....just check ol' boy out...oh and also we hit up the Rusko set that day at the Coach...it was fucking bangtastic.
Rusko is on Diplo's record label, Mad Decent, and is currently touring his planet. You can cop his new tape, OMG! ..... HERE..
Well, needless to say, I have been feeling the homie's tracks & steeze for a minute, but what really prompted this post today was the new video for 'Hold On', featuring Amber Coffman...unfortunatly, the embedding function from the site where the video has premiered is not working out correctly...check back and maybe I'll have it working...until then, here is the track...all I gotta say is.. WOW
