MJ Cole & Wiley – From the Drop (L-Vis 1990 remix)

A side clip here:

Polish blog BBQ is offering up this exclusive tune from UK producer Hackman . To be fair, it’s actually a remix of Icelandic producer Hypno, but Hackman’s take on “Telescope” is a midtempo roller with some punchy percussion and nice synths filling out the proceedings.

Grab it here:

Hypno – Telescope (Hackman Remix)

then head over to BBQ for the exclusive mix:

The production duo that bought us the massive funky tune ‘King Riddim feat. Lady Chann’ are due to drop two brand spanking new releases. And they are BIG! The first release is “Lord Of Bashy” and features Rubi Dan on the mic. It will be released on Mixpak Records, Oct 18 2010.

The second release is a 4-track EP titled “King Pigeon EP” on a label also titled “King Pigeon Records”. Collaborating with Serocee on the Bullring Riddim, this pure fire Funky Bashment lick is just asking to be caned on a massive soundsystem! The following three Funky tracks are also just as heavy.

Soon to be released on Blunted Robots. Can’t wait!

ZZK Mixtape Vol. 6 – Douster by Zzk Records on Mixcloud

Found this while looking round mixcloud. They say, ‘This mixtape, composed entirely of Douster’s own productions, shows the evidence of this influence: here the power of Electro is fused, remixed and edited with the rhythmic cadence of Cumbia and Reggaeton wrapped around Baile Funk, Kwaito, Wobble and a bunch of other unclassifiable genres we won´t even try to name.

I agree. This mix is big from beginning to end.

Genre mash-up Moombahton can be described as “Dutch house screwed down to sound like reggaeton’s weird little cousin” but to understand it fully head here where the creator explains exactly how it all came about. It involves bunking school, partying and playing fast music slow.
