Quba - The next big thing

 

You probably never heard of Quba. He's a new-to-the-scene Romanian EDM producer. His talent immediately caught my attention, and from what I saw after i researched about him a little more, I was not the only one. He also got the attention of the grammy-awards winner Skrillex.

His first official release was a remix of Dada Life's Happy Violence track, which you can hear on his youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/QubaOfficial/

He recently released a teaser for his debut EP, called Inception, and I got to admit that every single track on that specific album is going to rock the clubs around the world. If you don't belive me, be my guest and check it out at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwiYuObnhgI&feature=plcp

There is not much to be said about this guy, but he is surely the next big thing in dubstep. Tell me what you guys think about this dude in the comment section below. Cheers!

Moombahton and Moombahcore – The future of Music

What is Moombahton and what is even Moombahcore ?



In 2009, Dave Nada (Producer and DJ) had planned to play Electro - House (around 128 BPM) at the "School-Skipping Party" for his younger cousin, but he realized that the attendees were dancing to reggaeton (which is usually 108 - 112 BPM). He solved this problem by slowing down the Afrojack remix of "Moombah" ( by Silvio Ecomo & DJ Chuckie) from 128 BPM to 108 BPM.


The term Moombahton was born (the fusion of the track "Moombah" and the genre "Reggaeton" created this new term), but the concept of combining reggaeton percussions with electronic music goes back much farther (examples of Artists are Diplo and Munchi).

Very typical (not a must) for Moombahton is the Reggaeton drum-pattern. It creates a hip shaking effect, which is the reason why it is so popular on the dancefloor. Here is a very basic drum pattern to understand the difference to House:

 Here are some Moombahton tracks: 

Dillon Francis – Masta Blasta




Dillon Francis & Kill the Noise – Dill The Noise


Now, it´s time for some Moombahcore :)


Moombahcore (usually 110 BPM) is a SUB-GENRE of Moombahton. Basically it is Moombahton with influences by "aggressive Dubstep" and Dubstep elements, such as Wobbles, Growls, Mid-Range Basses and FM-Synthesis. It feels like it is "Sped-Up-Dubstep" from 70 BPM to 110 BPM.
Personally as a Electronic Music Producer I think it is the perfect tempo for "Dubstep".

Moombahcore is neither too fast nor too slow, different to Dubstep, you can actually dance to it instead of just banging your head , and it still got the punchy Dubstep Snare.
Artists such as Knife Party, Skrillex, Datsik, Dillon Francis, Diplo and many others helped this Sub-Genre to grow.

Here are some Moombahcore tracks:



xKore – Everybody Rock


Knife Party - Sleaze (feat. MistaJam)

Diplo – Barely Standing (feat. Datsik & Sabi)

Mau5trap – We are Friends

So the summer break is over for us back at Goldmyr, I hope you didn’t miss us too much. With so many things happening around the EDM scene, it’s hard for us to keep track of everything that’s being released, especially since we were like 2 months away.

Anyway, one release really got my attention. As much as I love mau5trap for it’s good selection of music that varies from Glitch Hop to Electro-House, there is yet another aspect that makes me fall in love with this label. It’s the fact that they promote new and unknown artists. And their latest EP does JUST that.
The artists promoted on this compilation EP are:

Tom Neville: I really enjoyed his progressive house track, even though I’m pretty sure I never heard of him before. It’s nice to have another talented producer around the scene, though he needs a lot of improvement.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cGMkJBtrKM

Tom Staar: The same story as the above guy, though I like his track a little more than Tom Neville’s. But that’s my opinion, I may just like it more because it sounds more like mau5. You never know.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6rTLqXebM8&feature=relmfu

James Njie: Most of you already know this guy from the compilation EP released on the same label, Meowingtons Hax Tour, where he had two of his tracks showcased. Nevertheless, his track is one of the better ones on the album, James once again proving me that he is one of the better producer out there.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZwkouMEJlg&feature=relmfu

Heat Maxwell: The EDM enthusiasts may have already heard about Maxwell and his impressive remix of Gotye – Somebody That I Used To Know. While he wasn’t an extremely good producer when he released that, I can tell that he improves. In my opinion, uprising is the best track on this compilation EP. Good job Maxwell, we want to see more of the same in the future.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfHy_TsVMY0

Born Freak and Buddygirl: I put these two up together because they are so similar. These two young producers are the future of progressive house. And I am not talking about the boring, club style progressive. I am talking about the real, chill out one. Their tracks left me speechless.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOOJYlqvsFU&feature=relmfu

River Accorsi: Wow. This guy. His DnB talent is out of this world, if not even out of this universe. It’s amasing what a guy can do with one bassline and a basic beat. Just. Intense. I recommend checking this out by yourselves, I’m too into the bassline to tell you about the whole track right now *hypnotized*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi0gT6G4yP8&feature=relmfu

Kairo Kingdom: I’m gonna be straight here. I never heard this kind of glitch-hop before. Maybe because the only glich-hop I listen to is from Opiuo. Not really sure. But this track is simply catchy, and I bet the real Glitch-Hop fans out there will agree with me. You will… don’t you?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yvgOfODo_A&feature=relmfu

Henry Gould: He’s not that young, but his producing skills are still good. He is not going to be the next Tiesto, but he’s on track. This guy scared me a little bit. Not sure if it’s because he looks like that guy from the Harry Potter series (the bad one that had the smeagol like thingie as a pet) or because his track’s title is taken from a porn movie gone wrong. Either way, it’s worth checking this guy out in the near future.

So that pretty much concludes it. Tell me what do you guys think about this EP in the comment section below. See you around!
