Just in case you're not familiar with Moombahton, imagine slowing down a Dutch House or Baile Funk record to 108 bpms and chopping up the vocals, which is what creator Dave Nada did in 2009. Since then, the style has gone from underground to mainstream, with several producers and remixers adding their touch to the new genre. One of my favs is King Kong who has produced an excellent Moombahton remix of Justin Timberlake's Cry My a River. Click here for the free download

Xylos (NYC) and King Kong (Louisville) are playing the Rudyard Kipling tonite, 7/16, at 9pm. The New York Times calls Xylos " vibrant and sinister" and says singer Katy B 'sings smoothly and sweetly'. King Kong might be considered a pleasant opposite of that.. but go find out for yourself tonight at the Rud.

Now for something a little different. Irish Electronic act King Kong Company have made a really nice video for their tune Uncle Trouble and it's a song I've really enjoyed listening to. http://www.facebook.com/KingKo ngCompany
Gorilla Zoe is about as hood as it gets. His style is just straight raw and hardcore and I dig it. His previous album "Don't Feed Da Animals" was one of my favorite rap albums of recent memory, and this album is sure to follow suite. Here are some songs from his new album "King Kong". Gorilla Zoe - Your Bitch Gorilla Zoe - My Shawty Gorilla Zoe - Main Thing

Words By Greg Whitt Sounding like an old school cabinet-style arcade game gone berserk, El Prez's "I'm Gone (King Kong)" is not the typical weed-anthem. Culled from his appropriately fast-food inspired mixtape, Animal Style! , The Inglewood, CA native's energy is much more "get up off your ass" than "puff puff pass." Utilizing a well-placed vocal sample from The Luniz' classic, "I Got 5 On It," Prez has some bouncy, no frills fun on the Space Invaders meets Space Cakes production. Beatsmith Ro Blvd exorcises [...]

Moombahton has been picking up quite a bit of steam lately in the EDM world. The Dutch house-turned-reggaeton subgenre got its name from American DJ/producer Dave Nada who played the Chuckie & Silvio Ecomo track Moombah at 108bpm at a party he was DJing in 2009 in Washington, DC. The subsequent sound was dubbed moombahton, and now everyone from Laidback Luke to Skrillex is spinning the sound that is part latino, part Dirty Dutch, and completely down and dirty. Moombahton tracks have a raw, unpolished quality to them [...]

Usually when you have a collaboration of the likes of Bare and Datsik you're bound to come out with a huge track, so it's no surprise that their project King Kong is, for the lack of a better word, KING KONG SIZED . It's like that new Treinta starbucks size drink x10. F**king humongous. Press play for raging. Don't press play and be lame. Bare & Datsik - King Kong [ RAAWWWWWRRRR ] BONUS LOGIK?! new datsik is [...]

Today I have for you some beautiful wobbles that will surely get your head bobbing . First we have Datsik's new banger King Kong with Bare which is a bass booster and is pretty fast pace but I feel that the wobbles blend nicely with the melody. I feel most artist collaborate and then one takes over the other sound wise. You can see the nice blend of both in this track. There's just something about Legend of Zelda Remixes I just love and I rest my case with [...]

New dubstep anthem for all you headbangers out there. This track has been leaked around the internet for a few weeks now and today the full version was finally released by the two dubstep producers, Bare and Datsik . Beware, this one BANGS.
Whether you like it or not, the dubstep community is growing at a landmark rate (Proof: Google Trends ) and, as a result, is also becoming increasingly mainstream. Many claim that dubstep has recently served as a safe haven for ex-rockers to enjoy electronica, but most don't know that the genre has been around for decades, first originating in Jamaica circa the 19902s. More recently, pop artists such as La Roux , Rihanna , Britney Spears , and Ke$ha have all worked dub elements into their radio hits, adding a bit of sass [...]

Here is another classic grinder tune from Datsik and Bare. It has been floating around on the internet for a little while but here is a better quality version that has leaked out a few days ago. You can also expect posts to be more frequent again after a bit of a break due to exams and stuff, so expect some more tunes. Bare & Datsik - King Kong (320)
