I know you people didn't think we were done with #TBT just because we took one measly week off. No no no. #TBT is without doubt one of the best holidays on the calendar. I sandwich it between Christmas and Thanksgiving, directly behind Halloween. This holy day comes every week and it gives us an excuse to listen to electronic music that is actually good. No more shitty house tracks! This week features the dirty dutchmen Chuckie , who, in my opinion, was one of the best DJs in the game back at the start of this whole American house [...]

14. Will Young - Echoes The 2011 version of a George Michael album. It took awhile for this to stick with me, but once it did, I was really enchanted. I've never completely enjoyed a Will Young album before. His music has always been too... well... boring for me. With Echoes , though, he struck the perfect balance between ballad and uptempo, organic and electronic. The best "grown up" [...]

"Let me see your body move" Mohombi is really setting the standard for RedOne produced music right now. In addition to a solid album, tracks keep springing online that suggest he’s just getting started. The catchiest of them all (and really, one of the catchiest songs of the year) is Maraca . It’s ridiculously repetitive, but that little “maraca-ca-ca” bit in the chorus just hits you like a ton of bricks even after the first listen. It’s less a song than a party squished into three minutes of sound. And although this kind of shallow [...]

Mohombi , just in case you weren't already aware, is the Swedish-Congolese Cherrytree artist responsible for "Bumpy Ride," the 2010 smash (which is basically just a cover of Kevin Lyttle 's "Turn Me On") that hit Top 10 in, like, every country except America. After churning out his debut record MoveMeant in February of this year (as well as a few international singles, including "Coconut Tree (feat. Nicole Scherzingimfromhawaiier )," which will be played during the processional at my wedding), the singer is already working toward a follow-up, beginning with the release [...]

Moroccan/Swedish hit producer and pop maestro extraordinare RedOne is featured on the cover of this week's issue of Billboard , and talks to the music magazine about some of his current projects (Jennifer Lopez, U2) and his break-through work with Lady Gaga. RedOne has been a driving force behind Lady Gaga's global success and any coverage he gets is more than deserved. The article does not explore his work with Mohombi , Porcelain Black and Zander Bleck , three very exciting new artists that RedOne is helping to develop, write and [...]

"I've been flying all around the world" I've always had a huge soft spot for afro-inspired pop music. I think it's some combination of listening to Paul Simon's Graceland as a toddler/small child and being obsessed with the Lion King several years later. Whatever the reason, I gravitate towards the stuff like crazy. It's the reason I loved Tinashe's Zambezi so much last year and why a few of the afro-inspired tracks from the Mo's second album (and Nicko's subsequent solo material ) sent me [...]
Lui si chiama Mohombi Mezembe Mupondo , in arte solo Mohombi . E'nato in Congo ma vive da sempre in Svezia ed è uno dei nomi nuovi della musica europea. Dietro di lui c' è RedOne, l'autore e produttore marocchino trapiantato in Svezia che ha scritto le parole di quasi tutti i maggiori successi mondiali di gente come Lady Gaga, Mika, Alexandra Burke, Enrique Iglesias . "Bumpy ride", il singolo che vedete qui sopra, ha sei mesi ma ne parliamo perchè in questi giorni è stato rilanciato dall'uscita dell'album che ha anticipato ovvero "Movie meant", [...]

Some days, I feel like I know very little pop music. While I know who Lady Gaga is, my thirteen year old had to explain to me who RedOne is (co-writer of "Poker Face", among other things) and that he has formed his own record label, 2101 Records (which is distributed through Universal). RedOne's first signing was Mohombi (another name that meant nothing to me) so I looked at some of his YouTube videos and the views for these videos are ranging between 2M - 26M (for "Bumpy Road"). Mohombi has a fascinating [...]

Know what 24-year-old crooner Mohombi has been up to lately? You may have noticed him popping up here and there—on Far East Movement's Free Wired track "She Owns The Night" or alongside T.I. and B.o.B on Quincy Jones' "Sanford And Son", off Q Soul Bossa Nostra . Recently a new RedOne-produced song from the Swedish-Congolese singer, called "Coconut Tree", surfaced, and he gets a little backup on it from Fabulous fox Nicole Scherzinger. RedOne was also behind [...]

Swedish-Congolese rapper Mohombi (as you do) has recorded a track with Nicole Scherzinger . The RedOne-produced ' Coconut Tree ' concerns beach-based romance beneath a coconut tree, and sounds entirely appropriate on a grim 2nd of January in the UK. One can only hope that it's currently being marketed to an Australian audience, who can actually see the sun at the time of writing. Mohombi's throwaway eurodance sound with cheesy lyrics might not feature in any 'best of lists' come 2012, but you may find yourself humming along in July when it inevitably invades the [...]

Singer/songwriter and RedOne protege Mohombi is back with his third single, " Dirty Situation ," featuring Akon on guest duties. Anyone getting a sense of deja vu here? It all sounds very " Taio Cruz " to me here, not that it's a bad thing. Taio Cruz knows a little bit about hits, considering he's successfully crossed over from the UK with #1 and #2 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 (" Break Your Heart ," " Dynamite ") not to mention a Top [...]

If you've ever had anyone tell you something was impossible, go right now and tell them Quincy Jones turned the Sanford & Son theme song into a legitimate banger. With assistance from The King and sweet Bobby Ray , the five-time Grammy-winner reaffirmed he knows way more about manipulating music than pretty much anybody on the planet with this playful, piece of pop parody. Red Fox probably wouldn't praise, but quality nonetheless. Download - Quincey Jones Feat B.o.B, Mohombi, Prince Charlez & T.I. [...]

Whatever your feelings are on powerhouse producer/songwriter RedOne , there's no denying his ability as a bonafied hitmaker. Sure, there are critics who say EVERY RedOne production sounds just like the last one but I'm going to go ahead and say... I DON'T CARE .
