Dead Battery from Innsbruck, Austria brings us his life saving dose of craziness within a sane, sad world. Winner of multiple remix contests that feature the likes of Martin Solveig, Camo & Krooked and High Rankin as his fixation of single choice, Dead Battery has arrived and is refusing to go anywhere. More enlightening than any of the episodes of The Real Housewives Of New York City, Dead Battery aims to electrify and energize till the lights come on (and the music stops rolling). Tracklisting for Spring Mix 2012 :: [...]
Nice Ludacris flip on this Moombahton junt. Copped via Moombah-Thong !
Heaps busy in several Melbourne studios over winter finishing the Cumbia Cosmonauts debut album Tropical Bass Station with fellow Cosmonaut Soup (aka Sopa Loca), it is now time to escape the coming Melbourne heat by heading over to wintry Europe for a short tour this November and December. I finally got my act together to post mixes on soundcloud - here is a Club Mix I've been meaning to do for some months now. It gives you a taste of the direction of Tropical Bass Station, and there are a couple of tracks [...]

Buraka Som Sistema's Hangover was so incredibly dope and it didn't quite get the internet hype it deserved if you ask me. It proved once again their unique ability to create catchy-as-hell-hooks for white people using non-English languages, quite an accomplishment. Scattermusic's own Sabbo just uploaded his take on the track which is somehow even more Kuduro than the original.

People who read this blog need no introduction to SaBBo , Scattermusic released his Modern Primatives EP a little while back, and now SaBBo has returned on the Generation Bass label with a new Moombahton release - The Deepaton EP . Generation Bass describe the release as four tracks of deep, soulful and sexy Moombahton; and that pretty much sums it up. It's moombahton, but it's hypnotic and fun at the same time. Check [...]

The fifth edition of Dj Javier Estrada 's Ritmos Del Mundo Series was released this week which is filled with originals and dope remixes by Sabbo, Matanza, Boyfriend, Ophex, Jay Fay and more. Also interesting is the track "Chupa Bèbè", which is a collab between Dj Javier Estrada and my homies from Curacao aka KiT that features vocals in my native language Papiamento. Listen to some of the tunes below and follow the download link to grab the whole thing. Be on the lookout for Ritmos Del Mundo 5: Part 2 which drops real soon and contains contributions [...]

Extended Scattermusic family member Sabbo has just dropped a mini-mix to promote his new EP coming on Generation Bass . Although there is little information about when the EP will be released, or even artwork, it doesn't mean we aren't super excited to get this release! The EP with be the second volume in the "Gerenation Bass presents Moombah EP" series with the first release coming out about a month ago from Halo Nova Stream the mini mix below and [...]

We're super proud to announce that earlier this week Scattermusic's latest offering, the digital edition of Bin Juice was unleashed through download stores worldwide. It marks our label's journey into double figured catalog numbers with a diverse selection of tracks from our growing family of artists. The aim was to provide a summary of the sounds we've pushed through our first 10 releases with flavours of cumbia, dancehall, techno, house, kuduro, funky, grime and 3ball. Don't be thinking that this is simply a mish mash of tracks from our back catalog, every joint on here is previously unreleased because as [...]

Remember Dominique Young Unique's addictive 'Hot Girl' or maybe 'Show You My Ass' from the "Blaster" EP from last Spring? If not, well pay attention. See XXL, Dominique Clark is a perfect example of a female you could have put in the Freshman Class of 2011. I'm actually having a hard time to grasp why this talented young chick from Tampa that spits like fire doesn't already have a major deal? But my guess is she will not be without one for long since she tore up M for Montreal's showcase at SXSW a couple of nights [...]

Got some time off to finally build a decent length playlist of my usual music style : low keys, funky club beats, experimental, disco [...] but like someone recently tagged his song on soundcloud : genres are for journalists. Thus, just let it flow and listen to a song all the way through. This playlist is all about that considering they each have a different style and a different mood. And as for the quote in this title, some of you will recall this saying by James Dean but he surely wasn't the first one to state the obvious. You [...]

Middle eastern born producer SABBO has just released his new Freaktion EP on New York label Generation Bass Digital and if your a fan of footwork make sure you get your copy now. The EP is heavy on the Chicago Footwork sound and as always showcases his top notch production with classic sampling techniques, big 8082s and plenty of heavy bass. Check out the Vimeo promo video or the EP mini mix on his soundcloud page and grab your copy at Juno download Freaktion [...]

Last weeks biggest track must be Chris Brown's 'Look at Me Now', no matter how much I loath Chris Breezy and the stupid male hegemony that just ignores the fact that he's rotten fruit I simply LOVE the original track, but wait, it gets better! Yes. A Remix. Let's welcome the new week with some bass, snaps and just stupid club frenzy as Sabbo goes ALL IN with this remix (that came to life thanks to First Up! apparently!) Also, this is why I fucking love Soundcloud, just by a [...]

Ceci Bastida is putting the final touches on the US release of her brilliant debut LP Veo La Marea , which will be a bit different than the already out Mexican release. Her Latin Grammy nomination for “Cuando Vuelvas A Caer” (Best Alternative Song) was completely unexpected, but very deserving. The FADER premiered a hot new song with Israeli DJ/Producer Sabbo, also part of Soulico (Exotic On The Speaker is still so hot!) The song has a dangerous feel to it, and there’s enough steam in it to draw a trip from Tijuana to Tel [...]

It was really not all that long ago that i was speaking to Munchi about the idea of a Moombahton compilation. It actually feels like only yesterday, because all of a sudden here is a giant Moombah compilation of past and present gems from the big and quickly emerging names in the still incredibly small Moombahton community. It was originally gonna be a release through Scattermusic , but obviously with all the big samples and copyright issues that would have followed, it [...]

Weirdest vocals I've heard in a while, yet somehow I keep listening to it. Our Perfect Loosers are three and their project was born two years ago in a warehouse in the suburbs of Paris where MC Sigisbert (fashion designer) created his clothes, Mast (graphist from graffiti art scene) was painting, et Waly (DJ and producer) was cooking music. This probably explains why this parisian band is signed on the BKNY label « DJs are not rockstars », home of producers Larry Tee et Alexander Technique (Junior Sanchez, Felix Da [...]

La nouvelle est tombée, le contest Ze Bula Remixes fut un grand succès. Ce sont des remixers du monde entier, tels que Bonde do Zombinhos (Aguascalientes, Mexico), Chief Boima (Oakland, California), Chancha Vía Circuito (Buenos Aires, Argentina), Voltergeist (Ayrshire, Scotland), Sabbo (Tel Aviv, Israel), and Perfect Loosers (Paris, France) qui ont remporté le concours de Akwaaba . The remixes will be release soon on digital and vynil, on Akwaaba music / Mad Decent . [...]

I know all the blogs have made a massive deal about this fact already so I'm going to get it out of the way quickly, Sabbo is from Israel. There I said it, every article I have read on this guy goes out of its way to mention that its incredible that an Israeli DJ isn't making Psy-Trance. Jeeez. Sabbo does not make Psy-Trance, oh dear me no. He makes infectious booty bassy bangers with amazing Bashment MCs such as Zulu and Warrior Queen, thankfully. Spanish Fly is one such banger, its [...]

it's funny how you start these kind of things in a million different ways. i was sort of thinking doing a little like this for a start: "oiih, you there! yeeah, yoou. where's ya think you going? first time here, eyh? well well, bugger off. yeaah, get a long now - take a piss. get out of here, you hear me? this ain't for you, so skip it." intentionally you should get kind of interested in staying since i was telling you to take a piss. it was supposed to catch your attention. reverse effect and [...]
