New mix from Melbourne tastmaker Paz featuring a nice blend of tribal tech, pirate samples, 3ball, barefoot, kwaito, bubblin' etc. We've had some super hot days recently and even though my car's got no air con, this mix makes it feel 5 degrees cooler. Buccaneer - Mutiny Music for Sargasso Pirates by PAZ
You might remember a little while back I commented on a post about a duo from LA called Market Price . Well they split up, but the good news is that the producer of the group is still working on all kinds of electronic music, including some serious moombahton heat. His name is Valentino Khan , and he has some exciting releases set to drop in 2012, let me tell you! I'm really feeling this latest track he sent through to me, which is available for free download [...]

Click here to view the embedded video. Galambo is Chilean musician/producer and folk investigator Bryan Phillips, who recently relocated to Melbourne. Australia is very privileged Galambo has chosen to live in Melbourne, as this is a project connected to the futurist folk scene in Latin America having played gigs with the likes of Argentine genius producer Chancha Via Circuito ( ZZK Records ) and their debut album was produced by Argentinian digital cumbia guru The Peronists . Phillips spent some time in Melbourne in 2006 as [...]
Where to start with Sinden ? His radio show has broken countless club hits, his mixtapes stand head and shoulders above the rest, a talented producer, label owner...... Basically it's no mystery as to why he's such a powerful force within music circles. This Saturday in case you didn't know he's throwing down at Miss Libertines and it's going to be off the hook. Support comes from Scattermusic family and friends [...]
Once upon a time I gave Philippe Cohen Solal (of Gotan Project ) a few CDs of experiments with the Colombian rhythm of Cumbia, which I had sourced from travels in Mexico, myspace, blogs, or directly from producers and DJs in Tijuana, Mexico City, Monterrey, Bogota and Buenos Aires. I figured someone who had very successfully innovated with Tango, would be interested in another similar movement going on with Cumbia. In fact I was so excited about this new twist on cumbia, that in 2008 I started a project called [...]
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 [...]
Nadastrom (Dave Nada and Matt Nordstrom) have released their latest EP via the Scion Audio Visual project. The El Baile Diabluma EP is a 6 track EP containing 4 originals and 2 remixes (from Tittsworth and Munchi). With this new EP, the pair have shown off their first original moombahton productions, and they don't disappoint. After listening to this I can't wait to drop some of these on a big club system. My favourite off the EP is the Diabluma Theme , it features a perfect balance of screaming leads and bleep, 808 boom and [...]
Click here to view the embedded video. I have been meaning to introduce to this blog for a long time the mastermind behind "the most important Hollywood production in the history of cumbia" (see video above), and more importantly the one and only Cumbia Pilgrim in search of the Temple of San Juanita Chinola all over the world: RANDY SALAZAR JR . Hailing from a city rich in cumbia - Monterrey, Mexico - Randy Salazar Jr. is finally releasing his EP [...]
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.
Just a quick post for the DJ Dodger Stadium video which dropped via the interwebs today. For those who don't know, DJ Dodger Stadium is the alias of Samo Sound Boy and Jerome Potter's (LOL Boys) latest side project. Their highly anticipated debut EP is due early this month on their own new label Body High . In the meantime you can download this edit of Drake they floated on Soundcloud recently to tied you over. DOWNLOAD: [...]
This post is 4 days late unfortunately but there was no way this release was going to pass us by completely at Scatterblog. It's an brand new EP from Schlachthofbronx , released on Man Recordings earlier this week and it might just be my farorite thing they've done yet. Most of what's included is a kind of bounce/cumbia hybrid which turns out to be a pretty damn good idea. I can't imagine very [...]
Today the much hyped collaboration between Mexicans with Guns and Toy Selectah gets released by Friends of Friends . Three varied originals with remixes by LOL Boys , Lorenzo Vektor , HxdB , Shadetek , [...]
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 [...]

In anticipation they're giving away this one track as a teaser, an awesome collision of steel drums and club [...]
The guys over at Man Recordings must be feeling generous today after giving away the awesome VIP edit of Ku Bo 's " Rebola " featuring Joyce Muniz. You may have heard this VIP back in June if you heard Daniel Haaksman's " Funkeiro #1 " mix he did for Electronic Beats, otherwise the original is from the debut 123 Ku Bo released on Man Recordings back in early 2008. Nearly 4 years old this track is still sounding fresh as [...]
