Mad Decent is getting full on behind Moombahton this summer. Dave Nada, Moombahton godfather, just put out the Blow your Head comp, dudes like Dillon Francis and Maluca are throwing around some heaters, and now Diplo just put out his Moombahton mix tape. It mashes everything from Ludachris to Beastie Boys to the Bangles with heavy MMBTN edits from Toddla T to Skrillex to DJ Ayres. Put it on and get yoself sunburnt.

Here’s a new live set from our Atlanta based homie Black Dominoes. He closed out the Mad Decent WKND party last week at the legendary Chase St Warehouse with a 3-5am set after a lineup including Paul Devro, Depressed Buttons, Benzona, and DJ HAHA. Check out the mix and the video from Mad Decent below.

Lemme give y’all a rundown on what’s going on right now (as I type this post). It’s 4:48AM and I’m at the college library. Head buried in books? No no, even with two finals starting in about 3 hours, studying has yet to go down. Instead my adderall consumption has led me to focus my attentions on music rather than words, notes, definitions, theories, and other such bullshit. So, in honor of the great standard under which all student-kind unite, I present to you the fruits of my refusal to do anything productive in the form of a short little mix done 100% via mousepad.
Easy listening disco and house music with a few throwbacks, a few classics, and a few gems you won’t hear anywhere else. It’s officially summertime (well, for me in like 6 or 7 hours it is), and that means good vibes you guys. Tracklist will just be a secret for now, but if you really really wanna know holler and I might throw you a bone or two.

Unforunately, Zinc is being a tease and not releasing a tracklist, an absolute cruelty when you drop a mix this big. But, if y’all wanna know any specific tracks, holler and I’ll see what I can do!
German producer and DJ Malente has been active since the late 90′s and has been blowing up the scene since the mid 2000′s. He’s released material on just about every big electro label, from Southern Fried to Fool’s Gold to Dim Mak to his own label No Brainer. Dude has had absolutely top notch productions in everything from disco to house to electro, with HUGE tracks like 2009′s I Like It (fantastically remixed by Riva Starr). He’s collaborated with artists like Dex of Acidkids, Azzido Da Bass, Moston, and Jay Robinson (the Jay from Jay & Supabeatz).

Louis Brodinski, otherwise known by just his surname, is the creator of club monsters like Arnold Classics and has collaborated with artists like Mumdance and Noob on big tracks like Eurostarr and Peanuts Club. He’s also worked with Yuksek as the superstar disco duo The Krays, one of the most hyped disco acts of the year. But his productions, while fabulous, aren’t really what this dude is famous for. He’s internationally known more for his taste in music and his spectacular DJ sets, a pretty goshdarned awesome thing to be famous for.

M.I.A. is so weird. You have to love it. The countdown is over, and Vicki LEEKX was released today just in time for the New Year. I’m listening to it right now, and I’m hearing a lot of apocalyptic anti-money, anti-police, anti-technology angst. It really makes you wonder what her kid’s going to be like.
Cop this tape for free below and get ready to get weird:
“VELVET is a different sort of mixtape than we’ve made in the past. We focused on smooth, dark blends in a single key. Pair with Courvoisier.”

Club music. Loved by many, hated by many. Produced almost exclusively by use of samples like Lyn Collins‘ Think About It and Gaz‘s Sing Sing, club music like Baltimore club aka bmore club and Philly club, is intensely repetitive and almost everything has the same beat.
But there’s just something about the genre that starts fires, there’s no denying that. While bad bmore is shitty as can be, good bmore gets everybody’s ass shaking.
Nobody’s championed bmore on an international scale as much as Diplo, proprietor of Mad Decent. With artists like Blaqstarr signed to the label, Diplo’s house has the power to keep the genre alive and moving forward.
Step 1 is to open the ears of listeners across the globe, and it looks like they’ve done that with the Brick Bandits Import/Export series of mixes. The Brick Bandits is a collective of club producers including names DJ Sega and DJ Fresh (Gold Dust, ya’ll). Mad Decent’s recently put out a heat-filled 32 minute mix of the Brick Bandit’s tunes mixed perfectly by the people’s champ himself Brodinski.
