Music - Dubstep - Kotch



Click here for Kotch on facebook
This is a remix of Dub fx's Step on my trip by Kotch, with it heavy pounding bass line and light tight snares it get my hair on end and my head nodding every time, as do most of Kotch's tunes.
Kotch is a DJ/producer from Devon,UK. His production is clear and clean and his roots seem to lie in Dubstep, but his more recent tune a remix of Bucovina is in the Eectro/Balkan swing genre and is just as good as Step to my trip, I love the Swing/Balkan sound with a deep fat bass line, with over 4000 plays on sound cloud its available for download via his facebook page, expect to here this tune out on a dance floor near you.

Vj - Rastamouse - Me






Rastamouse is a British animated stop motion entertainment series that is aimed at children under six years of age. It features a group of crime-fighting special agents named Rastamouse, Scratchy and Zoomer, who are all mice and who solve mysteries and have adventures. The first of the 26 episodes of the initial series was shown in the afternoon of 31 January 2011 on CBeebies, a UK BBC channel. From 7 March 2011, the programme was repeated in the early mornings, on BBC2. The second series started on 11 July 2011, on CBeebies.Its excellent. Due to my love of music and Rastmouse this video came about.

Music - Moombahton - Mackai


Mackai is a producer who hails from Sydney, Australia who has got me into a Genre of music called Moombahton. Moombahton is a fusion of House with Reggaeton - Reggaeton blends Jamaican musical influences of dance hall, with those of Latin America, such as salsa, Latin hip hop, and electronica. It is Electro house with the tempo of Reggaeton,around 108-112 Bpm. It was invented in 2010 by American DJ and producer Dave Nada.I have always love Reggaeton but felt it was missing something and was too vocal and not enough fat wobbling bass Moombahton is a step in the right direction.

I didn't like or understand Moombahton till i heard Mackai, so far Mackai hasn't made a tune I dislike .The two tunes I listen to most are Carny and his remix of Funk D's Legendary both get me moving with their hypnotic Latin drum beats and pulsing bass. His production is clear and I'd love to hear his tunes on a big sound system. Check him out on Sound Cloud or click the image for Facebook page.
