Moombahton is a new up'n'coming form of music. I will tentatively call it dance music. It's basically dance music slowed down, and by dance music I include Dubstep, Trance, Techno, Glitch, and Electronic, and by slowed down I specifically mean 108 bpm. The creator of this new style of music, Dave Nada, came upon what he later called Moombahton at a party he was invited to Dj for. The music he, at that point, played was fast paced techno, but upon arrival the guests were dancing to the slower beats of Reggaeton. So in an effort to keep with the theme he took Afrojack's "Moombah" and slowed it from about 130 bpm to 108 bpm, "And God said let there be Moombahton." I congratulate Dave Nada for creating a wonderful new form of music but the torch must be passed on. Dillon Francis can be described in one word, Sick. The more I've listened to Moombahton the more I've realized that there are several very different styles of it. More ambient Moombahton where there isn't really a base drop, which dance music generally revolves around, and then there is Moombahton with really massive base drops. Dillon Francis has the really massive base drops. Coming up alongside DF we have Munchi. Munchi is much softer, less bass, more ambient. Both are incredible so sit back, relax, and Moom.
