The Tropikilla EP will be available in digital shops everywhere on October 1st, 2012.

Artwork created by Kazilla.

The tropical heat of South Florida has lead to the birthing of many bastard offspring of Miami Bass music. In 2012 the sound of reggae, dancehall, dubstep, jungle and reggaeton have fused, creating something new from something old and familiar. somejerk is Miami, and he has demonstrated the culmination of these flavors in the first release from Signaflo, entitled the Tropikilla EP.

“Oh oh oh” is a futuristic dance-hall riddim with bits of chopped up vocals dancing with an irresistible series of rhythm sections, booming bass and wall shaking wobbles. “Tropicannibus” has the sensibility of a modern drum and bass track at reggaeton’s tropical tempo; smoked out but upbeat, this one will get the dance moving. “Uh huh” is melodic and dark but that won’t keep people from moving moving to it’s infectious groove, lush horns and Ed Rush and Optical influenced bass line. “You know” takes on the club with it’s booming 808 bass line and straight ahead drum programming while the chorus lets you know that “my love is what you want”.

Miami’s own JWLS is making us all proud, releasing his “EZEKIAL” track as part of a compilation between Scion A/V and Moombahton Massive.

You can download the entire compilation from Scion A/V starting tomorrow, May 1st.

The compilation EP, Moombahton Massive features producers such as JWLS, Steve Starks, Sabo and Dave Nada (the originator of the genre) working with his partner, Matt Nordstrom under the Nadastrom moniker. This special compilation release will be available for exclusive download starting tomorrow at www.scionav.com.

“Scion A/V strives to remain forward-thinking when it comes to the currents in dance music,” says Jeri Yoshizu, manager of sales promotions for Scion. “With the Moombahton Massive compilation EP, we were attracted to the producers and tracks who made it just that.”

With the original genre’s innovator Dave Nada at the helm of this release, the EP is sure to provide soca grooves and burgeoning build-ups wherever it will be played.

One of Orlando’s favorite DJ’s shares an edit she’s done and takes the time to answer a few questions for FloridaMoombahton.com for our first interview. Download her moombaton edit of Lady – “Twerk” .

You can catch Ma-LESS every Friday in the Moombah Room for [Fuk'd] Fridays at Vain Orlando and to find out more about Ma-LESS you can visit these links:

1. How did you come across moombahton and what were you DJing before you were DJing moombahton?

I came across moombahton when my boyfriend showed me a blog post that had interviewed Dave Nada and had all of his first moombahton tracks (Moombahton, Riverside, Seductive Sound), I read the article and downloaded all the tracks, and I couldn’t stop dancing around my house, I was instantly hooked. Then during WMC in 2011, I went to the Blow Your Head party at Bar (RIP). I was late but managed to catch the end of Dillon’s set, Toddla T’s set, and Diplo’s set as well. I remember looking around and I saw wall to wall, nothing but mostly women dancing, it was hot, it was sweaty, it was sexy and just amazing. I completely fell in love with moombahton that night. I never really had an interest in DJing prior to that, but afterwards I had my boyfriend teach me. I was fully content on just making mixes for my own pure enjoyment, I had just started grad school and was primarily focused on finishing school and starting my career. BUT in July of 2011, I was thrown onto an event (Nite Vision) and ever since then it’s been this amazing snowball effect that has led to where I am today. I can DJ other music, electro house, kuduro, & even dubstep, but I started out with moombahton and it’s definitely what I enjoy playing the most.

2. Now that you’ve played in a couple of cities, how do you feel about the scene on a larger scale?

I had no idea how moombahton was being perceived on a larger scale until I went to the HARD Moombahton Massive in Miami during WMC this year. You ask around and people say it was the most banging party during WMC; it was sold out, it was packed, and the energy was absolutely insane. Seeing how much moombahton has grown in one year from Blow Your Head at Bar, where the capacity is what? 200-300 people? To selling out Grand Central the next year, I truly feel this is only the beginning and that it’s only going to continue to grow and grow. One of the things I love about moombahton and the movement, is there’s this strong sense of family, everyone is so chill, nice, respectful, and supportive of one another, and I just hope as the scene gets larger and larger we can continue to have that strong sense of family.

3. Moombahton is becoming very popular at a rapid rate – what do you think “we” as the direct contributors to the culture can do to keep it quality yet accessible to a wider audience?

I think we definitely need to push to pump out more original material, I know that is one of my top priorities on the production front. Anytime I encounter a “moombah-hater” if you will, that’s always one of their first complaints “moombahton is nothing but edits and slowed down dutch house,” and I think in order to sway these people we have to not only pump out more originals, but originals that absolutely blow people’s minds. I feel in order to keep it accessible to a wider audience, I think we all as a whole, just need to stay grounded, and just support one another, I think united, us moombah-heads are a force to be reckoned with, and by supporting one another, we’ll just keep the momentum going and in a positive way.

4. What is your favorite non-moombahton piece of music at the moment?

There are several things I’m into right now, and it’s kind of all over the place too. I’m really digging trap music, I’ve been playing it out lately and people seem really receptive to it, I love the vibes, and everyone seems to enjoy it. I always love playing kuduro, I got really into it after seeing J-WOW (from Buraka Som Sistema) in L.A., it’s just so much fun, and energetic, and the crowd always goes nuts. I’m one of the biggest supporters of Blood Eagle, they’re this heavy bass trash/maximal duo here in Orlando, and they’re so talented and so under-rated, so I’m always listening to their mixes and originals. And lately I cannot get enough of hardstyle, I know it’s way out of left field, but I flip out anytime I hear it. To me it’s just so much fun, but I’ve had this really bad habit of dancing to hardstyle in heels so I usually regret it the next day ahaha

5. Where do you want moombahton to take you and where can you take it?

I’ve only been DJing and producing for about 9 months, and in that short while moombahton has taken me on this absolutely insane journey. If you would have told me 10 months ago that I would be playing at WMC this year with some of the top moombahton producers in the game (Nadastrom, Munchi, Sabo, Heartbreak, Sazon Booya, etc) I would have told you you were absolutely crazy ahaha, it STILL hasn’t hit me how much has happened in this short amount of time. It’s been overwhelming, but I’m immensely grateful for everything that has come my way, and for the amazing people I’ve met over these past months. It’s been an amazing experience and I hope I can continue to keep at it and continue to play what I love not only locally but in other cities as well.

As far as where I can take moombahton, I’m still working on developing my own signature sound, but I want to push moombahton and just DJing and production in general for women around the globe. When I saw all those women dancing at the Blow Your Head party, I just knew that moombahton is FOR women. I’m not happy with my sets or my music until I see women dancing to it; it just makes sense, that dembow beat gets those hips swaying, I try and fight it myself and it’s impossible ahaha But who better to contribute to the sound than a woman? That’s where I feel I can contribute to moombahton the most, I’m just grateful that I’m not alone in my thinking, Viciouz Viv, Sarah Young, DangerGirl, and there’s a few more out there, we’re all pretty much on the same page on being prominent contributors as women to moombahton and to the movement as a whole. I just hope people understand what I’m all about and appreciate not only what I stand for but also the music I put out there. So far people have been immensely encouraging and supportive of me along the way, all I can say is that I’m truly blessed!
