This is just a little reminder that the wicked Tschukudu EP is out, now! From today you can finally get the orginal Version of the great Kuduro/Baile Funk Hybrid by Lee Bass, Gata Misteriosa and B’Crazy, plus a radio edit and 3 additional Remixes.
Flore transformed Tschukudu into a Tropical Bass banger, while Hanuman Tribe and Access Denied flavoured it with Electrobreaks.
The Remixes from the Freebie EP are not included, in case you haven’t got them yet, download them from here! And make sure you’ll give this Promo Mix a listen, it includes a preview of an forthcoming Gato Preto tune, you need to hear.
This is the first very own Release of the french-german DJ and producer Duo Hat+Hoodie on Berlin based label Be Bonkerz, run by Leg-No and Chris De Luca. “Gimme Some” is a 3 track instrumental EP which fuses british music styles like UK Funky and Garage with south african Kwaito and angolan Kuduro. Make sure you’ll give this nice blend of music a listen and buy your copy, if you like it, it’s out now in every good download store!
The United States based producer Zucco turned two US HipHop tracks by Big Sean, Nicki Minaj, SupaMan and Johnny Astro into great energetic Kuduro Club anthems between 140 and 150BPM! Prelisten them below and download the EP from mediafire.
Gato Preto is a super awesome, new Tropical Bass project from the Germany based producer and DJ Lee Bass and female vocalist Gata Misteriosa. Their tunes are the perfect blend between African music and urban electronic styles as Moombathon, Bmore, Bailefunk or Dubstep.
Since their debut EP will be released soon on Riot Riot Records (January 20th), we’d like to prepare you for the new sound outta Germany with giving you their Freebie EP, 5 days earlier than every other blog will get it!!! It contains 4 exclusive Remixes of the name-giving track Tschukudu, orginally a combination with Rapper B’Crazy. There are 2 House versions by Tuskle, Ertu and Pushkin, a Dub Remix by Grizu and a Moombahton Edit from the producer, himself, which won’t be featured on the official EP.
We are very proud to be the first ones who got this, Gato Preto is definitely an act to look out for in 2012. This is a must have for all our readers! Download via bandcamp:
The new year starts with a bang as we have a guest in the studio: Mataklap of the infamous Bomb Diggy Crew. This spontaneous session back2back style is the perfect medicine for lethargic January.

Tropicalbass Editor Jelka dropped our review for 2011.. Make sure you read all of those amazing selected releases!!
Although I would like to make a more detailed description why I chose each track.
Best Song (Over all)
Guapo Feo- Oro en Polvo
I chose this song because it evokes me how something sexy can be dark and heavy at the same time.
This song for me is the beginning of moombasoul and moombahcore as we know it.. this song is January 2011!! and it made it to the top all year long!! Guapo Feo – Oro En Polvo by barneyiller Best Album (Over all) Indidginus- Sofa Surfer
This album is simply a great example of how post dancehall should be done!! Amazing production!!! Indidginus – Mercy Me (feat EJ Von Lyrik, Steve Newman and Fletcher) 2 Min Edit by indidginus
Best Dancehall song Damian Marley- Set Up
What else to say to the only son who has made a name with his own style!! He is Dancehall Boss!! Damian “JR GONG” Marley – Set Up Shop by Damian Marley Best Dancehall Album
Symbiz - Thursday’s tunes/who cares?
Two brothers made worth to wait Thursday JUST to download one of those 100 spots..
Symbiz is (in my opinion) BEST post dancehall guys around!! EV`RYWHERE (feat Teacha Dee) by SYMBIZ
Best dubstep song
This was the dubstep mainstream year.. and even though some say it is boring.. I personally find it more alive than ever..in fact I think we will see more and more and no matter how polarized it is..
Great dubstep will prevail!!
My best Dubstep song was Noisia- Tommy’s theme Noisia – Tommy’s Theme by NOISIA Best Dubstep Album Bassnectar- divergent-spectrum-
Indeed Bassnectar nails it.. BIG TIME!! forget about Flux Pavillion, Skrillex, Skream… the original basshead dropped one of the sickest bass albums of 2011!! Divergent Spectrum [ALBUM PREVIEW] by Bassnectar
Best Latin Album
Captain Planet- Dame agua from his Ningane EP…
Todo el Sabor gathered in just one song.. 70′s salsa meets 90′s electronic with 2011 basslines!! Dame Agua by DJ Captain Planet Best Latin Song
Los Piranas- Hueles a espiritu Joven
Last year Frente Cumbiero made it to my top for Best Cumbia album.. This year their side project made it for best latin song..
This song is more punk than most punk out there!! 09 Hueles a espíritu jóven by lospirannas
Clearly this was Moombahton’s break thru!
Coming from great songs to crappy edits.. to reinvent itself by the hand of hundreds talented producers who were VERY interested in making original and one of my favorite tunes was.. made in Peru.. from a Checz Rep guy! Best Moombahton song
3ball!! Erick Rincon, Sheeqo Beat, Dj otto MADE IT HUGE!!!!!!!!!! Toy selectah’s mentoring proved to be flawless, as he did with reggeaton when he started machete records, he is making 3ball the next big thing in Mx and US. Best 3Ball song
3BALL MTY – Intentalo 3Ball MTY – Intentalo by estacionesmusicales
Although as usual.. once someone makes it big.. the genre gets polarized versus underground who keep it real and the sell off guys…and one of the dopest guys who is shifting 3ball in a diferent direction and we will kep an eye on is Mr. Kanti W.
Although we are going to stick to the “original” 3ball sound:
Aruba’s finest producer also dropped one of the Finest Bass albums in 2011 Best Bass Album
Fellow- Run de Dance Fellow – Run De Dance EP by FELLOW

Buraka som sistema Hangover (BABABA) by burakasomsistema
A whole Trend that I personally thing deserves its own Category Best moombahcore song Dirty Talk-P.O.T. (FS & Reid Speed Remix) by Dirty Talk
