Bobmo is known for producing bangin’ music with strong ghetto house influences and his recent remix for Mixpak is no exception. In the hope of getting inside his production mind, we asked him to give us a list of his favorite ghetto house tracks and he turned in his top five along with a short note about each track. Check these classics!
Jammin Gerald – Party Hype
Maybe the first ghetto house track I played and I still play it.
Robert Armani – Fire alarm
I like the armani’s snares !
Vybz Kartel is up next on the Mixpak roster, delivering the Dre Skull produced single “Yuh Love.” Stay tuned for the “Yuh Love” video which is being shot in Jamaica tomorrow. We’ll try to post some stills of Kartel on the set soon. Meanwhile enjoy a stream of the track.
Mixpak comrades Buraka Som Sistema are continuing their reign of destruction with the “Blood Diamond” mixtape. Featuring twenty two exclusive tracks consisting of exclusive Buraka re-edits, cameos from Afrikan Boy, Aloe Blacc, Blaya, Toy Selectah, and a mashup of Secousse and Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child of Mine”, this is a stellar compilation of sounds spanning from kudoro to hip hop to cumbia to dubstep to ghettotech and back into pop music again, all mixed seamlessly by DJ Lil John (aka J-Wow).
And as if my eyeballs weren’t bugging out of my head enough like some awestruck cartoon character already, it’s absolutely free. After you finish throwing yr hands in the air and cheering, you can grab the “Blood Diamond Mixtape” for the perfect soundtrack to everything you’re going to be doing this summer.
