Blurred Lines (Moombahton Madness)...
Oh yeaaaaaaaah...
Lol. This one.
I'd been DJing in Bali for a while, and Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" was a favorite at the majority of weddings I was playing at the time.
Well, one thing led to another...
I'd discovered moombahton a couple years earlier, and this was just a match made in heaven...

There was this one moment with this track...
I had already played it out a couple times at weddings and it had went off well. However, I lined up a one-off gig in Singapore during a visa run at Tanjong Beach Club on their legendary Sunday afternoons - one of the best gigs I've ever played - and dropped it at the perfect time...
Fuuuuck. I wish I could capture the moment for replay.
Yeah, sure, there were some girls in bikinis dancing on tables that was like just the perfect visual to accompany the soundtrack... yet, the whole vibe was just pumping.
DJing is a fine art. And while they're far and few between, there come moments that are just fucking perfect.
This track, dropped in that venue, and that precise time... oh man.
As much as I can get stoked relistening to this track now, there's no comparison to that moment in time on that system, in that space, bumping to 1500 people on the beach.
The sheer raw dopeness.
Sigh.
note: these three pics are from the second time I played at Tanjong Beach Club
Sadly, moombahton didn't really get too far as a genre.
I suppose Diplo and Dillion Francis did take elements of it to a more commercialized level. Though, it was a more underground movement that - I, personally, at least felt - never did blossom to the extent of what it could have, given how awesome it was.
Some party-rocking shit, those moombahton beats.
Yet, there weren't many producers that had the skill to really execute it masterfully.
Slight digression...
Anyways, I can't claim to have put in immense amounts of effort into the remix, comparable to others I've done that are essentially completely my own productions with only the original vocal stems. This one is merely the original track with some moombahton drum loops laid over.
Nonetheless, it's still dope.
And, I hope and intend that your listening to it may bring some of that sunshine vibe from that legendary Sunday at the beach in Singapore into your psyche, and perhaps some movement into your booty, as that moombahton beat pulses over this classic Pharrell joint...
Enjoy!

nice party
Wow, what a post! I enjoyed reading it as I enjoyed listening to the music. Thanks! Enjoy your life! Rolf
Prettiest thing about that moment is that you reminisce every time you hear the sound. Memories are priceless especially beautiful ones that we can relive our thoughts.
Love moombathon, not heard any in a while. might get right back into it now!

Never heard of this genre !! It sounds pumpy. It sounds nice. A party song completely!
Good work.
One of the greatest hits of robin thicke, the girls love it and the men too. So many bikini and beautiful models
Very good.
Good post..Nice to know you@rok-sivante
Damn this must have smashed the pool. Way more pump than the original, people must have been stoked on you bringing some creativity and your own remixes to the set. Genuinely enjoy scoping your exploits in the exotic lands...funny how the track and dope panorama of the pool contributes to feeling like you were there.
😎🙏
thank you, your post
Robin Thicke is dope!
I am Listening to the song many times.
what a bored edit -_-
😂
is that you on the pic..??
White guy in the top two of the middle 3, yeah
😉👍
A video of the crowd from the first time you played this would have definitely added to the experience of this remix.
Although, it would be pretty difficult to beat the original music video. As a heterosexual woman, even I love watching the beautiful models in the video haha
Woow its amazing :)
