Momu (JD Moyer aka Jondi, of internationally renowned production duo Jondi & Spesh, and Mark Musselman, one of San Francisco's most acclaimed breakbeat DJs) started innocently enough, but soon after their tracks began hitting clubs and record stores, the buzz was afoot. Momu's raw yet emotive breakbeat sound had been let out, and there was no going back. Word of mouth, both online and off, was
swift to spread and it wasn't long before their reputation was quickly growing. Not bad for a pair of DJ/producers who were just in it to bring their collective songwriting ideas into the world of breaks.

The sound represented on Momu's self title album is a culmination of what they do best - combining modern breakbeat with melodic elements found in other genres such as trance, progressive and even indie rock. The result is music that sounds larger and more exuberant than it’s purely dance focused breakbeat forefather. It becomes music that works just as well off the dancefloor as on.

Momu's unique sound was recognized immediately, and their very first single 'This Is Momu' is featured on the album, in addition to such tracks as 'The Dive', 'Sunsicle', and recent single 'One', a track co-written with the members of Chicago's Grayarea. In addition to new tracks as such as 'See It Thru' and 'Hydergine' it's a body of work that chronicles the Momu sound from it's origins right up to the present day.

The impact Momu have had upon the West Coast underground scene has spread across the world over the past few years, and be it any of the aforementioned singles, or remixes for labels that vary from 3Beat Breaks through to Sabotage Systems, aim to follow the standard that has been set with this inaugural artist album. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Momu..
