  • Bio

    .. ................ .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. ..Momu is a power tag-team duo made up of JD Moyer (aka Jondi, of internationally renowned production team Jondi & Spesh) and Mark Musselman, San Francisco's original Progressive Breaks DJ. ..Momu's sound to date; wicked breaks, future tech sounds, breathtaking melodies, sinister FX, and devastating arrangements that wreak havoc on the dancefloor and stereos everywhere. Both Mark and Jondi are residents at San Francisco's favorite mid-weekly, Qoöl, where you can hear them regularly testing out new and unusual breakbeat frequencies. .. ..Momu's very first single "This Is Momu" was licensed to Global Underground to feature on the Afterhours series. Global Underground has also licensed "The Dive" for Nick Warren's Global Underground: Reykjavik (GU24). Momu's "Sunsicle"” is featured on Hyper's "Fractured" compilation on Bedrock. The Donner Pass / Sunsicle 12" has received highest acclaim on Bedrock Breaks. Current and forthcoming releases on quality labels such as Kubist, 3Beat Breaks, Bedrock Breaks, Functional Breaks, Sabotage Systems, nu-Republic, Spundae Records, and Loöq Records are bursting out of the pipeline with big support from the world's top DJ's including John Digweed, Sasha, Jerry Bonham, James Zabiela, DJ Hyper, Adam Freeland, Ashley Casselle, Nick Warren, Lee Burridge, Cass, Jonathan Lisle, Blackwatch, Steve Gerrard, Hernan Cattaneo, DJ19, Pako & Frederik, and Hybrid... ..Jondi and Mark have not been resting their laurels on the remix front either. John Digweed dropped Momu's remix of Jamie Stevens "The Night Before" (Loöq Records) on his Kiss FM show. The Momu remix of Marino Berardi's "Clear the Skies" (19Box) is popping ears in Japan and worldwide. Momu remixes of Cass's "Mind Rewind" (Sabotage), Sunscape's "Purled" (Kubist) and Justin O'Brien and Jonanthan's "Levitate" (Stellar) are still in circulation. Also look for remixes on 3 Beat Breaks (Blake Jarrell and Starkid's "Apricot"), Proton Music (Digital Witchcraft's "Brindavan"), Parabolic (Jacob Todd and Jordan Nafie's "Malta"), and ()RND "Burn" on Looq... "Momu are in top form" - John Digweed .. "Living Legends" - Jonathan Lisle .. "Musically great and brilliant production. Top music." - Hernan Cattaneo .. "Remarkable. Impeccable. Kinky." - Jamie Stevens/Infusion .. "Gorgeous ... and their music is good too" - Jerry Bonham .. "There is always room in my sets for Momu's atmospheric breaks" - Ashley Casselle/Ashtrax .. "Quality tripped out deepness" - Adam Freeland .. ..In the visual arena, the music video of Momu's "The Dive" (directed by Kia Simon) was shown on MTV and Apple’s Quicktime site, having already gained recognition in many top-shelf film festivals including San Francisco International, LA International Short, South by Southwest, Mill Valley, and Seattle's Bumbershoot... ..MOMU SELECTED DISCOGRAPHY..
