Why do we like this?
Dillon Francis keeps popping up in my SoundCloud dashboard with some remixes that he has labelled as "moombahton." I guess it's a new genre of electronic music that originated a couple years ago at some high school homecoming party in DC. I sure hope that's the real story, but I snatched that little fact over on Wikipedia, so who knows how credible it is.

Either way, this CSS remix is super catchy. It's got a nice, summery vibe that Francis accentuates with the reggaeton elements of "moombahton." Get it? Moombah + reggaeton = moombahton. Only thing left to figure out is what moombah is, so any knowledgeable readers feel free to comment.
