DV Beats is the creative genius producer behind enthralling tracks such as “Alza la Mano”, “Baile House”, “Beat That”, “Tambora – Original Mix” among other splendid tracks. He is not limited to any one type of genre and splits the lines of dancehall, reggaeton, Latin among other Caribbean influences. He currently resides in Florida but was born to a Puerto Rican father and Panamanian mother and he grew up listening to an extensive variety within the Caribbean/Latino realm of music, from salsa to reggae to dancehall to merengue and reggaeton. These sounds still influence his type of productions and even in his latest track “The 1” his first-ever collaboration as DV Beats which he featured ABeck is dancehall-inspired and an exceptionally produced track that will take listeners back to the dance floor in joyous fashion.
“The 1” is a funky mix of dancehall, reggaeton, Latin, and dance and the perfect fit for dancehall radio. The melody of this track sets the tone for this tune born in the Caribbean; it’s easy to see how the melodies of the island have inspired the reggaeton, dembow feel of the piece. This dancehall track is fun, bright, melodic, and uplifting with a great Latino and dance rhythm featuring the pulsating and infectious sounds of the snares, the sensational percussive elements, the sub-bass, the resounding 808’s, the hit samples, shakers, the guitar loops, kicks and snares, the sweeps and the extra rhythmic edge color and depth added by the tambourine loop and the intriguing sweeps.
Accompanying these extravagant melodies is his vocal drops that have been heightened with the reverb effect and the cleverly integrated delay. This is a proper cultural sound and DV Beats and ABeck really did some magic on it. The catchy lyrics veering on some melancholic gear gets consumed by the bright and bubbly rhythmicity.
