1984 was the peak year for Electro. Everybody wanted to cash in on the craze. That included the notorious bottom-feeding K-Tel Records when they released a compilation entitled “Electric Breakdance”. However, that doesn’t discredit the inclusion of timeless classics such as “Jam On It” by Newcleus and “Electric Kingdom” by Twilight 22. This would inspire Jimmy Mesa to submerge himself in B-Boy culture at the incredible young age of 8, spending his time honing his craft of B-Boy dancing, leading him to be central to danceflloors of clubs in South Florida during the rise of Miami Bass. This earned Jimmy the name Floorkilla. Come 1994, Floorkilla expanded into the scene of South Florida’s scene of Breaks and Nu-Electro at the legendary club, “The Edge”. As part of the D.O.A. crew, he danced alongside the infamous “Fever Crew Dancers”, soaking up the sounds and rhythms. As a result, Floorkilla emerged as one of the top-notch new school producers of Electro Bass steeped in the legacy of Miami Bass. As the Miami Bass History movement outgrew its initial goal as an archival project into a platform to bridge and promote both old school icons and new school innovators, Floorkilla found himself at the center, being instrumental in the bridging process. From designing the ubiquitous logo for MBH to being monumental as part of the unit’s A&R staff, Floorkilla has effectively risen from b-boy to music producer to genre figurehead, while never sacrificing the quality of any element.
