Rajiv Münch (born 29 July 1989), better known by his stage name Munchi, is a Dutch producer and DJ of Dominican descent, born and raised in Rotterdam, Netherlands.[2] He is credited to have made "the first truly original work" for moombahton, taking "the sound to the next level"[3] and being the originator of moombahcore.[4] Even though Munchi is credited mainly for moombahton, it was his versatility and unique production style that brought him into public attention.[5][6] Notably producing a wide selection of genres and incorporating these elements in his music.[7][8] This is best represented in the Murda Sound debut on T&A Records, consisting of a wide variety of genres doing Munchi's versatility justice.[9] In December 2010 Munchi was featured with 3 tracks on M.I.A.'s Vicki Leekx mixtape,[10] and in July 2012 on Azealia Banks' Fantasea mixtape, with the track "Esta Noche."
