You can try this as a start, it's as basic as it gets. :)

You can also try this for more of a reggae dancehall rhythm.

You can experiment with any bpm really, but Moombahton tends to sit around 104-108, and reggae dancehall can be as low as 70 to as high as 160(170), especially if you're cross breeding genres.
