Progressive House | Zero9 – Fire It Up
Posted by GMONEY on May 16, 2012
Featured on Peak Hour Music (the label which just put out Porter Robinson’s “I’m On Fire”), Zero9 kills his latest EP “Fire It Up” with two massive Progressive House anthems. The first, named after the EP, features multiple synth build ups, then descends into a DOPE House drop at 1:48. The second, “Are U Ready?”, is also great, with a dope Complextro (a new sub-genre of EDM which utilizes elements of Electro House, Progressive House and Dubstep) beat, and has multiple incredible drops (check the first 50 seconds in). Grab the release on BEATPORT.
Cover, Featured | Beastie Boys – Fight For Your Right (Easy Does It MCA Tribute)
Posted by GMONEY on May 14, 2012
The recent passing of Adam Yauch aka MCA of the Beastie Boys is a great loss for the music industry. MCA was a musical innovator who transcended the East Coast/West Coast rivalry with an infectious brand of sabotage that will never be matched. Easy Does It holds a special place for the Beastie Boys in their hearts, and credits them as a huge inspiration for their work. As such, they have put together this tribute to MCA, and according to Easy Does It:
“Fight For Your Right” by the Beastie Boys “was the first cover song we ever learned as a band, wayyy back in the day. So it was only right that we paid proper homage & respect. These guys shaped our lives, straight up…we’re just some kids that wanna rap to guitars too. In true Beastie Boys spirit, we dressed up as characters from their iconic music videos and had a bunch of fun on camera. If his legacy can be perpetuated just .00001 % more – by people watching our video, then we did our job.
I’d say Easy Does It definitely did their job, check the video and see for yourself.

Progressive House | Wynter Gordon – Still Getting Younger (Remixes)
Posted by GMONEY on May 14, 2012
Wynter Gordon has been on fire recently, absolutely smashing the lyrics to Tommy Trash and Steve Aoki’s “Ladi Dadi” and Laidback Luke’s recent hit “Speak Up”. This release, Still Getting Younger, features some great remixes from Steve Angello sponsored Third Party, eSquire (who has been wrecking the Progressive House scene), and Belocca. The Third Party remix brings out their unique sound (massive building synth work and perfect festival music). My personal favorite is the eSquire remix, who utilizes the perfect mix of melodies to create that house beat which gives you goosebumps. The Belocca remix is a great house take on the original. Grab the full release on BEATPORT. The Beatport version also features Dub remixes from Third Party and Belocca.
Hip-Hop | Easy Does It – Pocket Full Of Change
Posted by GMONEY on April 30, 2012
As you wind down your weekend tonight, take a moment to check out the latest original release from Easy Does It. Time and time again, Easy Does It delivers smooth, laid back jams that you can’t help but keep on repeat (dont believe me? Check out Feelin Like Ooh). In Pocket Full Of Change, Easy Does It couples deep lyricism with a light rock instrumental. This unique style put me at a loss for how to categorize this track, is it Hip-Hop? kinda. Is it rock? A little. Or, maybe its a new genre. Maybe its “Easy Does It”…

Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | Jadakiss – Consignment
Posted by GMONEY on April 27, 2012
Jadakiss returns for a hard-hitting mixtape with beats reminiscent of his early days with Bad Boy. The features on this mixtape are OBSCENE, with all of The LOX (Jadakiss’s group) including Sheek Louch and Styles P, along with Wale, Swizz Beatz, Waka Flocka, Meek Mill, Fabolous, Lloyd Banks, Young Jeezy, Yo Gotti, French Montana, I could keep going…the producers are just as impressive with Jahlil Beats, Young Joc and AraabMuzik being just a few. Right from the start, Jahlil Beats murders the beat on “Paper Tags”, and Wale’s verse is nasty. “Respect It”, the track with Fabolous and Lloyd Banks, is straight up dirty, Marly kills the beat. Listen to the mixtape below; D-BLOCK.

Cam Meekins latest release “Blazed and Confused 2” is a 10 track mixtape, previewing the dankness that is about to be his upcoming free album being released on May 21st.

DJ-Set | DJ JurisDoc – FNT Mix 4/25/2012
Posted by GMONEY on April 25, 2012
One of my goals this week is to bring back FNT’s DJ mixes! What’s better than letting someone else find, mix, and master all of the biggest jams surfing the blogwaves and combine them into one hour of sonic bliss? Nothing, thats what. So after dropping TeeTs, Crushing Life Volume I on Monday, I think its about time to lay another huge mix on the FNT Nation. So kickback and let our very own DJ JurisDoc, bump those speakers, earbuds, headphones, or whatever else you kids are bumping with these days (better not be laptop speakers, cause only a fool would dare bump EDM on those).
