Trance | Above & Beyond feat. Alex Vargas – Blue Sky Action
Posted by Middy on July 21, 2014
The sky is blue and you should too. Ok that made no sense, but it doesn’t matter. Above & Beyond are thankfully much better at just about everything music related than me, including songwriting, and “Blue Sky Action” is their latest tune that is pitch perfect for the summer months. It is the first single from their upcoming album, out early next year so get your mind and bodies ready for that.
Progressive House | Coldplay – A Sky Full Of Stars (Moiez Bootleg)
Posted by Middy on July 20, 2014
The Avicii / Coldplay combo has been absolutely killer, acting as a crossover from the radio to the festival stage to TV / commercial uses. Even the slightly lackluster Hardwell remix shot up to the top of the Beatport charts*. In steps Moiez to deliver a dynamite melodic remix that adds some big reverbed synths, while still leaning on the handiwork of king veech and Coldplay. Grab this now before the labels buy up soundcloud and take down remixes like this.

Progressive House | Pierce Fulton – Runaway (Ansolo Remix)
Posted by Middy on July 15, 2014
This one makes me smile a little bit as someone who has been doing this long enough to see guys develop from nobodies into viable artists. Ansolo hits me up with this and his upcoming release on Size Records (not shabby at all) with the preface that I gave him some advice long ago and critiqued a few of his songs that he knows now were not that great. I am in no way saying I made his career and any blogger who says they made someone’s career has a serious god complex that needs to be checked, but it is great to hear an artist be thankful for something that isn’t just a generic post and can actually take some criticism, which is harder and harder to find nowadays from acts and their team.
Back to the tune, this one blew up and quickly, rising him to the top of the somewhat gimmicky Billboard trend charts, a feat since he was up against your typical obsessive teenybopper fan bases. Ansolo adds a little more bounce and groove to the tune, while still keeping much of the original feel of the tune. As I mentioned before, Ansolo has a tune out with his mentor Tom Staar on Size Records on Monday. Preview that huge tune below.
Contests, Featured | Win A Pair Of Paul van Dyk’s Special Edition Toms
Posted by Middy on July 15, 2014
DJs are the new global music superstars, and this has led to all sorts of endorsement deals and brand partnerships. While high profile ones have included Tiesto & 7UP, Tiesto & Guess (he is really the king of this) and Avicii & Ralph Lauren to name a few, trance legend Paul van Dyk has not precluded himself form getting a piece of this pie. He recently announced a partnership with clothing brand Toms, where he, like many sports stars will have his own limited edition sneaker AND sunglasses line that is available right now.
We are happy to be giving away one pair of the TOMS Pasea Mids for one lucky winner to upgrade their shoe game. These kicks are fire and I am jealous of whoever wins this contest. Peep them on PVD below and enter the punchtab widget for your chance to win. If you want the sunglasses or the slip-ons, go and grab them here.
Deep House, Exclusive | FNT Premiere: Ashea – Whatcha Thinkin’ (Deepmilo Remix)
Posted by Middy on July 14, 2014
The first thing that will stick out to you in this tune are the vocals. Insanely catchy, Ashea has developed a poppy sound that does not sound manufactured like many of her female peers. Working with that, London based producer, Deepmilo strips the tune back of much of its pop sensibilities for a deeper, groovier tune fit for the summer. We have the premiere right here for ya, so stream this one until it is released.
Exclusive, Videos | FNT Premiere: BOTH – Straight Outta Line (Video)
Posted by Middy on July 14, 2014
Hailing from Belgium & France, producer duo, BOTH recently released their new summer tipped single “Straight Outta Line”. Cheery and poppy, this tune is one of those diamond in the rough tunes for you to play out combining the synth heavy climaxes and addictive vocals. We are proud to premiere the video for the tune, which follows three 20-somethings as they journey across the Western US, living the free life.
Once you are done with the video, peep the P.A.F.F.’s Deep Remix, which does not lie and is quite deep. Grab the tune on iTunes here.
