The more I listen to this track, the more I love it, and I’m not even that much a fan of the original version, but Buster Moe did his thing with nothing but a guitar, and a microphone, covering ASAP Rocky’s “L$D.” When I listen to people sing, it’s not the notes they hit that I pay attention to, but the rawness of their voice, and the emotions they’re emitting. Anyone can hit a note, but can they make you feel a note? Buster does his thing, def going to keep an eye out on this dude! This is a must listen!

Cover | Exclusive FNT Premiere: Diplo – Revolution (Chelsea Cutler Cover)

Posted by on June 8, 2015

18 year old, recent high school graduate, Chelsea Cutler is anything but ordinary. Chelsea is a multifaceted solo act with a soothing voice, beautiful instrumentals, and an incredible knack for production. Fresh New Tracks is proud to present the exclusive premier of her latest cover- Diplo’s Revolution.

This brand new track is not just some Soundcloud cover by a teenage girl with a pleasant voice. Chelsea manages to slow down the track quite a few notches with her vocals while maintaining the energy associated with the lyrics and original scoring. Chelsea’s guitar skills- and strangely enough, her taste taste in music- are equally impressive as her vocals. This can be seen as the innovative cover subtly pays tribute to both the Unlike Pluto Remix and the Absence remix of Diplo’s generation through crafty chord work. Overall, this track is a winner and we urge you to not only take advantage of the free download but also check out the rest of Chelsea Cutler’s Music on Soundcloud.

Chelsea and Fresh New Tracks encourage you to tweet the track to Diplo as a token of support- “I’d freak out if he saw it!” Enjoy.

Cover, Pop | Leah Haxhi Drops Video for LunchMoney Lewis Bills Cover with Live Violin

Posted by on May 5, 2015

LH-8
Leah Haxhi, an up-and-coming singer songwriter out of NYC, dropped a video today to go along with her LunchMoney Lewis “Bills” Cover that was posted here on FNT a few weeks ago. She kept the piano generally the same as the original song to stay with the bright, gospel feel of the tune, but replaced the trumpet solo in the original with a live violin. The video is a fun, amateur, home grown project featuring her younger cousin as her “mini-me” to juxtapose the freedom of childhood with the responsibility of being an adult and having “bills” to pay. This shows a quirky, childlike side to Leah that is different from her usual serious, sultry tone. She is brewing up a lot of original music so be sure to follow her social media at LahLahLandMusic on Twitter, IG, and Facebook to get the latest on releases.

Chill, Cover, Pop | Ricky Smith – Who’s Gonna Save My Soul? (Gnarls Barkley Cover)

Posted by on April 29, 2015

It takes quite a bit for a cover to catch my attention. Ricky Smith has quite a bit. His take on Gnarls Barkley is risky, unique, and intriguing. The production is kept simple, church organs serve their purpose while keeping the focus on Smith. Even the video does not draw away from the central point of this work: Ricky Smith has a powerful voice and is demanding your attention.

While little is known yet about the young artist, this will certainly not be the last you’re hearing from him.
