Glitch | Mord Fustang – Champloo
Posted by Spice on September 25, 2012
Calling all fans of KOAN Sound and Pretty Lights: this is a must listen. Estonian producer extraordinaire Mord Fustang test drives a new sound in his latest release, “Champloo,” which delivers the funked-out vibe that comes from dropping the tempo to 100 BPM but doesn’t dial down the synthwork. Mord is known for his lush, dazzling soundscapes, and they’re on full display here — and work surprisingly well with that groovy glitch-hop sound. This track definitely has a clear KOAN Sound vibe, but I think that Mord’s distinctive space-disco touch sets it apart from the rest. Overall? Awesome and a must download.
Dubstep, Glitch | Manic Focus – We Won’t Land
Posted by Mach on September 20, 2012
Manic Focus has truly grown over the Summer. His styling was always resembling that of Pretty Lights, but now he has really seemed to have found his place within the Glitch-Hop/Dubstep blend. This new original of Manic Focus’ is straight class, one could listen to this for hours in a day and it would never get old.
Electronic, Glitch, Preview | Haywyre – Draw The Line EP (Preview)
Posted by Mach on August 6, 2012
Haywyre is on FIRE! After just releasing his third successful EP of 2012, he already has a forth EP not set for release. The previews available for the upcoming EP, “Draw The Line,” sound incredible, making me even more impatient for its August 28th release. The title track absolutely blew my mind, Haywyre’s composition has always been incredible, but this track feels like he really pushed the limits of the line that is being drawn out. There is no stopping this guy, his last release “Infinite” stormed up the charts on Beatport. It feels like only a matter of time before Haywyre’s popularity explodes.

Albums, Dubstep, Electronic, Glitch, Review | Haywyre – Infinite
Posted by Mach on June 25, 2012
After our featured post of Haywyre a few months back, the man was more than grateful and in the opinions of FNT, more than deserving. Today is the release of Haywyre’s 6th musical compilation, the album titled ‘Infinite.’ I cannot stop listening to this new album, Haywyre’s history of piano composition is reflected immensely all over the course of his work. Last minute he teamed up with Jay Fresh to do a vocal mix of his highly anticipated instrumental, ‘Raw Crunch.’ The track was already wanted by all, but now with that extra step into Hip-Hop it is simply irresistible.
“The idea behind the album name “Infinite” came from our tendency to label existences with specific beginnings and ends. The circle represents the possibility of a never-ending existence, as opposed to one with a beginning and an end.”
– Haywyre
Infinite is comprised of many different styles, more prominently Dubstep, but also consisting of Glitch-Hop and little Electro/Lounge styling. His first track ‘Prototype’ kicks off with some smooth Glitch-Hop, as funny as it is to say. The track then breaks into his mastery of the Piano leading only into an incredible Glitch drop. Exclusive to Beatport is his second track, and by far one of the more incredible of the album, ‘LD004.’ This Orchestral Dubstep track really puts the top 10 of Dubstep to shame. The bass is massive, but not messy sounding like a lot of Dubstep theses days. Assembled flawlessly, the repeat button is the only next logical move. By far my favorite track of the entire Album, ‘Raw Crunch’ shows an entire new side tot he potential Glitch-Hop holds. The intro carries you seamlessly into a Razor drop (Dubstep/Electro), and from there you are completely blown away by the composure that Haywyre created for this massive track. ‘Raw Crunch’ finishes off strong in true Glitch-hop fashion, continually blowing your mind until the very end.
His second Exclusive to Beatport, ‘Contrast,’ is another big Glitch-Hop tune. Embodying the idea of contrast, this track floats right into more of that Razor style. I love the name of ‘Stone Shower,’ and once you listen you will understand why. The track has this vibe of rain falling, but breaking from the first simple Glitch drop you quickly are introduced to the bass stones that now wash away all else. The last orignal of the album is yet another favorite of mine from the album. ‘Mezmerize’ does just that to you, I cannot get enough of that Electric Guitar. Listening to the track you wonder where all the bass went. Patience is a virtue, and well worth the wait as the track progresses into an incredible drop. As a bonus, is a remix of ‘LD004’ from The Digital Connection, transforming the track into a more intense Glitch/Dubstep version of the original. This album has to be one of the best releases I have heard in 2012. Besides the two exclusives to Beatport, ‘Infinite’ is FREE! Don’t be shy to show Haywyre some love and name a higher price on Bandcamp than $0.00. He is more than deserving of the support. I hope everyone else enjoys this album just as much as I have, it truly is a masterpiece.
Glitch | Flo-Rida- Let It Roll (Video)
Posted by A on June 21, 2012
“Flo-Rida is the Nickleback of hip-hop” -Spice
Is there a more hated individual in the hip-hop world than Flo-Rida? I mean talk about sell outs of all sell outs. Sure, he’s making Maybach money, but I doubt he’s even being invited to the BET awards anymore. Even if he was, I’m not sure he would even show up. I’m sure he has weed carriers homies from his previous hood that still run in his circle. Do you think they’re really feeling these dance songs? I’m sure they just go along with it because they’re on the payroll. The only reason I’m posting this video is because Keith Apicary. Are we really supposed to believe that Flo-Rida watches Keith Apicary videos all day? The calculated moves by Flo-Rida’s management in the attempt to go viral are painfully obvious.
This is exactly what’s wrong with the world.

Dubstep, Electro, Glitch, Hip-Hop | Featured Artist: Savant
Posted by Mach on May 19, 2012
Savant has been a roll lately, and he has been releasing even more since his mishap with his hard drive. I figured since he has an album, ‘Overworld,’ dropping June 6th, it was time for the world to understand his mastery. Savant (Aleksander Vinter) is a Norwegian artist in Dubstep and Complextro, but as we have seen his talents are not limited to the two genres. His 2009 album ‘Outbreak’ released under the alias, Vinter, and was nominated for a Norwegian Grammy. Since then he has release two more top notch albums ‘Nimur’ and his most recent ‘Vario.’ As I stated before, Savant’s hard drive had crashed while working on his new album ‘Overworld.’ Despite the crash, Savant still managed to save most of the album, staying on track for its June 6th release. Savant is one of the better producers that I have listened to, and undeniably one of my top favorites. I have an incredibly great feeling about his upcoming album, it will definitely make a huge impact on the electronic music community. Below are links to his albums ‘Nimur’ and ‘Vario,’ including a teaser for his upcoming album and a few of his most recent free releases.
