Indie, Pop | KO KO – Float
Posted by W8 on March 28, 2012
My goodness, Float is the essence of refreshment. KO KO is a band based out of Los Angeles that is comprised of brothers Ryan and Taylor Lawhorn, they define their sound as having never experienced winter, accurately said given this cheery melody that practically inhales and exhales beautiful weather. They started this project in January 2012 and it’s clear, they are here to remain in the ears of many. The imagery of their sound is a cool and breezy daydream that encapsulates summer vibes all the way through. A breath of fresh air with an ocean in your backyard.

Posted by J_Salzer on March 22, 2012
Gorgeous girls and great music, can it get any better? I’ll answer that one for you, no, it can’t. Connor Zwetsch is native of my hometown, the beautiful Tampa Florida, studied at Florida State University, and is soon moving to Los Angeles to pursue her musical endeavors.. Connor has the ability to make tracks entirely her own, as seen in this video. She takes an originally electric song, and makes into into a beautiful guitar-vocal piece. She has an incredible voice, and the ability to control it, and make it look easy. Check her out on facebook and twitter
Indie, Pop, Videos | We Stole The Kids – All In My Head [Video]
Posted by Grubeats on March 22, 2012
This is me getting my feet wet in some new indie/hip-pop. We Stole The Kids is comprised of 6 musicians from New York, who are currently residing in New York and New England. This single, “All In My Head”, is the first off their debut FreEP album, entitled, Late Night Episode, which will likely be released in early April. I was intrigued by the unique sound they are bringing to the table, cohesively bonding indie rock with pop, hip-hop, and even electro. With a minuscule budget, the group was still able to put together an impressive video on the beach in Long Island during a freezing cold summer day/night.

Hip-Hop, Indie | Scotty James Ft. Yonas-Wanna Be Loved
Posted by ATexas on March 5, 2012
Combining Indie Rock, Hip Hop and Rap comes Scotty James and Yonas as they release to us a new jam. Smooth vocals and smooth spits combine to create a song thats more than just about cars, hoe biddies and being the next best thing. Yonas has definitely become someone to watch out of New York City, while Scotty James the Canadian new comer with a Collin Mcloughlin-esque audience is giving us a mellow chorus to feel good about.

Hip-Hop, Indie | Aer – Smoove Bruh [Video]
Posted by Grubeats on February 23, 2012
The tranquilizing tunes of Aer are always a refreshing change from what we’re typically used to hearing from todays up and comers. Maintaining the mellow sound they’ve had since the beginning, David and Carter are just two laid back dudes having a hell of a lot of fun making music fans can relate to. If you missed FNT’s recent interview with Aer, check that out HERE as well.
Alternative, Hip-Hop, Indie | WZRD (KiD CuDi & Dot Da Genius) ft. Desire – Teleport 2 Me, Jamie
Posted by W8 on January 31, 2012
Its been a pleasure watching musical genres of all kinds go from an abstract state into one colorful art form. There’s no greater evidence of this than Kid Cudi, known for dabbling in a variety of sounds and tempos, never could he simply be just a rapper. Teleport 2 Me, Jamie leans towards being an alternative indie record, and far from ever being acknowledged solely as hip hop. Actually, this track happens to sample from one of my favorite indie records, Under Your Spell by Desire. That’s a great thing, right when the game seems to have lost its oxygen, Kid Cudi’s musical diversity enters with a breath of fresh air.
Get it on iTunes.
