Events, Videos | Swedish House Mafia 230911 Announcement
Posted by Middy on September 23, 2011
Swedish House Mafia just made their immensly anticipated 230911 announcement and it confirms much of we have expected. They will be playing Madison Square Garden on December 16th this year and go on a world tour that ends with a massive 9 hour event at Milton Keynes Bowl on July 14th 2012 with special guests to be announced that should be absolutely insane. The tickets go on sale September 30th and they will be capped at $35-$75 for MSG and 45 pounds for MKB so we don’t have prices like the Avicii New Years Eve show ticket prices yesterday. They will also be releasing a new live CD called “One Night Stand” in December with “Antidote” and their remix of “Every Teardrop is a Waterfall”. The CD will also include new solo work from each of the three members. A world tour like this is huge (there is mention of Australia and Brazil at the end of the video) as they are going to rock the biggest venues worldwide as well as releasing a new album with new material. Some more information from Billboard here.
Hip-Hop | Kenton Dunson – Firestarter ft. Ryan Kellie (Music Video)
Posted by Jess on September 22, 2011
Kenton Dunson just released his music video for “Firestarter”, one of my favorite songs off his Creative Destruction 2 album (available for free here) and I couldn’t imagine a better video for it. The video was directed by William J Bastian II who really did an incredible job with it. Better yet, in the next couple months there will be a short film titled Firestarter based on Kenton’s music. The music video contains scenes from the short film, so consider it a kind of preview of what’s to come!

Armin van Buuren and Ferry Corsten, two of the biggest names in Trance and in EDM, team up to give us this massive trance track called Brute. It is a bit different from their latest collaboration “Minack” on Armin’s latest artist album, Mirage. This song is going to be on Ferry Corsten’s upcoming artist album. Buy it on Beatport HERE.

Here are two awesome remixes off of Super8 & Tabs Empire remix album from Gareth Emery and Protoculture. Gareth Emery’s remix takes a little while to build but once it does, it is amazing and the female vocals are perfect. The Protoculture remix gives the song that little extra with its slow, soothing build and great drop with quality synth and bass. Buy the songs on Beatport HERE.

Hip-Hop | Bei Maejor ft. J. Cole (Music Video), e-dubble, & Jedi Mind Tricks

Fresh off the release of his most recent mixtape, maejorMaejor, Bei drops the official visuals for the first single off his debut album. We had previously seen an unofficial video for this which lacked an appearance from Jermaine. Is it just me or do Cole and Maejor almost look like brothers?

Flipping pages, here’s a track from the Baltimore MC that dropped just a few days ago. Personally I’m a big fan of e-dubble’s authentic style of creative hip-hop and sampling, but I don’t know how often he’s posted on FNT. If you’ve never heard e-dubble, it may take a minute to warm up to him because his style is so unique. He is the Santa Claus of free music and has a knack of finding some of the nicest samples. On this particular track, his producer cuts up “Herb Dub Collie Dub” by Jamaican ska band The Skatalites. He also switches up the hook from “Love Shack” and adds his own spin for part of his hook.

It’s been a minute since we heard from the underground army, Jedi Mind Tricks, but they are back on the scene despite the loss of producer, Stoupe (The Enemy Of Mankind). Vinny Paz and Jus Allah have kept the group afloat as they plan to release their newest album, Violence Begets Violence, on October 25th of this year.

Electro | David Guetta ft Usher – Without You (Lyrakill Remix)
Posted by GMONEY on September 17, 2011
It’s an understatement to say that Nothing But The Beat was one of the most anticipated electronic releases of the fall. Overall, I think that Guetta managed to deliver yet another smash album that deftly blends the art of electro with chart topping pop vocals. Even so, a few of the releases were begggging to be remixed. Without You is definitely one of those tracks, and Lyrakill managed to raise the bar on this already epic track. Check it out.
