Dutch producers and aspiring poets, Mason are preparing to release their upcoming artist album ZOA. We are happy to present the full version of “Salamander”, the final tune on the album 2 weeks before its September 1st release. “Salamander” is carried by whimsical and playful synths that fits it right in with the atmosphere with the rest of the work and places it right at the end.

Electronic | No Limits – Purple Skies
Posted by Mel on July 30, 2014
No Limits are awesome. They have such a refreshing style and consistently put out quality stuff. Their latest is a dreamy piece of electronic music that becomes extremely catchy. Everything from the atmosphere, to the production, to the vocals are all top notch. These guys are going to be big soon.

Progressive House | Danzfolk – Colorado Cavalry
Posted by Middy on June 12, 2014
A little learning with house music? Danzfolk do it for the kids. With their MYTHOS trilogy in the books, the duo turn their attention to events that actually happened, notably happenings south of the border (Canadian border that is). With another big, cinematic tune, the duo bring us back to 1864 and the Sandcreek Massacre, using all sorts of sounds of the day like a church bell, horses and the like to create the proper historical atmosphere. I can’t tell if this is representative of 148 Native Americans being slaughtered, but I assume this sounds waaaay better then that.

Dubstep | T-Mass – The One Feat. Mona Moua
Posted by BP on May 27, 2014
Lately it has been such a struggle to find good dubstep. I’ve posted a few compilations featuring T-Mass, but this is his first solo debut on FNT. “The One Feat. Mona Moua” by the San Francisco based producer is a melodic dubstep track that I stumbled upon earlier today and kept coming back to. The vocals are beautiful and float smoothly over the growls and smooth bass drops. The atmosphere is powerful and dream-like. It’s out for free download so I thought I would pass it along to all the dubstep lovers out there.

Chill, Electronic | Kamandi & Polo – AASB EP
Posted by BP on April 12, 2014
This EP is just too cool to pass up. Kamandi and Polo have created a seven day gradual release program for the “AASB” EP. Followers get one track (on Bandcamp) and the corresponding video (on Youtube) released per day until it’s all out for sale! We are on day six now, but I couldn’t wait until day seven to post this because it caught my attention so quickly. Each track, named by a different symbol, has a unique atmosphere to it. The bass in these tracks is mind-blowing if you’ve got the right system. All the tracks are smooth, ambient, and mysterious. The vibes in this EP are hard to describe, but may be somewhere along the lines of dark, emotional, and chill. I’ve attached two tracks from Soundcloud. Click on the Bandcamp link to hear the rest and purchase the whole EP!

Albums | Above & Beyond Tugs At The Heartstrings With Acoustic Album
Posted by Middy on February 5, 2014
Above & Beyond first made the acoustic dream a reality back in June with 4 sold-out shows at London’s Porchester Hall and then again with two sold-out shows at the Los Angeles Greek Theater, where a Sonny Moore decided to sit in on bass for a tune. The trio described the impetus for creating the album “The acoustic project is a reconnection with the musicians that we were before we met”. As they have said, Above & Beyond are musicians who craft their electronic tracks using instruments and then create the parts from their instrumentation. Knowing that, such an endeavor not only seems possible, it seems likely that Tony, Paavo and Jono would come together to create this stunning piece of work. Watch / listen to the live performance at Porchester Hall and read on for the rest of the review. Grab the album on iTunes or their website, or enter our contest for a chance to win a copy plus other merch.
Trap | Johnny Rain – III (OZZIE & Hucci Remix)
Posted by BP on January 28, 2014
It’s always a treat to hear Ozzie and Hucci come together on a track. Trap veterans Ozzie and Hucci create a dark, mesmerizing atmosphere in their remix of Johnny Rain’s “III”. Low synths and trapped out beats guide the vocals to a place of mystery and melancholy. Sophisticated, yet simple, the bass lines are to die for. Lucky for us, this remix is free to download!
