Deep House | Shake Sofa & Inner Rebels – All Night Long (CASSIMM Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 30, 2014
Although legendary FreshNewTracks.com overlord and former blogger “GMONEY” is long retired, he’s still a track hound, scouring the internet for the best sounds. He routinely surprises me, finding obscure tunes that I could have never found myself. Earlier today, he got me familiar with CASSIMM’s “Shake Sofa & Inner Rebels – All Night Long” remix, which is one of a kind. Released a few months ago, this is a remix that didn’t receive the love it should have gotten. Give this remix a second chance. It’s catchy.

Chill | Pomo – Start Again Ft. Andrea Cormier
Posted by BIGLIFE on June 17, 2014
Supported by the likes of Disclosure (who are the darlings of the EDM world right now) Pomo’s “Start Again” featuring Andrea Cormier is serious summer tune-age. Released on LA based Huh What & Where Recordings, “Start Again” has a good chance of gaining serious traction. Summer vibes!
Hip-Hop | Sammy Adams – You & Me
Posted by BIGLIFE on May 6, 2014
“Dues yeah I’m paid up / dudes need to wake up.”
Returning to what made him great, Sammy goes in over Disclosure’s mega “You & Me” smash that’s reminiscent of his earliest work. Rapping, “Wizzy back, had a chance I’m yelling give me that, I can feel the summer approaching while you still skinny fat” Sammy floats effortlessly over the track with hungry bars and lyrical wit. Some might stipulate that Sammy Adams is officially back. I’d argue he never left. Sammy Adams. You & Me. Fire flames. Hat tip to the incomparable Val Pensa at RCA.
Chill, Deep House | Benjamin Francis Leftwich – 1904 (Manila Killa Remix)
Posted by Mel on April 15, 2014
The unique brand of music that Kygo and Thomas Jack have made popular is what Manila Killa has tried to replicate in his latest remix and he definitely succeeded in doing so. The only reason you could tell Kygo didn’t make this is because it doesn’t have the same main lead that pretty much all of his songs have. Other than that though, this is spot on. If by the off chance you were looking for more tropical house themed music, this should fit alongside your Kygo collection nicely.

Contests, Exclusive | Win VIP Table For 5 To The Stafford Brothers At Mister East 3/22
Posted by Middy on March 19, 2014
The ridiculous snow storm (I got 13 inches in 11 hours) canceled the last giveaway we tried to run with the Stafford Brothers, but now we are back in business with another outstanding giveaway. This time we will be heading through the tunnels and over the bridge into Jersey to Mister East. The giveaway will remain much the same, minus the meet and greet as you and 4 friends get a free VIP table + bottle to party with some of the hardest partiers around.
The kicker is that that if you are chosen as the winner, you will then be entered for the chance to win a Vegas trip for two including flights, hotel accommodation, $200 in funny money at the Crazy Horse strip club, and the opportunity to party with the Stafford Brothers. Sounds like a deal to me. Check out the rest of their spring tour dates after the jump and grab tickets here.
Events, Review | Tasty Treat: The Central Coast’s Most Dynamic Duo
Posted by Nick on February 9, 2014
FNT was lucky enough to have a chance to sit down with the up-and-coming Tasty Treat, a SLO-based duo that’s been throwing out bangers together for about the last year. Comprised of 23 & 24-year-old Devin Hardy and John Smith, Tasty Treat’s beginning to gain more and more credibility as an artist, currently getting their reps in on tour with Kicks n Licks of San Diego. With support from big names like Flume, DJ Snake, and Mr. Carmack, this was one opportunity I did not want to miss.
After meeting four years ago and DJ’ing parties under the alias “Casa Street Hooligans,” Devin and John had no idea that they would soon be on track to become one of the most, if not the most, talented electronic musicians in the area. Before Tasty Treat, however, both of them had diverse musical backgrounds, including Devin’s involvement in a high school band called “The Raging Hormones.” I did my best to scour the internet for evidence, and now you can find their hit single “Hindsight” right HERE – it’s pretty special to say the least.
All kidding aside though, Tasty Treat has shown a level of proficiency in a variety genres that most other artists can’t. The two started out with a more electro style, which eventually evolved into a mix of trap and future garage. One of the best examples of this, and possibly their most popular song, is an original track titled “You Got Me.”
To touch on their live performance, it was definitely one of the better sets I’ve seen in a while. Their strong showmanship, mixed with playing in their hometown, produced an intense vibe that was pretty spectacular to watch. Starting out with gLAdiator’s “Ain’t It,” Tasty Treat got the crowed hyped up from the very beginning, and got them even more stoked on some of their own tracks. For example, when John & Devin dropped their “Gas Pedal” remix, everyone was up on their feet, singing along; and when it dropped, the entire venue went absolutely insane.
Overall, Tasty Treat is an artist you need to keep an eye out for, and if you get the chance, to go see live. Already with support from major names so early in their career, John & Devin are right on track to take over the EDM industry, and really show everyone how much they can get you going. Make sure to give them some love on their social media platforms, and be one of the people to get them there.

Mashups | Trademark – Still Believe (Avicii X Tritonal X Martin Garrix X Feri & Multi)
Posted by Juicebox on January 28, 2014
Wondering where the hell Trademark has been? Turns outTrademark has been locked in the studio collaborating with one of the biggest vocalists in electronic music, Nadia Ali. If you get the chance to catch her live on her current tour, you can listen to the set her and Trademark put together. ANYWAYS, Trademark made another mashup and it’s another banger…what’s new.
