It has been a while since we saw anything from Roksonix and everyone, and I mean everyone is still waiting for their remix to Nero’s Me & You , but their is still no word on a release date for that track. To hold us over we have this upbeat banger that is sure to get your head bobbing. Giving us a taste of their highly appealing synth sounds along with some outrageous bass and laser synths. I’m a fan of their mid-track tempo changes as well which they show us again through this track. Grab this tune and the other off Beatport HERE.
Dubstep | Excision, Downlink – Crowd Control (Delta Heavy Remix)
Posted by Sev on August 14, 2012
The highly anticipated Excision and Downlink “X-Rated Remix Album” finally has a release date set for September 3rd featuring some of the biggest names in EDM on this list such as Dirtyphonics, Elite Force, Eptic, Lucky Date, Far Too Loud, Loadstar, Xilent, Specimen A, SPACE LACES, Calyx & TeeBee, and more. This is going to be a MASSIVE remix album to say the least. To hold us over until then Excision saw fit to release these two remixes of Crowd Control by Delta Heavy and Pixel Fist. Delta Heavy smashed their heavy drumstep remix with some of their gritty synths and fast paced drums. Pixel Fist fell a little short on their remix in my opinion, not really contributing anything out of the ordinary. You can get both remixes on Beatport HERE.
House, Preview | Swedish House Mafia – Don’t You Worry Child (Radio Preview)
Posted by Mach on August 10, 2012
After the success of the Milton Keynes Bowl, delivering the great trio’s final release, we now have a much better preview to tease our ears with. Not to be that guy, but this tracks instrumental is scary similar to “Save The World.” (Waits for target to be painted on the back of head) Being their last release, this track will undoubtedly top all music charts anyways. One thing that stands out more than anything is the lyrics that Swedish House Mafia have laid over from John Martin. If anything, vocalists are the reason that no one really seems to care how similar instrumentals are to previous releases. Look at David Guetta, he has practically made a living off of that production style.
I know I strongly come off as a hater of Swedish House Mafia, but I am just disappointed that Gemini seems to never be releasing his remix of “Miami 2 Ibiza.” My second defense is that this last release I love listening to way more than “Save The World.” There is no official release date yet, but myself and many will over play previews until that great day.
*Updated with Official sample.
Dubstep | R Rated #40
Posted by Mach on August 1, 2012
I am completely speechless right now after hearing this remix. Vexare has outdone himself, this remix is amazing. The saddest thing about this track is there is no official date for its release. Vexare said that he would be playing the full track at Next Level 2012 in Los Angeles, CA on August 11th. I wish I could go just to hear this played.
The original of this next track was actually really good. Flinch has been doing a lot of good work lately, but so has SPL. This is the third bomb remix from SPL I have heard in the past couple months. I didn’t think he could do another filthy remix like this after his “Gansters” VIP.
Exilica has been releasing one track after another for weeks now. Each one being just as good as the last, these two track have been released in just the past day. The first one, “Into Darkness,” is heavy enough to make my ears hurt in delight. The vocals are smooth and sweet, but that drop will kill you in your sleep. The second track is another original of Exilica’s called “The War.” I can’t for the life of me put my finger on the name of the movie sampled in this track, but it is just as filthy as the first.
Hip-Hop | The Deep Boyz – Fast Lane (feat. Fly Ty)
Posted by J_Salzer on July 15, 2012
A name that many of you haven’t heard before, The Deep Boyz, have released their best(and latest) track to date. You haven’t heard the name before because this group hasn’t seen the blogosphere…ever. So you heard it here for ladies and gentleman. Destello, owner of the first verse, is shipping out to Afghanistan in a few weeks, so it seemed fitting to post one of his final tracks before he goes to serve our nation. The Deep Boyz have a style of street rap scantily seen on our college music blogs. Make sure you stop by Destello’s facebook and thank him for his service to our nation.
Drum & Bass | Drum & Bass Fraturday
Posted by Mach on July 14, 2012
The weekly Drum & Bass post has seemed to be either on Fridays or Saturdays, mainly dependent on how satisfied we are with the Drum & Bass selection or how busy our Fridays tend to be. After drafting the post last night, I knew I had some great tracks for this post but was still disappointed in how much it actually contained. I am still not entirely satisfied, but some of these tracks can’t wait any longer.
First track is an awesome Reggae Hop styled Drum & Bass track from Jinx. With a little bit of Dub vibes as most Reggae has, this track is insanely catchy and addicting. I can’t begin to tell you how many times I have already listened to it.

This next one is definitely the rare Drum & Bass funky party tune. Sampling some of the 90s babies favorite jams including beat sampling from Austin Power’s theme track and other Pop Culture references. A fun track to listen to or party to.

Although this is only a clip with no official release date, Mitis has been on roll lately. He has been dipping his toes in almost every electronic genre and taking names in the process. The Drum & Bass/Drumstep original of his is nuts, Mitis wastes no time in blowing your mind.
Hip-Hop, Videos | Moufy – Blow My High (Video)
Posted by J_Salzer on July 8, 2012
Moufy hits us with his latest feel good track and visuals to keep us all tided over until his next major release. The fun-loving Moufy is pictured riding dirty around his city in this sunny video. The feel of the track is perfectly personified by the tone of the video. Although I could do without the “igh-igh-igh-igh” in the chorus, this is one of my favorite Moufy songs to date. Be on the lookout for an exclusive FNT release with Boston’s own coming to a computer near you next week.
Funny story(warning: not that funny), Moufy’s manager sent this over to me while I had food poisoning, and if anyone has had food poisoning, they’ll understand that it’s not the best time to be reviewing music. I told him I would post it and I forgot about it until a few minutes ago…so here we are..a few days late.
