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.
Dubstep | R Rated #33
Posted by Sev on June 14, 2012
Schoolboy is known for his big remixes as of late. Who can forget his Antidote remix which is still rinsed out by Knife Party almost every show, or his Why I Love You So remix. Even better was his EP “The Science Project”, which contained my favorite track by him till date, Paradigm. Now embarking on his latest and largest remix for Infected Mushroom’s track Nation of Wusses; he has gone and done it again. Smashing another monster creation of his that is sure to have him noticed, if people don’t know of him already. This first preview has to be one of my favorite remixes of the week. Teknian crushing this Fade Into Darkness remix for the Avicii remix competition, but deciding to not submit it through. Instead he is going to lay down some original vocals for release later on, which excites me even more for its release.
InfraRed is moving onto big things as far as there upcoming releases. Some of the stuff I have been hearing is sounding monstrous and out of this world as far as dubstep and drum & bass. This Wickman EP is sounding big so be sure to be on the lookout for a release date in the upcoming weeks. I love the old school heavy sounds in this track and how they are all mixed in so well together.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Danny Brown – Grown Up (Official Video)
Posted by dshaq on June 5, 2012
Detroit’s very own Danny Brown, drops off the visuals his great single, Grown Up. Everything about this video is perfect. The little kid is not only a spitting image of Danny, the clothes and tooth accident make it that much better. Danny has been one of my favorite underground rappers for a minute, so if you have yet to get up to date with his stuff, do so! Also shouts to fellow Fools Gold member, Party Supplies, who produced the video.
Hip-Hop | Lil Wayne – Ghoulish (Pusha T Diss)
Posted by J_Salzer on May 25, 2012
For those of you that live under a rock, or just don’t keep up to date on hip-hop beef. A few days ago Pusha T released a song with a few obvious slams at YMCMB. The YMCMB captain decided to make it a full on battle by releasing this monster track that absolutely destroys Pusha T’s version after listening and analyzing both tracks, Pusha’s version kicks Wayne’s ass, although, at first listen Wayne wins because of his flow, Pusha T’s lyricism and actual slams at YMCMB are too tough. I know, Lil Wayne has fallen off, but the man can still ride a beat, and he still has a few good verses left in him. Sound of in the comments section or engage us on twitter to let us know what you think of this new beef. Publicity stunt? Real? All fun and games? Peep Wayne’s diss below and Exodus under that one. After all, What’s Beef?

Dubstep | R Rated #27
Posted by Sev on May 2, 2012
After seeing Emalkay live during Nocturnal Wonderland here in Texas, I can honestly say this tune absolutely smashes crowds and stages. I need a release date for this tune ASAP, because I can only listen to these rips for so long. Emalkay took my MVP out of all the performers during Friday of the festival, and this tune was probably the determining factor. Really hoping we get some more tunes from this guy soon. I’m happy to say we FINALLY have a new track from Killsonik that was released out of no where yesterday. After only releasing one remix for Nero last year these guys were never heard from again until recently. Having their new single put up on UKF dubstep as well promoting the release of their EP, “Blood Lust” , on May 28th. I will give it to them though, this is a killer remix.
Mach has been eagerly awaiting the release of this next remix by Stepsonics. I had never heard of him before this, but what a way to be introduced. The track has a nice buildup which slowly levels off to where everything goes silent. Next thing you know you get slapped in the face by the drop. Take this as your warning.
We are slowly seeing more and more material emerging from the Never Say Die camp. After their two track remix EP released last week as well as Skism’s remix a few weeks before that; now everyone awaits the release of this drumstep remix of Hadouken’s Parasite. Who wouldn’t want a remix from Skism AND Zomboy. From what I have heard Zomboy has a EP in the making, so looking forward to hearing some of his new bits in the upcoming months.
How many artist do you know that can take Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up aka Rick Roll’d theme song and create a sick glich hop remix over the vocals? I can only think of one and that is the 17 year old producer, Teknian. I’m not going to lie I would like it to just be an instrumental, but either way the beat is dope.
Next up is an artist I have been following and keeping in contact with for a while now, but nobody knows of the talent this guy really has. I think the original to this track was top notch, until I heard this remix by Andrew D. This guy really has no boundaries, dropping tracks through all genres that just keep blowing me away. Whenever I asked him to let me know when he finished this track, he told me if he ever does….. You can imagine the face I made; something along these lines 0_0. Check out this tune and let him know your thoughts in the comments and encourage him to finish this amazing remix!
