Chill, Drum & Bass, Dubstep | Fractal – Spection EP

Posted by on January 20, 2014

Fractal’s new two track EP called “Spection” is pretty impressive. He shows skill in two different genres, first drumstep in “Spection” and then chill/ambient in “Mountain Hunter”. Both tracks are excellent. “Spection” is fast, fun and full of growls. Definitely a head bobber. “Mountain Hunter” is mellow, eerie, and even though chill isn’t a genre that Fractal frequents, it was a pleasant surprise to see it done so well. This EP is worth checking out for sure.

Alternative, Indie | Favela. – Easy Yoke

Posted by on January 10, 2014

The second track off the forthcoming album Easy Yoke EP, “Easy Yoke” by Favela. makes for a pretty easy listening song with great lyrics and a feel that’s somewhat addictive, making you want to press replay when it’s over. The track is simple – yet simply irresistible. Definitely gonna be waiting for the drop of this EP.

I have never quite come to a conclusion on whether or not I find the Nervo twins attractive but I’m leaning towards no. I am leaning towards yes however when I discuss whether Moiez is one of the top progressive house producers in the Vancouver area, which I never do. His newest release is a remix of R3hab, Nervo and Ummet Ozcan’s “Revolution” and honestly, it’s good. He keeps a lot of elements from the original but adds a melodic touch that the original was lacking, primarily in regards to the drop.

While I’m generally not one for hardstyle, UK native Jay Cosmic dropped his remix of the festival hit “Tsunami” earlier and it is incredibly good. The song starts cinematically after the brief intro and then builds and drops with the melody from the original, but then strays from the original and gets even better in the second half of the song. I am obviously terrible at describing hardstyle tracks but if you are a fan of the genre this is definitely one to check out.

Mix, Mixtapes, Review | 10 Mixes From 2013 That Made My Jaw Drop

Posted by on December 23, 2013

One cool thing that happened to me this year was that I got hired on to write for FNT. I have followed this website for years and it has led me to mountains of great music. I’m glad that I now have the opportunity to share music with the website. This year I became a bigger fan of mixes; I love to see what artists can do when given an extended period of time within which they can be creative. Below is the list of 10 mixes that I liked the most from this past year, with some other mixes mentioned at the end that didn’t make this list based on who knows what. The list is more or less ranked in order, with mix #1 definitely being my favourite. If you don’t want to listen to all of the mixes, and don’t care what I have to say about them, then skip ahead and at least listen to the number 1 mix – Space Jams by The M Machine (hence the above, cool picture of those guys). Thanks for supporting the website by visiting it, thanks for supporting artists and their music, and thanks for reading our posts.

Not going to lie, I discovered the original “Free” by Emeli Sande about a week ago as I took the time to check out Rudimental’s album, and this is one of the hottest records of the year. To say this much, I’m glad Cash Cash and Gazzo hopped on this for a remix. Released by Big Beat just a few minutes ago, this remix does the original justice. This is definitely a must listen, and if you’ve never heard the original, do yourself a favor and go look it up!
