Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Glitch | Kursa – SDBN EP

Posted by on July 30, 2013

Kursa - SDBM EPSev and I have been watching Kursa closely this year. He has been uploading some the dirtiest previews to his Soundcloud for months now and finally we get to share a release with everyone. Listening to the preview of “SDBN” did it no justice, Kursa set this sweet baby up to rock your world through a full play only. The track opens strong, taking that Neuro bass straight through your ears to the pleasure center of your brain. “Just A Glitch” is a funky Glitch-Hop/Neuro blended track, exercising its name to the fullest degree. This has to be my favorite track on this two track behemoth of an EP. The second drop just owns face in terms of glitch tracks, there just isn’t any track that comes to mind that could trump this tune. Kursa’s “SDBN” EP is out now through Caliber Music.

Dubstep | Mark Rosas – Higher (Inaki Remix)

Posted by on July 27, 2013

Inaki’s melodic remix of “Higher” was released this Saturday afternoon and it is absolutely stunning. Inaki is just 18 years old, but his dubstep tracks are exceptional. He made sure not to overpower the vocals with bass, but the bass will still blow you away. It has a slow buildup and when the drop finally hits, it doesn’t disappoint. This track will definitely kick off your Saturday night in the right direction. Play this one on some big speakers, and download it for free!

DO SOMETHING

Ambient | Daughter – Youth (Dotcom Remix)

Posted by on July 24, 2013

In a world so over saturated with rushed productions and distasteful “EDM” remixes, finding a remix that brings the original track into a new light while still accentuating the beauty of the original has become an impossible task. Too often do we see the sonorous vocals of Ellie Goulding or Adele trashed with the accompaniment of a preset synth in Nexus followed by a cheesy drop. But every once in a while, you come across something else. You come across a remix that has not only given new life to an already inspiring song, but a remix that has actually bettered the track, all whilst still encompassing it’s original beauty and stems. Someone call up Daughter and sign this as an official remix, I tip my hat to you Dotcom.

Progressive House | The Two Friends ft. Jeff Sontag – Sedated

The Two Friends’ latest original “Sedated” features the superb vocals of Jeff Sontag and follows the same vein as their previous remix of “World In Our Hands” that I found a liking to. It starts off a little slow before finding its stride in the build and fully taking off in the drop. Even though there is an oddly out of place piano during the drops, this is still a great song that is worth sharing.

Electro-House | Ak9 – Ye (Cormak Remix)

Posted by on July 12, 2013

ak9 - Ye (Cormak Remix)Holy hell, these are the tracks I like to have on a Friday. Cormak is pushing to break 100 likes on Facebook right now and just drop this banging Electro-House remix. The intro has a calm progressive feel to it, but don’t let that tell you what the rest of the song will sound like. The drop is full of so much energy all you can think to do is rage to the bass. Show Cormak some love for this incredible tune.

Dubstep, Exclusive, Featured, House, Preview | BeatauCue – Aeropolis + Others Remix (Preview) [FNT Exclusive]

Posted by on July 10, 2013

BeatauCue - Aeropolis EP

As head of forward thinking label Kitsuné, French duo BeatauCue, are known for their funky, groovy originals and remixes that may not put them on the MainStage, but it has earned them the respect as both outstanding producers and label owners. They have given us the opportunity to exclusively preview their upcoming single “Aeropolis”, set for release August 5th on their label Kistuné, along with one of the remixes on the package from London dubstep artist The Others. The original calls to mind a bit of an Eric Prydz sound with its rolling bass line, a strong groove and punchy and unrelenting synth chords that culminate in a huge danceable drop. The Others derives his builds from the original, but true to his sound adds deep, heavy, sub rattling growls and an ominous lead to flip the script on this track and make it his own bass heavy addition. Look for these on July 29th with additional remixes from Neosignal and Slick Shoota, which you preview in the minimix below.
