Ambient, Chill | Ruth Granton – People Help People (Isoline. Remix)

Posted by on August 18, 2013

Here is some chill music for your Sunday. Isoline absolutely takes your mind on a journey with this remix of “People Help People” by Ruth Granton. It’s part of her “People Help People EP” featuring two other remixes and the original track. Isoline’s version is by far my favorite. It’s mellow, soothing, and the vocals are killer – everything you want in an ambient track. Check out the EP on iTunes!

Events | THROWBACK THURSDAY: The Best of Global Dance Festival 2013

Posted by on August 15, 2013

After finally resolving some site issues and getting the chance to post up in one location for more than 24 hours, I am elated to present to you a recap of Fresh New Tracks’ favorite moments from this year’s Global Dance Festival.

Global Dance Festival is the hidden gem of music festivals, not-so-quietly tucked away between the soaring red rocks a few miles outside Denver, Colorado. This year marks the 11th running of the festival and to this day, Global has stayed true to its motive of keeping things fresh and innovative as both electronic music and the world evolve. Each day of the festival varied greatly from the next, catering to electronic music aficionados of every kind.

SO CHECK IT OUT, AFTER THE BREAK!

Albums, Electronic, Mashups, Mix | The Hood Internet – Trillwave 3

Posted by on August 14, 2013

Ahhhhhhh could not be more excited to share the latest release from The Hood Internet. So they’ve got this thing called Trillwave, which is basically a seamless, sensual, and poetic synthesis of popular hip hop vocals over chill, indie instrumental counterparts that make you wonder, Why weren’t these jams paired up before…? And the third installment of Trillwaves does not disappoint. MISHKA really hit the nail on the head by describing Trillwave as the type of mixtape for “when you have to entertain a mixed crowd, or if you need to take a long drive with someone who doesn’t worship at a temple for 808s for church bells.” And, in accordance with the rising trend, Trillwave 3 features quite a few subtle tributes to the sweet and sexy R&B of the 90’s. Oh, radical baby.

You can, and absolutely should, download the previous Trillwaves straight from The Hood Internet’s website here. And catch the tracklist after the break, especially my favorite pairings including Kanye West vs Daft Punk, Miguel vs RL Grime and Kendrick, Drake, and Giraffage.

LIVE FOR THE TRILL.

Electronic | gLAdiator – VIP EP

Posted by on August 14, 2013

In honor of hitting the 50k mark on Facebook, LA DJ duo gLAdiator released their VIP EP, a 3-track selection of some of their most popular tracks, tracks that you’ve probably heard at every music festival and block party this summer. Although it’s brief, each song varies enough to keep you on your toes for the release of their actual, official EP. The M1 Stinger track is dope though, probably my favorite out of the three. Download the EP and bump it today in honor of Mila Kunis’s birthday,who happens to be gLAdiator’s “muse and guiding light.”  With a muse like that, how could you possibly go wrong.

Dubstep | Luxe Laredo feat Honey LaRochelle – No Man’s Land (R/D + iLL Gates Remix)

Posted by on August 14, 2013

This remix is absolutely fire. R/D and iLL Gates’s remix of No Man’s Land blew my mind. It’s melodic, it’s glitchy, it’s funky and it’s bass filled. My favorite part is the break down at 2:06. The vocals are cut up in a way that I can’t help but bob my head to. Mad props for this remix, R/D and iLL Gates. You can download it for free on their website or purchase it on Beatport, iTunes, and Amazon.

ColePlante

I had the pleasure of being introduced these past 2 days to 16 year old DJ/Producer Cole Plant. Just looked up his music, and I had to share. I give this kid a lot of props and I have tremendous respect for him. He was shown the ropes by his father, working on records at his home studio, and has now finished up a tour opening for legend Paul Oakenfold, and headlined Lollapalooza in Chicago. Here’s a dope progressive house record called “Lie To Me” which was co-produced with Myon and Shane 54 and features the vocalist Koko LaRoo. Cole says that one of his favorite records is Motorcycle’s “As The Rush Comes,” and you hear these influences in this record. You can also anticipate a remix by R3HAB soon! Must listen, and support!

Chill, House | Asaf Avidan – One Day (The Knocks Remix)

Posted by on August 8, 2013

Asaf Avidan - One Day (The Knocks Remix)

The Knocks made my favorite track this year, “Modern Hearts“, so I am super excited to see anything new from them. The original has been beaten to death, that is no secret. However if there is someone who can revive it from the grave, The Knocks would be among the top candidates for song-zombificaiton (in a good way). Instead of attempting to inject their upbeat, disco style into the track, they stuck with the chilled out sound of the original, adding subtle pianos and synths to support the vocal. It’s free, so grab it.
