Progressive House | OneRepublic – Counting Stars (Lonczinski Remix)
Posted by Mel on July 2, 2013
We’ve already heard many OneRepublic remixes but, at least for me, this was the first “Counting Stars” remix I’ve come across. I have become very familiar with Lonczinski’s style, probably because it is as generic as they come. That doesn’t mean it’s not good though. Well, kind of. These types of songs are good for a few days, but will you be listening to it two weeks from now? Unlikely. It’s producers like this who need to step out of the box and make something with staying power. Sure, this song’s not bad, it’s actually quite good seeing as how I feel the desire to post it, but this type of music is shallow and if a producer only sticks to this formula then they are clearly taking the easy way out. You should know something is wrong when a person can say “yeah, this is a good song” after listening and still not care enough to download it.

Electronic, FYI | deadmau5 gets “back to music”
Posted by mimada on June 27, 2013
I’m going to try not to touch on anything that’s going on with Deadmau5 in the media at the moment but I will say that it’s been an eventful few days for him. Between breaking free from the chains of Ultra Records, partnering up with Capitol Music Group, and premiering some insane robotic mau5heads at his show in Vegas, things have really been heating up. There may have been some news about him on various gossip sites this morning, you know, not really sure what that’s all about BUT it seems he took FNT author Sev’s advice and dropped two new tracks to keep the ball rolling. If only every musician could respond to negative press like that….
We’ll see how things play out.

Events | Flume Announces North American Fall Tour
Posted by Middy on June 11, 2013
We have given you a small taste of what Flume has to offer the past few days and if you have not gotten his album go and do so immediately. Flume has already taken Australia by storm with his Infinity Prism Tour and now looks to expand his horizons beyond the Aussie coasts.
He will be in Europe this summer for a substantial tour, but this fall he will be arriving stateside a 17 date tour, spanning from San Francisco and Vancouver, to Toronto and New York in August and September. Technically the tour is at the end of Summer, but in dance music seasons, it is the fall. Expect the tickets to fly off the shelf with the growing popularity of Flume, so be ready when they do go on sale.
Hip-Hop, RnB | Stwo – Wifey
Posted by Mach on June 9, 2013
Stwo uploaded this amazing R&B track a few days ago, sadly then it was only a preview. Today I am happy to be posting this track with a download. Stwo is an incredible producer, I have been addicted to his tracks for months now and every release gets better than the last. Don’t let this song or any other tracks from Stwo slip through your fingers, I have the feeling he is just getting started.

House, Review | Stars Above – Higher Than The Sky EP
Posted by Mach on May 21, 2013
Stars Above is always serenading me with his touch of Trance on his House tracks. it has been well over 18 months since Stars Above was able to release an original production, but he is now here with two epic tracks. Every time I hear a new tune from Stars Above I imagine myself under a massive tent, then I turn up my volume and get lost in the music. His title track, “Higher Than The Sky” makes me want to throw my arms in the air that high. The second drop breaks into an awesome dance vibe, something to make any big room just lose it. “Daybreak” wakes me up, seriously, it has been my alarm for a few days now and I love it. It is the perfect progression for lightening my mood from “I can’t believe I actually have to get out of bed this morning”. Out of the two, “Daybreak” is definitely my favorite, I am just a sucker for piano and Stars Above delivered.
House | Funky Friday #5
Posted by Mach on March 29, 2013
Funky Friday back again to help all of us add a little spunk to our weekends. I usually try to stay away from bootlegs, but this one caught my eye instantly. I’m sure the Disco Stars were thinking, “the Jackson 5 would be awesome to make Disco-House”. Whether they actually thought that or not, this is sweet funky tune.
I swear this guy knows I have had my eye on his music. He just hasn’t stopped releasing anything since I first posted him. i don’t know if this is the usual for him or not, but this guy has some real talent in creating some funked out originals. Below are just a few tracks that he has released in the past few days.
Last, we have a real funky soul jam. I really do not know much about any of these artists, this is completely out of my field of knowledge. However, I like this track a lot. It is what grew into the styles you hear above, it’s the real deal funkity funk.
Preview, Progressive House | Vicetone Ft. Collin McLoughlin – Heartbeat
Posted by Mach on February 25, 2013
FNT’s favorite vocalist teams up with one of the top up and coming House producers to bring us one unbelievably beautiful Progressive House original. Monstercat has been on a roll with releases this year. Vicetone and Collin don’t wait long on this track to collide, sending emotion throughout your body and mind. You can tell that Collin has been tuning his voice into something well worth hearing daily on the radio. I don’t think the two could have asked for a better collaboration. “Heartbeat” releases in just a few days on March 1st.
