Indie | W8’s Indie Pack #1
Posted by W8 on November 3, 2011
Indie is the essence of a daydream, floating in the bluest water ever seen on a white sand powdered beach, staring up at stars shining in darkness, thinking there’s no place I’d rather be than in my imagination dreaming about this. My passion for an indie record sedates and humbles me, likely for you a genre yet to be discovered in all its inherent beauty. I’ve compiled over 1200 indie tracks this year alone and it only made sense to compress the gems out of my collection and share 15, some aren’t that new but have sympathy, for most they are. If you like the post, let it be known and they’ll continue.

Moombahton | Skrillex – Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites (TMH Moombahcore Bootleg)
Posted by Sev on October 30, 2011
Moombahton is on the rise, and honestly I love everything it has to offer. One avid promoter of the genre is Skrillex; who took Nadastrom and Dillon Francis on part of his Mothership Tour to help spread the word. TMH did a sick job turning this track into a moombah banger. I wouldn’t be surprised if some big names got a hold of this track and started dropping it live.

Dubstep | Benny Benassi – Come Fly Away (Dash Total’D Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on October 24, 2011
UNREAL Soft-core dubstep track. If you’re new to FNT (and there are lots of you so don’t feel shy about asking questions), soft core dubstep is what I like to refer to as vocal, easy on the ear, dubstep. Sure you have a few whomps here and there, but they won’t make your ears bleed. This is typically the only style you’ll see me post, I leave the rest up to Mach. This wonderful track embodies this “soft core” sub genre.

Dubstep | Dauwd – Ikopol

Yes, you are seeing that correctly, pun intended.
Download: Dauwd – Ikopol
This track came from a tape that was 99% garbage with one exception, this gem. Luckily I had the tolerance to hear it out, or this wouldn’t be happening. The beauty of not extrapolating any meaning from this song makes for the best feeling.
My ears are always circulating a wide variety of genres, and thank goodness some tracks not yet subjected to one. I’ve never been one to desperately cling a genre to a particular sound, or a description to art for that matter, it’s creepy and control freakish. Art should defy description, not dampen our imagination. It remains as is, why go ahead and try to make sense of it? Ask me, that’s everything art should not be….
Albums | XV-Blame Yourself
Posted by ATexas on October 17, 2011
Paying homage to a genre being brought back, XV mixes old school R&B with a new age feel. GLC, Casey Veggies and Emilio Rojas gang up with Seven to produce “Blame Yourself.” After the hook starts youre going to download it, so maybe just save yourself some trouble and click download now? It’s totally up to you. This Warner Bros artist is coming up big and hot.

Electro | Rage Against The Machine – Testify (SmarterChild Remix)
Posted by GMONEY on October 7, 2011
If you have failed to notice, I am a massive SmarterChild fan. This guy literally does it all, from remixing mainstream Jason Derulo heaters, to trance-fying (if that wasn’t already a word it is now btw) KOPPS LA Lights. His latest release takes on yet another genre with Rage Against The Machine’s Testify. When SmarterChild told me that he has been itching to remix this track, I really didn’t know where he would take this. Well, he manages to catapult this rock rager into the electro age with this hard hitting remix which skillfully holds onto the integrity of the original, while simultaneously invigorating it with epic dance floor flare.

Moombahton | DJ Real Juicy x gLAdiator x Ying Yang Twins – “Twerkulator” (Danger Moombah-Bounce Mix)
Posted by Mach on September 16, 2011
Moombahton has grown on me a lot. Until recently, I just didn’t understand its popularity. Now I get how crazy this genre is, a track like this one makes me curious of the experience involved in a live Moombahton show.
