Indie | Bijan – Letters
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 3, 2011
I’m not serving the average cup of FNT banger or hip hop tea with this one. Much to the contrary, this is caught somewhere in between an indie hop and Grieves track. I can definitely dig the change of pace, hopefully you can too…

Hip-Hop | J_Mal – My Pride My Passion
Posted by GMONEY on October 25, 2011
After dropping a number of serious track from his album over the past month, we proud to officially drop J_Mal’s My Pride My Passion. I think that this title is especially fitting because passion is definitely a word I would use to describe this project. Another word I would use is diverse because, J_Mal boasts tracks which span accross many of FNT’s favorite genres, including Hip-Hop, Electro, and RnB. Whatever your tastes, I am confident you will be able to find something in this project that really get you fired up.

Electro | Madeon – Icarus (Teaser Video) & Electro Essentials Announcement
Posted by Mach on October 12, 2011
Kids these days… no really, kids these days seem to be jumping into music production. Producing tunes is the new in, and young artists, such as Madeon, are rising fast. The video is a teaser that was filmed over the summer in Paris. Probably the coolest way to share a preview of a new track. The track Icarus has no official release date yet. I have heard rumors that it is being featured on Nintendo’s upcoming remake of Kid Icarus. I highly doubt that though, considering Madeon isn’t old enough to know what it is. It is unofficial currently, but Madeon is supposed to have an EP dropping before the end of the year. Heard something different or don’t agree? Share in the comments. Below I have provided a few tracks of Madeon’s for those of you who are unfamiliar with his work.

Essentials Announcement
Middy and myself have spent the past few days working on the next essentials list for everyone. The goal has been to work together so as to make the choices less biased and truly be essentials to your ears. This Electro list features artists such as Madeon, Feed Me, Pretty Lights, and Spencer & Hill. With only a little more work to do to complete the list, Middy and I plan to release this bad boy this coming Tuesday, Oct. 18th. Expect news on the Hip-Hop, House, and Party essentials soon.
