Dubstep | R Rated #53
Posted by Mach on October 31, 2012
Fuck yes (yea I swore, grow a pair). Buygore comes out with an ear-raper every once in a while, today Sev delivers their next. I am familiar with the original but had no idea a VIP existed (VIP=Variation In Production). This track is nuts, it is the definition of R Rated. It releases November 12th on Buygore Records.
Well, today is Halloween, why not kick off R with an epic Halloween freebie. RUN DMT made my ear hurt on this one.
At Dawn We Rage has always been providers, but as their most recent release shows, heavy bass is not out of their reach. This track goes hard but in a way that says, “fuck you, we can do whatever we want.” Ah, music to my ears.
Clart Kent just released his epic collaboration with Oscar Daniels last week of their remix of “Skyfall.” Today he again collaborates on an epic, laser filled remix. “Too Close” has been over played on the radio, but that doesn’t mean artists can’t turn it into something new. Well, here it is, the new, heavy, lasered, “Too Close.”
It is my disappointment to say that I have only posted R/D once, but he hasn’t exactly released much. Honestly I did not expect my next post with him to contain a new original of his. His synth and bass work simultaneously owns face to the ears on this track. I can feel my future grandchildren being raped by bass, and in the Halloween spirit, I approve.
Albums, Hip-Hop | Marc Goone – Young Khlaeesi
Posted by J_Salzer on October 29, 2012
Alright, on some realness here, I have no idea what this is. This music is either for you, or it’s not. It just so happens it’s for me. And I’m the one with the posting power, so here we are. I’ve always thought Goone’s lyrics were cool, witty, etc., but nothing ever stood out to me. But this, this is different. The video is awesome, the video description is awesomer, and Goone is straight goonin on this. Take it for what it is. It’s not “hood” rap. It’s “fun” rap.
Dubstep | True Tiger – Big Love (Haze Remix)
Posted by Mach on October 28, 2012
I have literally been checking the internet for a leak of this track everyday since its preview on UKF. Of course UKF had the idiots who compare every song to Skrillex because they have no actual idea of what Dubstep is. Haze, which is actually another allias of Dubstep filth monger, Funtcase, releases songs that are smooth unlike the Funtcase tracks that are crunchy and heavy. True Tiger produced an incredible original track featuring female vocalist Maiday. The vocals are really what set this original off, but Haze came in and dropped smooth enough bass to make a baby stop crying. It’s melodic strength with the vocals has made this a must have for all time. Grab it off of Beatport HERE.
Alternative | Drake Ft The Weeknd – Crew Love (Gemini Cover)

This cover has led me to do research on Gemini, turns out this is him singing on this track. Gemini actually sings on most of his music which I had no idea it was him (because he sounds really close to a woman). On this cover, Gemini used much less autotune than he usually does. Although he sounds like Florence and the Machine, he truly does have an incredible voice. The instrumental work is always something to try to compete with, his Piano work is beautiful. This is a pleasant surprise from Gemini.
Hip-Hop | SplYt – Catch 22 (Mixtape)
Posted by J_Salzer on May 23, 2012
I had never heard the name SplYt(split) before until a few weeks ago when his manager dropped something in the chatbox, I had time, so I gave it a listen and wasn’t impressed. Sure, the kid has some flow, and the beat was decent, but I had no idea it could lead to a project like this. Every beat is carefully chosen, and each one if murdered in its own respect. Keep in mind that SplYt is new to the game, this is his freshman tape, and he shows loads of potential. Of course, there are some things that he could do better, but it would be a crime not to post this. This kid is going places. I’ve had enough with the over saturation in the rap game, and I can’t stand MCs that don’t do anything unique, but this kid just has straight talent.
Chill, Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | Beau Young Prince – Dream Catcher (Mini-Mixtape)
Posted by J_Salzer on May 14, 2012
After a brief hiatus from the making of good music, actually, let’s call it a hibernation. Beau Young Prince has returned with a vengeance. Recognizing that he’s been off his game, Beau took the necessary steps to get back on track with this mini-mixtape. Although the tape is only six songs deep, it features Beau showing off some serious versatility. He tackles some faster paced beats, keeping up with the higher tempo with ease. And flows over the chill, slower beats without missing a beat. Admittedly, one track, Wild Things Are, I have no idea what the hell is going on with, but it’s a pretty cool beat.
I found it interesting that Beau named the tape Dream Catcher, because after his lack of quality music in the past few months, it shows me that he’s back, and dedicated to the dream that so many artists are vying for. You. All artists are out to gain fans, because they know that they’re the ultimate key to their success, and Beau knows that he’s been off his game, but he’s back. Last night, I asked Beau why he chose a bed for the cover, and he said because that’s where dreams occurred, and he really liked the image his guy brought him.
Bootleg, Progressive House | Henrik B & Rudy vs. Kaskade – Leave A Light On For My Eyes (Buck Bootleg)
Posted by Mach on May 9, 2012
Having Axwell play his bootleg of ‘Save The Punk’s Heart,’ Buck has has been powering out bootlegs. A Junior at Middlebury College, this newest of Buck’s really caught my eye, he was right to think that the vocals from these two tracks are a great fit together. He was telling me how his friends love his bootlegs so much, that they expect him to make one everyday, haha. Now that is not out of reach, I think his current method is working very well for him. Below this new bootleg are a few of his older works to give you an idea of creative formula, enjoy.
