Albums | ill-Esha – Happiness Is Lonely
Posted by Nick on March 2, 2014
Without making too much of a political statement, I just think it’s worth taking note of female producers who can get their work recognized. Honestly, it’s quite a bit harder for women in this part of the music industry to get noticed, so when they do, it’s definitely in your best interest to check them out.
This time with a chilled-out, dubstep original, Denver native ill-Esha gives you something special to kick back to, bringing together deep bass and slow vibes in an incredible fashion. Luckily for you, the entire 11-track Open Heart Surgery album is up for “name your price” download on Bancamp, so make sure you grab yourself a copy.

Chill, House | The Red Hot Chili Peppers – Scar Tissue (N’to Remix) [Free Download]
Posted by Nick on February 18, 2014
I’m not entirely sure how I missed this, but if you did too, I highly recommend you come check out this remix of The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Scar Tissue” – like right now. N’to, a producer from the depths of France, released this housed-up edit about a month ago, and it’s probably one of the coolest twists on a classic track that I’ve heard in a while. So – kick back, relax, and throw this one on repeat for a little while: I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Electro, Exclusive | FNT Exclusive: Mason – Savantas
Posted by Middy on February 17, 2014
Amsterdam veteran duo, Mason are back with another 3-track EP (the third is some abstract refurb of the “Savantas”), and we are here to bring the exclusive download for the A-side “Savantas”. Minimal and tough, “Savantas” relies on a punchy kick and a brooding melody that makes this easy to slip into any techno-styled set. The EP has already seen some support from names like Brodinski, Digitalism, Groove Armada and more, so don’t miss out on the free download. Grab “Savantas” and “Herd On The Scene” on Beatport here or just grab the exclusive free download of “Savantas” below.

Hip-Hop, Rap | Trey Palms – Back of My Mind
Posted by admin on February 14, 2014
Trey Palms has been on my radar for quite some time now and with his newest release, “Back of My Mind”, he has solidified in my mind the ability that he has to create catchy rap-R&B records. Trey has been working hard to live out his music dreams, travelling between his hometown of Baltimore and New York City. And, although I’m sure it isn’t easy, the hard work shows in his most recent work.
“Back of My Mind” is upbeat, fun and definitely a fitting track to kick off your Valentine’s Day plans (or lack thereof). Be sure to follow Trey on SoundCloud, and leave some feedback below!
Albums, Alternative, Hip-Hop | Aer – Aer [Album]
Posted by Grubeats on January 22, 2014
Sitting pretty at the number 5 spot on iTunes top 10 album list, Aer’s self titled album might be taking noobs by storm, but it’s exactly what their loyal fan base has been anticipating. Covering all the bases, the 12-track project is diverse enough to fulfill multiple moods, but stays within the walls of Aer’s self constructed genre. Attributing their success to their organic word-of-mouth FAMily, David and Carter did spend a fair amount of time writing and recording in LA, but finished the album up in their hometown studio…David’s bedroom.
“In the hills or the valley, and were far from the finale, I want this so badly, no I won’t let go.”
Aside from their previously released singles (“Won’t Laugh”, “Spades, Clubs, & Diamonds”, and “Says She Loves Me”), my immediate favorites are “Pretty Lady”, “Stars” and “Movin’ It”. Recline, kick up your feet and enjoy this project while you support the dudes on iTunes.
