Electro, Electronic, Hip-Hop, Trap | DJ Smiles – Twerk Trap
Posted by admin on June 25, 2013
We here at Fresh New Tracks are excited to bring you the newest mix from none other than, DJ Smiles! The disc jockey best known for his worldwide touring with reggae-duo, Aer, has decided to liven up your summer with this epic forty-five minute mix guaranteed to get you hyped!
DJ Smiles released The State of the Come-Up this past January, featuring some of the hottest rising rappers in the game, and while we anxiously await the next volume of the series, Smiles tides us over with “Twerk Trap”. If I told you that the likes of Tyga, Trinidad Jame$, Young Jeezy, and Lil Mama, were featured on the mix, you’d probably drop what you were doing and start twerking on spot — so I won’t tell you that. But, what I will tell you is that this song-collage is well worth the near-hour you’ll be investing into it.
All of you readers are the first to listen DJ Smiles’ mix, so feel lucky, and spread the love by dropping him a comment over on Soundcloud!
Indie, Interviews, Progressive House | ASTR – Operate (The Chainsmokers Remix) + Exclusive Interview
Posted by Mel on June 20, 2013
It has been roughly four months since my hand slightly grazed my sister’s friend’s thigh. Coincidentally, it has also been about four months since I first heard of The Chainsmokers. Since then, my hand has been many places but none as sweet as that. I have also watched The Chainsmokers grow from two decent looking guys to two excellent looking guys who make awesome music. Their first remix that got my attention was of Jonsi’s “Around Us”. That track… it made me feel for the first time. Sara B, the girl who had a crush on me in eleventh grade, I get you now. The Chainsmokers taught me how to love. Since then I’ve learned to take it, roll it up into a ball, toss it in the air and if there’s not a steady current of wind, I smash that into oblivion.
Picture yourself walking through the city late one night when you see a beautiful girl sitting in a coffee shop eating a plum. She is facing outward toward the street and the store’s walls are glass so you two can see each other. You want to go talk to her but you can’t find the door to get in. Not being able to figure out where the entrance is, you go up to the glass and relentlessly stare at her. Upon closer inspection you realize that she is in fact eating an oddly shaped apple not a plum. “Why are you eating an apple?” you mouth to her. You can hear her say through the glass while turning the apple “no no, this is a plum”. After seeing the flesh of the fruit it is indeed a plum. You then turn around to go home and find $20 on the ground.
The combination of slight disappointment, confusion, and joy that night brings is what I think of their latest remix.
We also had a chance to talk to them about life’s most important questions, such as “If you were to suddenly wake up in the middle of the night for seemingly no reason and upon looking to the nearest wall saw a hole that has never been there before the size of the middle, cardboard part of a roll of toilet paper, would you stick stuff in it?”. Click past the break if you want to laugh, cry, and be inspired.
Dubstep, Glitch | Survivor – Eye Of The Tiger (Haywyre Remix)
Posted by Mach on June 15, 2013
Haywyre just kicked off his Song Per Week Project and so far so… awesome! I have been saying it for over a year now, Haywyre is one of the most underrated Glitch-hop producers out there. His skills in composition and production surpass most around him, leaving you absolutely in love with almost everything he puts out. This remix of “Eye of the Tiger” is unlike anything you will hear.

Progressive House | Johnny Stimson – Human Man (The Dirty Tees Mix)
Posted by Mel on June 12, 2013
You know, I probably should have told you guys a while ago but I might as well do it now. I AM attracted to females. You may have thought because I often call guys beautiful and good looking that I was into that sort of thing but no way! There’s nothing I enjoy more than meeting a nice girl, hanging out with her a bit, then never talking to her again. It’s times like this that I am pleased to find an excellent house remix to the song “Human Man” by Johnny Stimson, which is essentially about what every song is about these days, a guy and a girl falling in love. The Dirty Tees are the duo responsible for this great remix so, if you feel like it, go hold a girls hand or something. Make her feel special. Take her to an amusement park or mini golf or whatever, then never talk to her again. It’s the only way.
Drum & Bass | KillSonik – Leviathan
Posted by Mach on June 8, 2013
KillSonik killing it again. This epic Drum & Bass “Leviathan” is one of the best tunes I have heard from the duo, even during their days as Chasing Shadows. The electric guitar on this track has the rocker in me air strumming like my life depends on it. It is one of the coolest instruments, in my opinion, that anyone could include in a song. Classic Drum & Bass lovers may not be as into this, but if you love terrifying bass, this original is for you.

If you know anything about HAHA-YO, it should be that they simply live and love life to its fullest. Their new EP entitled, Hey. encompasses just about everything that the duo stands for. Just in time for your summer parties or lazy days on the beach, Hey. is jam-packed full of songs that just put you in a good mood.
I encourage those of you are ballers, to purchase the album and support these two young men in their musical dream, but even if you are not quite baller enough to buy the album, there is of course a free download.
Enjoy the ten glorious tracks and and hit this jump for the free download and endless summer enjoyment!
Chill, Hip-Hop, Trap | Milagro – Smokey
Posted by Mach on June 5, 2013
This chilled out Trap original from Milagro took my breath away. The instrumentals have me bumping, but I really love the vocal samples used on this. The track is 2 months old but seeing as Milagro only has 200 plays, more people need to hear this.
