Apparel | Knot Belt Co KickStarter Campaign
Posted by BIGLIFE on January 28, 2013
Sometimes FreshNewTracks isn’t just about, well, fresh new tracks. And sometimes friends of FreshNewTracks are looking to accomplish huge feats that require help. Well this is where those two roads converge. If you’re a long-time loyal FNT fan, you may remember the gig I did about Knot Belt Co in the past. If not, you’ll get a nice introduction above/below.
Nick Manella of Knot Belts is trying to blow his side project out of the water by pushing his belts and accessories into full production mode. I’m here to help him and help you. The video will fill you in on the details, but there’s nothing like a product that has been made with passion. You can’t tell me you’d wear a belt made in China over a belt made here in the states…
If you’re feeling adventurous, charitable, or intelligent, make a pledge on KickStarter and help bring quality belts to the masses.
House | Bruno Mars – Locked Out of Heaven (Solidisco Remix)
Posted by Jess on January 27, 2013
It was just about a year ago that Solidisco broke out in the scene with their bootleg of Rihanna’s smash hit “We Found Love”. Since then, they have built a solid following for themselves and their unique take on Disco House. The the save vein as their Rihanna remix, Solidisco lends their funky production to Bruno Mars “Locked Out of Heaven” creating a funky take on the hit record. From smooth synths to screaming guitars, this one is a must download. In addition, download their remix of Anjulie’s “You and I” that is equally great.

Progressive House | Doctor P feat. Eva Simons – Bulletproof (Vicetone Remix)
Posted by Middy on January 24, 2013
The guys do it again. Ruben & Victor in honor of Ruben’s birthday a few days back have released their remix of Doctor P’s single with Eva Simons “Bulletproof” off of his 4 track EP out in September “Animal Vegetable Mineral Part 1”. Vicetone flips Doctor P’s 140 bpms and at times hard on the hearing synth leads for a crisp 4 on the 4 floor bass line and big room melodies that have made their rise to prominence possible. With yet another outstanding, clean production under their belt, it will be great to see them possibly expand into a larger multi-track release format and see what they have in store for touring in 2013.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Cam Meekins – This & That (ft. Chuck Inglish) [Official Video]
Posted by LoffyG on January 22, 2013
The Lamp City kid, Cam Meekins, is back with his newest song and video release. I present to you “This & That” produced by and featuring Chuck Inglish, well known for his work in the group The Cool Kids before splitting up in late 2012. I’ve always been a fan of Cam’s work and this track is no different. He’s constantly showing progression through his music whether its rapping, producing or directing, he does it all. Congrats to him for having his video for “Rain” recently hit the 1 milli club on YouTube.
Progressive House | Joe Ghost – Are You Ready (Hardwell Rework)
Posted by Middy on January 21, 2013
No stranger to edits and reworks, Hardwell takes this track from Canadian producer Joe Ghost and molds it into a release fit for his revered Revealed Recordings. As first premiered on Hardwell’s essential mix, we see Dutchman’s return to the production following the very successful “Apollo“. Hardwell’s work is very noticable with his hallmark synth present in both builds and while the snare is very similar to that of Yves V “Mandala“, its quick alternating pattern still remains a powerful weapon to be used in any set. With “The Code” set for release in 2 weeks, look for Revealed Records to have a strong start to 2013.

A few months ago we first introduced you to Maxxx Flair, a deft new lyricist from New York whose stock has risen dramatically behind a recent pair of earnest, eloquent releases.
