Bass | Koinu Keeps The Trap & Bass Coming With “IceIce” Remix

Posted by on March 29, 2016

Koinu is Varien, one of Monstercat biggest, baddest, and most unique artists. Hes started a new side project called Koinu which features modern dressed anime girls posing, dope ass bass music, videos – an overall experience.

Before I dive in, I want to know, htf does Koinu do that with his font/text? There’s no program/app that forces his font to conform to other fonts no matter what it seems, Koinu makes everyone else’s code conform to his font..crazy.

Anyway, back to the music. The best way Koinu can be described is a blend of the trap-dubstep sound that is being thrown around these days and eastern culture. Nick has always been good at creating worlds, it looks as if he is doing it again.

Leah Haxhi, NYC singer/songwriter, hits us with another Adele cover that rivals all the competition. Keeping it simple with just minimal piano and vocals, this live video gives you the feeling you are sitting right there in the studio with Leah. At first it seems as if she is keeping it very close to the original, but then the second chorus breaks off into a free-style bridge that adds a unique twist to the song. Live studio visuals by Marin Hamataj and Brenton Ruh also complement the relaxed feeling of the cover. We expect to see big things from Leah in the near future, as she is putting together a demo of original songs and also working on new tracks with various DJs and producers such as Afrojack, Shelco Garcia and Teenwolf, and some other hard-hitters in the EDM and pop world. Follow Leah for more music and updates coming soon.

Albums, Hip-Hop, RnB | Dylan Reese’s Debut Project ‘SILK’ is a MUST Listen For R&B Fans

For the last few months you may have caught some of Dylan’s creative Medleys on FNT and more recently the singles off his debut project SILK. The project comes after two years of curating his sound and working around the clock to better position himself in the industry.

When we checked in with Dylan, the Massachusetts native explained music is all he does; “I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I don’t go out and party. I do music.” When he isn’t working on his own music he is engineering for locals out of Massachusetts and helping other’s get to where they want to get in their careers.

SILK is truly a complete project; when listening to the project all the way through each song flows into the next perfectly with the outros playing perfectly in to the intro of the next song. There are some serious stand out tracks on this project such as Flex On U featuring Futuristic, which is more of a hip hop banger, but if you want to slow it down throw it on Little Things or Ironic.

The project is available on iTunes for $6.99, but you can listen for free on Spotify or even grab it all for free on SoundCloud.
