Electro, Trap | Machel Montano – The Fog (Major Lazer & Grandtheft Remix)
Posted by Middy on July 15, 2013
Major Lazer are known for the wide range of musical influences and styles that they draw on and look to incorporate into their music. Whether it is their original work or remixes, they always bring something new to the table. In this latest remix with trap up-and-comer Grandtheft, they take this recent dance hall original from Machel Montano and add slight changes to make it their own. Instead of going for what has been their hallmark lately in trap, they stylize the remix around the dance hall sound, with chunky drums and synths that add an extra element to the track. The remix is free so be sure to grab this one below.
Hip-Hop, RnB | Trey Palms – I Hate You
Posted by admin on July 12, 2013
I’ve been following Trey Palms for quite some time now, and his most recent song “I Hate You” is without a doubt some of his best work to date. Seeing as I have a slight predisposition for melodic, R&B tracks I could be a bit biased, however, the hip-hop crossover record that Palms has crafted is likely to appeal to a wide range of audiences. He harmonizes his first two verses, warbling in a slight auto-tuned, yet full-emotion manor. Then, on the third and final verse he flips back to his rapping where he wraps up the song with a few well-delivered bars.
Although I can’t say I’ve been a fan of every single song that Trey Palms has ever released, he is surely making a mark in my mind and heading in the right direction.

Dubstep, Electronic | Crywolf – Ghosts EP
Posted by Mel on April 10, 2013
Aside from the rather lackluster Brazzers update, today was a pretty good day. Not only did my mom buy me Abercrombie cologne for some reason, but Crywolf’s new EP finally dropped. I should preface this by saying I am not a huge fan of dubstep. In fact, the last dubstep song I remember downloading was two years ago and it was from the master of dubstep, the one true god, Skrillex. Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites was it. Now just because I don’t download any doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate a good dubstep song. Luckily though, Crywolf’s EP spans multiple genres which range from dubstep to chill electronic. Justin Phillips, aka Crywolf, does his own vocals which for me is the highlight of the EP. My favorite track is easily “Ghosts”, primarily because his vocals are really put on display here and is complimented perfectly by a chill instrumental. “The Moon Is Falling Down” and “The Home We Made Pt. II” are available as free downloads on his Facebook. Be sure to grab the rest of the EP on iTunes.

Dubstep, Electronic, Glitch | Reso – The Rugged
Posted by Sev on February 26, 2013
Reso has been on the grind as of late creating some of the most intricate and unique tracks out there. His latest creation is a one of a kind Neuro-hop track that is crazy on the basses. After being signed to Inspected and on the verge of releasing his Tangram Remix EP, he decided to give away this track for free to showcase what is to come. This one is some next level KOAN Sound styled funk that is just too hard to describe. It is almost like if you took a 90’s hip hop vibe and mashed it with some of the most grueling, tearing mid-range basses in the business; that would be equivalent to the outcome of this track. Grab the free download and follow Reso for more updates on his upcoming releases.
