Hip-Hop | Aer – Slow Down ft. June
Posted by BIGLIFE on July 18, 2011
After releasing their EP “The Reach”, the duo from Mass is back with a new single featuring June. With their blend of reggae on The Reach, Aer struck the Sublime fan in us, but with “Slow Down” they have been able to strike another pleasurable nerve. “Slow Down” has a trip-hop flavor and laid back feeling that is perfect for kicking back and relaxing on these summer nights. The chorus on this track melts into the beat leaving you calm, cool and collected. Hat tip to Alexis.

House | Christian Luke, DJ Derekflow, and Aboutblank & KLC | House

Pretty cool video, wish they had one for the extended mix.
Since SHM dropped “Save The World Tonight” the only other name being tossed around the ‘house’ world is Avicii. Given “Snus” dropped a little ways back, Christian Luke’s remix is sweet. I just can’t keep to get this beat out of my head now.

DJ Derekflow is a little new to the mashup game. He is also one of the members of Reef’d, one of FNT’s favorite reggae groups. They have some real treats in store for us in the close future, but for now enjoy this cool house mashup of his.

I honestly have never heard of these guys before, but this is a sick track. I will say the build up seems a bit long, but once they jump in with the vocals the track shows its true colors. Once it picks up, this track is awesome.

Hip-Hop, Reggae | Diddy ft. Skylar Grey – Ooh Ahh Home (Remix) | Hip-Hop
Posted by BIGLIFE on April 28, 2011
Some of you may recognize this beat from the Grits classic hit “Ooh Ahh” which has been mashed/remixed with Diddy’s hit “Home”.

I’ve tried to hate Wiz Khalifa’s latest mainstream hit “Roll Up” because its obvious that Atlantic has taken away from the integrity of his music. Unfortunately, it’s just too catchy for me to resist. I was thrilled to see that Vybz had flipped this track a little by throwing his reggae flare into the mix.
Pop, Reggae | Mya ft. Sean Paul – Rear View Mirror | Reggae-Pop
Posted by BIGLIFE on April 21, 2011
These aren’t your typical reggae songs but since they feature Sean Paul and Jah Cure, I’ve categorized this post as such. If you’re looking for something to listen to while kicking back on the sunny porch, check these out. Sean P kills his verse in Rear View Mirror – the song is an ill blend of his signature sound and electro.

Dubstep | Skrillex – “Ruffneck Bass” | Dubstep
Posted by Mach on April 4, 2011
Skrillex is really tossing out some tracks right now. His Reptile theme is dropping tomorrow and he just dropped this sick reggae vibe dub. This track is FIRE. No doubt Skrillex is living up to his nickname right now, “Prince of Dubstep.”

Hip-Hop | Aer – “The Reach” | Hip-Hop
Posted by Mach on March 3, 2011
I posted a track of Aer’s about a week back. As I said before they bring a nice reggae vibe to the hip-hop scene. They dropped this video a few days ago, given the production isn’t up to par of artist like Mike Posner (unless your watching “Bow Chica Wow Wow”). This is still a great track, these guys deserve big respect on it.

I am never disappointed by what Zion I releases. The verses on this track are FIRE and I’m really feeling this beat.

The verses in this track are kinda messed up, but Tyler, The Creator is a beast on the mic. I warn you that this track gets graphic at points.

Last thing for this post is a sweet FNT WALLPAPER made by Minnesnowta.
Reggae | Reef’d – Brighter Days EP | Reggae/Rock
Posted by BIGLIFE on February 25, 2011
Although I rarely seek them out, every once in a while I’ll come across a dope band. This aptly titled band is everything you’d expect from a group called “Reef’d”. Take a little Rebelution, throw in SOJA along with some amateur flare and you’re all set. Here’s what the guys had to say about themselves
“Reef’d is the musical love-child of Chris Kwasnik, John Diamond, and Derek Donato. Brighter Days EP is a blend of west-coast style vibes with an east-coast mindset. Reef’d brings that sweet reggae music that’ll have you wishing you were on the beach, and whether your stuck in the snow in PA or chilling on the beach in Jamaica, sit back, light one up, and chill.”
