Trap | Chief Keef – Hate Bein’ Sober (Dotcom’s Festival Trap Remix)
Posted by Juicebox on December 4, 2013
If you’re in need of a little pick me up on this humpday, Dotcom has got you covered! Just when you think the drop at :28 is heavy enough, 1:09 comes along and Dotcom delivers exactly what he promised; a heavy festival trap drop. While Dotcom always crushes it with his heavy hitting remixes, we haven’t seen him indulge in trap much. Keep your fingers crossed this isn’t a one time thing for Dotcom cause this trap remix is the definition of a banger.
Deep House, Pop | Marlene – Bon Voyage (1987 Remix)
Posted by VMan on December 3, 2013
This summer I shared this track “Bon Voyage” by Marlene, a Swedish pop artist, and called out for remixes, considering the acapella was up for free download. Fast forward a few months and my call was answered with 4 official remixes by Niklas Bergwall, Thomas Eriksen, 1987, and Rambo Hollywood. Out of all the remixes, the one that stood out to me the most was 1987’s. 1987 toned down the vocals, and slowed the track down overall giving it a deep house feel. This is Marlene’s first single, and I’m excited to hear more from her. This is a must listen!
Chill, Trap | Drake – Too Much (GXNXVS Remix) (Feat. Sampha)
Posted by BP on December 3, 2013
I know, I know, you’re sick of seeing remixes of Drake’s songs… But I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that this is probably my favorite Drake remix I’ve ever heard, and that’s saying something considering how many Drake remixes I see a day! This came out a week ago, but I don’t feel that it got the recognition it deserves. The vocals cuts are eerie and the piano is fantastic. Australian artist GXNXVS doesn’t have a lot of Soundcloud support, so go follow him and download this track for free!
Exclusive, Progressive House | Krewella – We Are One (Sevag Area-201 Remix) [FNT Exclusive]
Posted by Middy on November 25, 2013
Krewella are no stranger to remixes, with their first worldwide smash single “Alive” seeing remixes and edits from just every corner of every genre. Their recent album “Get Wet” provides many more opportunities for over-remixing, however this sea of mediocrity allows certain gems from big and small names alike to stand out.
In steps New Jersey native and Mister East resident Sevag, who adds his own on one of the festival friendly selection from Krewella’s album “We Are One”. Sevag keeps festival friendly feel of the original, making sure to highlight Yasmine and Jahan’s vocals, but adds his own percussive flare to give it more bounce. Grab it for free below and check out his socials for more from him.

Electro | Gizzly Bear – Will Calls (Diplo Remix)
Posted by yabishcic on November 23, 2013
Though Diplo is known for his upbeat, crazy ass beats that get people out of there seats to go wild, this is probably one of his more low-key remixes. It still goes though. Synth heavy and lyrically full, Diplo turned Grizzly Bear‘s ‘Will Calls’ into some downtempo trip-hop that is actually pretty pleasing to the ear. After listening to it a couple times it has already grown on me. #Loveit
Electro | Felix Cartal – New Scene FT. Ofelia (Lazy Rich Remix)
Posted by J-Tiffy on November 21, 2013
Here is another great electro remix from Lazy Rich, adding to the list of great remixes of this song. I really appreciate that he puts a different spin his remixes. Although I can always anticipate that I’m going to get a fat, meaty electro drop, the presentation is always a surprise. The short lines of big synths during the build are very cool. Even though the drop sounds a bit generic, the little things make a difference for me: the wide, fat synths, the layering and roughness added to them, the pattern they’re arranged in, and the fact that it meshes so well with the interesting build. It doesn’t feel like a cut-and-paste remix, where the drop could have been slapped into any other song.
Lazy Rich notoriously posts previews of these big remixes, including all of the juicy bits that get you jazzed up for the release – which in this case will be on December 3rd. You can pre-order now, or just wear the sh*t out of the preview. Either way, I encourage you to get excited for December 3rd.
