RECAP VIDEOS: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3
Being from Colorado I went into SnowGlobe Music Festival in South Lake Tahoe, CA a bit cocky thinking it would be impossible for me to get cold but the first day proved me wrong. Despite being bundled up in huge down jackets, the entire crowd was amped and ready to rage. We got a late start to the first day and walked-in mid set with the crowd in full force already with Minnesota throwing down. With constant top-notch releases from Minnesota all year I was really excited to see him live and he didn’t disappoint. Next up was the first night headliner, Wiz Khalifa. I was following Wiz’s Tweet’s and Instagram’s and he was not ready for the cold but he didn’t let it hold him back. The crowd exploded as he opened with Black and Yellow and he kept the energy the entire time playing all his big hits. The stage set-up was incredible and watching Wiz live surrounded by massive pine trees and snow coming down was surreal. Wiz ended earlier than the schedule indicated and we rushed to the shuttles because we had to make it back for the after party. The after party that night was what I was most excited for because Seven Lions was the headliner. Kill Paris was slotted to play before Seven Lions but unfortunatly he got stuck in Indiana and wasn’t able to make it. The set up in the hotel was one of the most awkward setups I’ve ever seen, it felt like high school prom gone EDM but that wasn’t going to hold us back. Seven Lions was without a doubt the best performance of the night and he will soon be at all major festivals. One of my favorite songs ever is his Florence and the Machine – Cosmic Love Remix and he dropped a great version of it and I guarantee anyone who didn’t know who he was before the show was googling him immediately after. He exceeded my expectations and make sure to add him to your “MUST SEE” list.

A couple weeks back I had the opportunity to meet Logic, interview him, and see him perform as the headliner at a benefit concert for the Dance For Paralysis foundation. Above and beyond that, Logic brought the new age of hip-hop into one of the most storied restaurant franchises, The Hard Rock Cafe, and left his heart on the stage. Prior to the show, I sat down with Logic and asked him anything and everything from growing up, to passion for Frank Sinatra, to Kevin Durant’s tweets, to his favorite color. For all those responses and more, watch the video above. What you may or may not extract from the interview is Logic’s sincerity, passion, love, devotion, appreciation and respect for all, molded into the articulate and professional young man and artist he has become. Truly the most personable and enjoyable interview I have ever conducted.
Dubstep, Electro, Hip-Hop, House | Seven Grams of Snow
Posted by Mach on January 25, 2012
With winter now at full force for those of us that live in the snow fall areas, it only felt right to assemble a shredding playlist for the skiers, snowboarders, and you hard core sledders…how ever many of you still exist. Gurbeats, Dro (longtime fan of FNT, and creator of the art above), and myself threw these tracks together to create this sweet playlist. Seven Grams of Snow provides chill runs for those that want them, while other tracks make you feel like you have the same tiger blood as the great Sheen. The final out come of the list is a great blend of hip-hop, electro, house, and dubstep. Even snuck in a few oldies everyone will have fun listening to again, and also a few tracks I’m sure you haven’t heard. There is no set order to this playlist, shuffle it up anyway you want to suit your snow surfing style. The playlist is spilt up into 3 parts for downloading because there is a total of 64 tracks. Why 64 tracks you ask? Simple, no one wants to listen to the same 2 hours of music all day on the slopes.
