Posted by on March 9, 2012

South by Southwest (SXSW) in Austin, Texas is hands down one of the most prestigious musical festivals in the country. Unlike many festivals, SXSW encompasses almost all genres of music, so that nobodies musical taste buds go unsatisfied. If you are interested in all performances that are going to be happening during SXSW you can find them HERE.

If you are looking to party with FNT (and you would be silly not to) during SXSW, we will be crashing two insane events this year. The first EPIC is on Thursday March 15th and features sets from Andy C, Flux Pavillion, Dirtyphonics, Shiftee, Mistajam, and thats just the the ones I can count with one hand. The second show is going to be on Saturday March 17th featuring the Dieselboy, Bare, Terravita, J.Rabbit and much much more. Both of these showcases will easily have your ears thanking you for days, so if you want to party with FNT, you know where to find us. Be sure to RSVP to both events on Facebook in the links provided below. Location, set times, and event info can also be found on these pages.

Videos | Exclusive: Jay Fresh- The Motto Freestyle

Posted by on February 6, 2012


“Blowing on that doja/still losing my composure/and I’m still gettin’ wiser as these n*ggas gettin’ older.”

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. Living that maxim, Jay Fresh linked up with Taylin Draper Media to put his own spin on Drake’s famed “Motto” single. With SXSW quickly approaching, Conception Crafters and Jay Fresh have been hard at work with SuperVison, DVS, and Jus-Stone (just to name a select few), aiming to release another project before the masses converge on Austin. In addition to his own project, the rising internet sensation will also be featured on Gramatik’s forthcoming release as well. Talk about Y.O.L.O. It’s only a matter of time until I’ll be asking Jay for a photo, but you already know doe.  Be sure to follow Jay on his journey via Twitter and Facebook. *Insert conspicuous delta symbol here*

Electro | Le Castle Vania, Dillon Francis & Diplo, Fabian | ELECTRO BANGERS

Posted by on March 18, 2011

Atlanta based Dylan Elland, of Le Castle Vania, continuously drops impressive tracks. As he blends intense, grinding disco punk with electronic beats and synth leads, his remixes brilliantly transform original tracks.

Two days ago, Dylan dropped the audio freebie which has been posted below. Dylan chose to remix the two-year-old D.I.M club banger, “Is You,” after re-listening to the track. Dylan not only chose to drop the track because he so strongly believes in releasing creative, free music–but also in preparation for his SXSW performances. Even if you can’t make it to SXSW, Dylan still wants you to rage, wherever you may be, by listening to this banger.

Dillon Francis, of the Mad Decent family, recently released his head-splitting EP “Westside.” As one of the godfathers of Moombahton, Francis absolutely kills it. Dave Nada, Maluca, DJ Ammo, and Munchi are just some of the artists Francis teamed up with on “Westside.” The track posted below, entitled “Que, Que” is Francis’s fire for the EP. With an artist like Diplo, you can’t go wrong…

This Fabian remix is reallll chill. It’s the perfect sort of electro for day-drinking while Spring Break’ing it.

Hip-Hop | XV, Wiz Khalifa, The Dean’s List Remix | HIP-HOP

Posted by on March 9, 2011


A few days ago, I received a Facebook message which contained the photo posted above. The caption read: “Imitating images of SweetE on a beach in Jamica.” This kid clearly has his mind right…thinking of SweetE while simultaneously repping Fresh New Tracks in paradise (#winning).

Lupe Fiasco has attracted plenty of attention lately with “Lasers.” He’s spoken out against his label, Atlantic Records, in many interviews. In an attempt to quell Lupe’s artistic creativity, Atlantic instructed him to, “Not rap too deep.” “I am a hostage,” Lupe noted in an interview with the Chicago-Sun Times. “I gave them [Atlantic Records] what they wanted. If I didn’t, at the end of the day the album wasn’t coming out.”

Lupe has received wide support for remaining vocal about such frustrations. XV has shown his own support for Lupe’s “Lasers” by releasing a freestyle track in which he goes hard over Lupe’s “Words I Never Said” instrumental. XV will open for Wiz Khalifa, Lupe Fiasco and Cee Lo Green at SXSW on March 17th.

“Flesh” is a new track off Neako’s “Loudpack 2” mixtape. Wiz is featured on the chorus, as well as a verse.

Kid Ink has jumped on a remix of “Dear Professor,” a popular track off The Dean’s List recently released mixtape, “The Drive-In.” If you have yet to download it, head to our post here.

BONUS SPRING BREAK TRACK:

Spring Break is just around the corner. If you’re headed to Panama, or need another cheesy track to go along with your daily dose of binge drinking, download the track below. With lyrics like: “If you’re gunna’ black out, drink what’s in your glass now, do it till’ you pass out–live it up in Panama,” you know it’s a Spring Break anthem.
