Exclusive, Featured, Interviews | Rudimental Talk Music Videos, Future Expectations and More [FNT Exclusive]
Posted by Middy on September 11, 2013
Rudimental have taken the world by storm. Their single “Feel The Love” rose to the top of the charts in the UK and became a worldwide phenomenon. They have not stopped there with a host of other chart topping singles like “Not Giving In” and “Waiting All Night”. Their live show is about as energetic and “live” as there is in dance music, bringing what they call “a carnival atmosphere” to every festival and city they visit. The foursome have come a long way with their album “Home”, showing their strong UK dance influences, while keeping it soulful and unique on every track.
We had the chance to chat with them after their show with Emili Sandé two weeks ago in Central Park and talk about their incredible music videos, trying to build on their success and what they have coming up, including tracks with The Game and Ed Shereen. Click past the jump for the full interview, but before you do, watch their video for “Right Here”, it is epic. You can grab their now Platinum selling album “Home” on iTunes here. Big congrats to the guys for that!

Electro-House | Audrio – Dreaming Wide Awake
Posted by Middy on September 6, 2013
Our flyer guy to watch this year, Audrio, has sparingly had releases this year, mostly as remixes for other tracks on Avicii’s LE7ELS label. He is now given the floor to showcase his ability on the original front, releasing one of his tracks that when you go to his soundcloud, is titled “We’re Still Here”. The track has his acid-electro fusion with some well placed female vocals that give it a soft touch. We are still waiting for “Humans”….still waiting.

Progressive House | Hello Beddo – Exit at Yemassee
Posted by Spice on August 22, 2013
Fans of MitiS, take note: we’ve got a great free download for you this evening from young producer Hello Beddo. “Exit at Yemassee” has a floaty, chilled-out vibe, but picks up the energy with the introduction of some anthemic synths at the drop. We are loving the piano bridge and the way the choppy vocals play against the theme. In short? This track is a melodic gem. Check out Hello Beddo’s Soundcloud for more tunes.

Drum & Bass | I Am Legion Ft. Strange U – Dust Descends
Posted by Mach on August 18, 2013
Noisia and Foreign Beggars strike gold, previewing another track from their collaboration group, I Am Legion. This isn’t your typical Drum & Bass tune. If deep Drum & Bass was an actual subgenre, this would be the defining track. We are just weeks away from these collaborator big album release on September 2nd. Bass music is about to have an entirely different face.
Electro-House | Hardwell & W&W – Jumper
Posted by Middy on August 5, 2013
Will the exception of “Never Say Goodbye“, we are seeing a shift in Hardwell’s taste from a more melodic sound from years past, to something more built to the mainstages he is being billed to play. It makes sense he would sign music that would work for that type of audience, since his label is the music he wants to play. He has one of the strongest and loyalest fan bases in dance music and they will go anywhere with him, even if he decides to start making generic festival-styled house.
This collaboration between Hardwell & the unstoppable Dutch duo W&W, has been in the works for a long time and been one of the most requested IDs from both Hardwell & W&W’s sets for many months. “Jumper” relies on potent grinding saws, a thumping kick and big room interludes. With the “1,2,3, JUMP!” vocal already built in, there is no need to use some other similar vocal to implore the crowd to do what they probably were going to do anyway. It is nice to remind them that it is their job to jump though.
