Dubstep, Trap | Hopscotch – Emotion

Posted by on March 12, 2013

Hopscotch - Emotion

“Emotion” is exactly what this new free single from Hopscotch is. It is a melodic blend of purple bass, Trap, and Dubstep, not the usuals we are use to hearing together. With production help from Releece, Hopscotch wrote beauty into this track. Besides how great her voice is, her verses fit perfectly into the “Emotion” that is this tracks instrumental. No date or name set yet, but Hopscotch has announced that she has an EP coming soon.

Dubstep | R Rated #65

First up on R-rated this week is a heavy remix the fans have been waiting for from Getter. After coming through with a great EP release he decided it was time to release this remix of 50 Carrots – Wiz Kid. The track starts off with a chiptune vibe and some Wiz Khalifa vocal samples slowly working its way into Getter’s riddim-esque drop.

Mantis just released a monstrous EP on Play Me Records, and thought why not give away a free VIP while we are at it. So they took one of their older tracks and revamped it to a more heavy hitting beast than it already was. Everyone loves a good free VIP download after an EP release, am I right?

We might have posted this track from Rekoil a while back when he first released, but he decided that the mastering and mixing just wasn’t close to the level he wanted. So he went through and revamped the whole thing also adding a few new things here and there.

Last, but not least is a banger from the one and only, Figure. When have you known Figure to let you down and not come through with a beastly track. This one is a heavy one over some Aesop vocals which add a nice twist to the usual doom styled tracks Figure releases.

Posted by on February 27, 2013

Let’s have a moment of clarity. We entertain more music in a day than our parents heard in a lifetime. Yesterday’s favorites are now 35 pages back and to be forever enveloped in what’s newer. Regardless of quality there’s no question that internet-based music is in excess quantity. It’s safe to say we are some ADHD music lovers, and so yea… it’s about time for H?SHTAG$. Red Bull Music Academy’s web series that chronicles many names in the game who mysteriously appear to have found more room outside the box. This fourth installment features Flying Lotus, Shlohmo, XXYYXX, and more. Check all the earlier genre-splicing episodes after the jump.

Exclusive, Featured, Progressive House, Videos | Mr. Fluff – Fearless Hearts (Music Video) [FNT Premier]

Posted by on February 5, 2013

Malaysian producer, singer / songwriter, Mr Fluff released the uplifting progressive track, “Fearless Hearts” late last year along with the heavily supported Jordy Dazz remix, both of which became staples of Dj sets and podcasts for over a month. We are proud to premier the music video for “Fearless Hearts” that features a scene of two kendo fighters sparring with bamboo swords, providing a reprieve from the repetitive live footage music video we seem to always get. Watch to the end to see who wins. Look for more from the multitalented Malaysian artist in the future as he forges his path as both a singer and a producer.
