Electronic | Tears For Fears – Everybody Wants To Rule The World (Just A Gent Remix)
Posted by BP on June 11, 2014
I think it’s time I post something really fun. Here is Just A Gent’s bouncy remix of “Everybody Wants To Rule The World” by Tears For Fears. I’m hesitant to put it under dubstep, so I’ll just leave it in electronic and you can decide on the genre for yourselves. Aside from that sweet cover art (wow!), this track is party ready. The melody easily swings through upbeat drops and synth work. This is a track that just makes you want to get up and dance. Just A Gent revamped this 80’s dance tune into a modern masterpiece. You can grab it for free below.

Progressive House | IVY & GOLD – Not Had Enough (Lonczinski Remix)
Posted by Mel on June 4, 2014
I have not been the greatest of supporters for Lonczinski in the past but even I, a dedicated Skrillex fan am able to recognize the quality in his latest track. He remixed Ivy & Gold’s “Not Had Enough” and it is one of his best pieces of work.

Hip-Hop | Sammy Adams – You & Me
Posted by BIGLIFE on May 6, 2014
“Dues yeah I’m paid up / dudes need to wake up.”
Returning to what made him great, Sammy goes in over Disclosure’s mega “You & Me” smash that’s reminiscent of his earliest work. Rapping, “Wizzy back, had a chance I’m yelling give me that, I can feel the summer approaching while you still skinny fat” Sammy floats effortlessly over the track with hungry bars and lyrical wit. Some might stipulate that Sammy Adams is officially back. I’d argue he never left. Sammy Adams. You & Me. Fire flames. Hat tip to the incomparable Val Pensa at RCA.

Oh wow, for once those Facebook sponsored ads did work, and being the type of guy that listens to mostly everything that is presented to me, I read “…love Quilla’s vocals on the original track and I wanted to slow it down and give it a nice chill, tropical vibe” from Thero as he just passed 500 Likes on Facebook so I knew I had to press play. Remixing George Acosta’s “We All Get Lost Sometimes,” he adds the much needed sunlight the original needed blessing you on this glorious Sunday morning. This is a must listen and a must download!

Albums, Deep House | ZHU – Nightday EP
Posted by mimada on April 22, 2014
Between 4/20, Coachella, and any other holiday weekend festivities, you might have missed the highly anticipated release of the mysterious producer, Zhu’s freshman EP. This EP is ultra-satisfying not only for its content, but also because it marks the end of our suspense in seeing what this Zhu guy is all about. However, as far as who this Zhu guy actually is, well, we’ll get there.
In case you haven’t been following the steady rise of this artist, let me catch you up to speed. Back in February, music bloggers across the country (including FNT!) received emails from an anonymous source with the attachment later to be identified as Zhu’s first single, “Moves Like Ms. Jackson.” Following that, another even more addicting, and this time original track, “Superfriends” took the internet by storm. But it wasn’t long before fans made use of their Internet skills and uncovered the artist as Los Angeles based Stephen Zhu of No Ego Records. What was even more remarkable then the fine detective work provided by Joel McRae via Do Androids Dance was the evidence that Zhu had planted the seed for this EP and all its branding quite some time ago. And still, leading up to the release and even today, there remains an air of intrigue as to who the man behind the smoke is.
As for the music, it without a doubt lives up to the hype. Zhu has really established his own distinct sound: dark, seductive, bass heavy and overall sexy. The tracks released prior to the EP, like “Faded” and “Paradise Awaits” are among some of the more stand out ones, while “Stay Close” and “The One” offer a more subdued, deep house // UK garage feel.
Now that we can finally enjoy this artist’s work as a whole, I’m dying to know what his next move is. No doubt it’s been carefully calculated so he’ll leaving us hanging by a thread until the time is right. Until then, stream “Nightday” in full via Zhu’s website here or cop it from iTunes and test it out by driving fast on empty freeways late at night with a Russian model in your passenger seat and your hand on her thigh. Or something devious like that.
