Mix, Mixtapes, Review | 10 Mixes From 2013 That Made My Jaw Drop
Posted by J-Tiffy on December 23, 2013
One cool thing that happened to me this year was that I got hired on to write for FNT. I have followed this website for years and it has led me to mountains of great music. I’m glad that I now have the opportunity to share music with the website. This year I became a bigger fan of mixes; I love to see what artists can do when given an extended period of time within which they can be creative. Below is the list of 10 mixes that I liked the most from this past year, with some other mixes mentioned at the end that didn’t make this list based on who knows what. The list is more or less ranked in order, with mix #1 definitely being my favourite. If you don’t want to listen to all of the mixes, and don’t care what I have to say about them, then skip ahead and at least listen to the number 1 mix – Space Jams by The M Machine (hence the above, cool picture of those guys). Thanks for supporting the website by visiting it, thanks for supporting artists and their music, and thanks for reading our posts.
Events | Electric Adventure Announces Full Lineup, Tickets Still on Sale
Posted by Middy on July 19, 2013
Electric Adventure painfully announced the lineup one name at a time, culminating in Seven Lions being the final artist added to a bass heavy roster fit for an American festival. The recently expanded, two-day festival being held at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson New Jersey, boasts names like Dillon Francis, GTA, Seven Lions, Doctor P, Figure, Zeds Dead and a live show from Destroid. You can see the full lineup on the poster above. One of the finer things about the lineup is that it has scheduled breaks in between for you to go enjoy the rides with DJs like DJ Bl3nd taking over the decks. With all of this heavy bass music coming to Six Flags, I can’t wait to see all of the terrified looks on parents faces when they first see all of these kids running around in neon, yolo trucker hats and other obscene apparel that covers almost no skin, and then hear the screeching dubstep come blaring out of the Electric Adventure area. Should be a blast and a clash of cultures. The park will also be open late for people who bought Electric Adventure tickets, so you will have an extra 2 hours, until midnight, to ride roller coasters before slinking on home. Tickets are still on sale so grab them before they are gone.
Dubstep | Zeds Dead – By Your Side
Posted by Mach on June 6, 2013
Free tracks from Zeds Dead are always a great thing, especially when you can tell they have been testing out a few new bass synths. In a way I was sad that they didn’t get Omar Linx to drop at least one dope verse halfway through this. They have worked together so many times I just feel like when I hear Zeds Dead’s new tunes, Omar Linx will be featured. He’s not, but that hasn’t kept me from taking this sick track for a test drive. This is just another great melodic dubstep track from the duo.

Dubstep, Hip-Hop | DOSVEC – We Still In This Bitch
Posted by BIGLIFE on May 29, 2013
DOSVEC once again makes B.O.B. original track sound Much Much Better! He has done it with Beast Break and Mind Lies and now with “We Still In This Bitch” This song should become a staple at every RAGER and will surely makes waves for a long time to come.
Dubstep | Marina and the Diamonds – Lies (Zeds Dead Remix)
Posted by Mach on January 8, 2013
A free remix from Zeds Dead is always a good thing. It is always the stuff they just give away that I feel is their best work. It just seems to have turned out that way. Marina and the Diamonds sounds extremely similar to Katy Perry’s voice, but in this case its not a bad thing. Zeds Dead did a killer job with this remix.

DJ-Set | Weekend Mixes 10/25/12
Posted by Middy on October 25, 2012
It is Thursday, so it is essentially the weekend. Unless you are this guy, you are going to need mixes to get the weekend started. We start things off with our friends at The Drop with this week’s episode that features an interview with Robbie Rivera and a funky mix from Finnish sensation Lenno, who will be at Santos Party House next weekend, Saturday, November 3rd. Next up we have Tristan Garner’s guest mix on Arty’s relatively new show “2gether We Are”. It features a bunch of the tracks from his recently released “Digital Rocker EP” and showcases his superb bootlegging ability. We then follow with Matisse & Sadko’s October mix that features unreleased tracks from Fedde le Grand, themselves, Hard Rock Sofa and Swanky Tunes, Steve Angello and more. Lastly we give you a very recently posted Halloween mix from Zeds Dead that is a bit heavier than the previous three to provide a well rounded group of mixes. Tracklists after the jump.
Dubstep, Exclusive | Bon Iver – Woods (Zeds Dead Remix)
Posted by Middy on October 1, 2012
Toronto duo, DC & Hooks, better known as Zeds Dead have come through with this smooth dubstep remix of Bon Iver’s 2008 track “Woods”. Since the original did not have an instrumental component and just used various vocals to create the harmony of the song, Zed’s Dead had a lot of freedom and room for creativity as to what they wanted to do. They kept the original relaxed feel of the track, going for a more minimal percussive approach, adding low oscillating bass, distorted synths and ambient keys, all of which allow Bon Iver’s vocals to shine through and stand out.
