Dubstep | R Rated #64
Posted by Mach on March 1, 2013
Decided to save this weeks R Rated, and for good reason. Sick, nasty tunes have been dropping like flies. For Sev and I to keep up has been an adventure, but I hope everyone enjoys the fruits of our labor. To kick off R this week is actually a Trap tune, one of the heaviest Trap tracks that Sev & I have ever heard. Kai Wachi & Squnto must have been craving some twerkable filth because this track is insane! I am still on the fence about Trap, but if you are going to have it, this track is a must have.

Au5 & I.Y.F.F.E (In Your Face F*ck Everything) have been bass predators as of late. The two have been feature on some the most insane Dubstep tracks. This remix they jumped on in with Auratic and Lafunkt is a behemoth, I can slowly sense myself going deaf every time I press play.
Don’t let these first tracks fool you, this is one of our biggest R Rated posts to date.
Dubstep, Electro, House | The Two Friends – You (Me) EP & Remixes
Posted by Mach on February 26, 2013
The Two Friends’ EP, “You (Me) EP” has been out for a little less than a month now. Since its release, the EP has charted in Beatport’s Progressive House section at #4. Today they have dropped their hefty remix EP containing remixes from a long list of great up and coming producers, providing a large array of styles tried out on the originals. Seeing how their are so many remixes to pick from, I have to narrow down my top 5 not including the originals. Moiez created a beautiful House remix, I love how the vocal were used and the melody is mesmerizing. The Slap The Bag & Mapp remix uses a lot of classic House synths, once the drop comes in the track is a journey of wonderful sounds.
PrototypeRaptor’s remix might be my favorite of all the remixes. I love the funky Electro vibes that he has going throughout this track, it was something I was just not prepared to hear. Of course Gazzo had to create an equally incredible remix. He always places the vocals perfectly over the instrumentals he creates, it’s like Gazzo has a sixth or maybe even a seventh sense. His remix is perfect raging material. Picking a fifth track is not easy, every remix on this EP is good. It came down to the roll of a die, literally, I had to take it out of my Monopoly game. The winner is Clark Kent’s crazy Dubstep remix. Ever since his remix of “Skyfall,” I have been sold on his skills as a producer. My top 5 in no way reflects how great this remix EP actually is. I highly recommend giving each remix a listen, they will not disappoint.

Dubstep, Featured | The XX – Night Time (Kicks N Licks Remix)
Posted by Mach on February 26, 2013
Holy cat’s pajamas…. this remix is a mind blow. On my first listen still and the flood of emotion from the drop is still flowing through me. Kicks N Licks just made the list of artists to watch out for. This remix is just too amazing for words right now.

Preview, Progressive House | Vicetone Ft. Collin McLoughlin – Heartbeat
Posted by Mach on February 25, 2013
FNT’s favorite vocalist teams up with one of the top up and coming House producers to bring us one unbelievably beautiful Progressive House original. Monstercat has been on a roll with releases this year. Vicetone and Collin don’t wait long on this track to collide, sending emotion throughout your body and mind. You can tell that Collin has been tuning his voice into something well worth hearing daily on the radio. I don’t think the two could have asked for a better collaboration. “Heartbeat” releases in just a few days on March 1st.
Dubstep, Preview | Alvin Risk – SKYCLAD
Posted by Mach on February 25, 2013
It is about time Alvin Risk had a good release. I am so sick of hearing sick new tracks in his live sets and then when he makes a release it’s one of the worst things I have ever heard. Sadly the official preview leaves out the most important part of the track that helps a person decide if they like it or not, the drop. Don’t be sad for long because I happened to find a little clip ripped from a mix that plays out what we want to hear. It is because of this that I have finally come to the conclusion that Alvin Risk still has it, he just needs to start making more releases to prove it. “Skyclad” releases March 5th on OWSLA.

Chill, Dubstep | River Styx – Evolve
Posted by Mach on February 25, 2013
This is one of the best Garage tracks I have heard in a while. Fun fact, River Styx is the other alias of filthy Dubstep producer, Poseidon. This track is very laid back, but the melody is something else entirely. The kicks and snare give off a Drum & Bass feel but it is the occasional blips that really add character to this great listen. After a long day at work on this Monday, River Styx provides the best way to transition to the end of your day.

Dubstep, Preview | Teknian – Behemoth (DarkElixir Remix)
Posted by Mach on February 23, 2013
I never expected to hear a good remix of Teknian’s epic new tune “Behemoth.” DarkElixir collided worlds with Teknian’s original, leaving behind a wasteland ruled by heavy bass. Seeing as this is only one drop, one can not even coherently imagine what the other may sound like, but I have a feeling it’s just as mind blowing. Adding this one to the ‘must have’ list.
