Progressive House | Doctor P feat. Eva Simons – Bulletproof (Vicetone Remix)
Posted by Middy on January 24, 2013
The guys do it again. Ruben & Victor in honor of Ruben’s birthday a few days back have released their remix of Doctor P’s single with Eva Simons “Bulletproof” off of his 4 track EP out in September “Animal Vegetable Mineral Part 1”. Vicetone flips Doctor P’s 140 bpms and at times hard on the hearing synth leads for a crisp 4 on the 4 floor bass line and big room melodies that have made their rise to prominence possible. With yet another outstanding, clean production under their belt, it will be great to see them possibly expand into a larger multi-track release format and see what they have in store for touring in 2013.

Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Preview | Reso – Tangram Remixed EP
Posted by Mach on January 23, 2013
2013 is already turning out to be an awesome year for electronic music in my opinion. Reso has an awesome line up of remixing artists for his upcoming remix EP of his recent EP release “Tangram.” The remix EP features KOAN Sound, Om Unit, Billain, and Doshy. KOAN Sound’s remix is a lot more abstract than I am used to hearing from them. Their remix of “Axion” is a very deep, bassy Drum & Bass track that transitions into a kicked up Midtempo jam. Om Unit has my favorite remix of the whole EP. The way they remixed “Simple Pleasures” creates the emotion that the title is so deserving of. The track is very chill and still with the same deep bass that carries out through all the remixes. Billain made a dirty Neuro-Dubstep remix of “Half Life,” making my ears convulse in the craziest ways. The last remix from Doshy is the only one of the EP that does not have its own clip. Doshy’s remix of “Coronium” is what I would call an abstract take on Trap. Oddly enough the idea works, and Doshy’s remix provides a cool-temperatured finish to the EP. The remix EP is set to release March 11th.

Electro-House | Feed Me – Death By Robot EP
Posted by Middy on January 18, 2013
Feed Me makes his return to deadmau5’s mau5trap imprint with a 3 track EP “Death By Robot” as he prepares to bring the teeth stateside in a little under 2 weeks. The title track stands out on the EP with its intricately layered melody and delicate key work, all aided by a robotic voice. As one of the tracks premiered during his essential mix back in September, “Dialup Days” gives us the glitchy electro and complex bass lines we see in many Feed Me tracks. “Gravel” also gives us that vintage Feed Me sound with its haunting melody and gritty electro. This is not Feed Me’s most upbeat EP to date, but the quality is there across the board. Check out the dates after the jump for the his teeth tour as it gets started on the 29th in DC. Ticket info here.
House, Preview | Kahwe – Driving Me Wild EP
Posted by Mach on January 18, 2013
Wow, this is a pretty big EP for up and coming producer Kahwe. The entire EP is full of deep House goodies, starting with the title track “Driving Me Wild.” The track has a soulful take on the deep and garaged styled House music. The second track “Anything” has that same aspect only with a bit of that 70s and 90s blend of funk. “Anything” is most definitely my favorite of the three, though they are all great sounds. The last track “Yew” is much more laid back than the others, but gives off a warm feeling that you get from having drinks with your friends in a lounge. Kahwe’s new EP “Driving Me Wild” releases February 11th.

A few months ago we first introduced you to Maxxx Flair, a deft new lyricist from New York whose stock has risen dramatically behind a recent pair of earnest, eloquent releases. Tonight he’s back with the first single from his new EP, Wake Up, featuring Sunny Jones of the production duo 2 Thumbs Up, who provided the captivating instrumental. Maxxx’s latest work has been decidedly more candid and complex, and thus we can only expect to continue hearing impactful, creative music from this exciting new emcee.

Electro-House, Exclusive, Featured | Simon Shout – SLASH (FNT Exclusive)
Posted by Middy on January 11, 2013
A little quiet over the past few months, German producer / Dj Simon Shout has been busy working in the lab on an EP of original tracks and has allowed us to exclusively unveil the first of his recent works to the public. As a follow up to his previous single we had here “Optimus“, Simon Shout provides us with a peak time electro house track with jarring drop of a thumping bass line, growling electro chords and a big room interlude with layers drawing on sounds from Wolfgang Gartner and other electro heavyweights. We are excited to see what he has in store with his new EP and the rest of 2013 because if “Slash” is any indication, we should be in for a treat.
