Mashups, Videos | Throttle – What’s That Sound (Live Mashup)

Posted by on September 16, 2013

Remember Madeon’s “Pop Culture”? Of course you do, that thing went next-level viral. Since that video using Novation Launchpad, there have been many people making their own videos doing similar styled mashups, some good, some bad, but nothing with the gusto of “Pop Culture”. Well that may have changed. This mashup goes through 30 songs in just 3 minutes, largely incorporating dance music tracks, but also a few pop vocal samples. He also adds a few of his own piano breaks as well. “Pop Culture” changed the game in terms of mashups, and this aught to seal the deal. You can grab the free download below. Full tracklist after the jump.

Events | South by Southwest 2013

Posted by on March 9, 2013

Next week, Fresh New Tracks will take on South By Southwest, the self-proclaimed “premier destination for all discovery” that sets the trends of music for the next year to come. SXSW is a film, music, and interactive festival that takes over the city of Austin for 10 outrageous straight days. The music festival is comprised of official and unofficial (usually free) shows, rooftop parties, party boats and buses and no to mention the most interesting collection of people you will ever see.

Allow us to give you a little taste of what went down last year…

Stayed tuned for Sev and Mimada’s Complete What-To-Do and How-To-Do-It guide after the break.

Hip-Hop, Videos | Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – And We Danced (Music Video)

Any avid fan of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis knows this song differs from their normal offerings.  Whether or not their objective here is to skeet over the entire frat rap/party/dance music scene, this is one hell of a song.  Could it be an attempt at a “hit record”?  Maybe.  Could it be a parody/subliminal shot at the “fake rap” scene Macklemore divides himself from?  Maybe.  Could it be that Zoolander Macklemore and Ryan Lewis wanted to show their versatility and have fun making a track like this?  Definitely a possibility.  Whatever the motive, I now know these guys are capable of almost anything.

Hip-Hop | Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – Make That Money

Posted by on September 23, 2011

 Any day Macklemore & Ryan Lewis treat us with new music is a good day.  There’s not really much I can say about this song that will give it justice, so I’m going to ask you please listen to these lyrics and hopefully you’ll recognize the power of their words.

“Make the money, don’t make the money make you, change the game, don’t let the game change you”

Hip-Hop, Videos | Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – Otherside (Original) (Music Video Edit)

Posted by on September 12, 2011

Being a huge fan of the original “Otherside” by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, I decided to take the recently released music video for the remix and to match it up with the original song. The end result turned out amazing. I can’t decide whether I like the remix or the original more but they both definitely deserved the visual treatment.
