Hip-Hop | Logic – Now (Prod. By 6ix, Arthur McArthur & Swiff D)
Posted by Grubeats on April 8, 2014
Those who have been following Logic from the start know him, his outlook on music, and his demeanor. Confidence > Cockiness. A few noteworthy lines from previous songs…
“Never cocky I’m just confident the flow is prominent” – via “Ask ‘Em”
“You gotta realize, a lot of the time when I talk
And I’m talking extremely cocky, I’m not talking
About myself, I’m talking about the work.” – via “Numbers”
Since his last mixtape, Welcome to Forever, Young Sinatra has further developed his voice into a powerful, charismatic sound. With this, some fans may argue his music has changed. Changed? No. Developed? Yes. His versatility continues to improve and his fan base continues to grow. With that comes clingers (#RAPGAMEBARNACLES). Everyone and their mother wants a piece of the pie. Once-haters are suddenly starving for a taste. Logic’s newest release, “Now” addresses those naysayers and urchins with heavy production and a balance of swift and machine gun raps. This marks the first single off his newly announced Free EP, While You Wait, which will serve as an appetizer to his full length Def Jam debut.
Gotta give it to 6ix, Arthur McArthur, & Swiff D on this one. This production KICKS.
One more thing – Logic will be touring with Krewella & Radical Something in part of the Verge Campus tour starting this week AND he will also be crossing the country with labelmate QuESt and ©. Castro this summer.

Videos | Calvin Harris – Summer
Posted by VMan on April 7, 2014
The video for Calvin Harris’ hit record “Summer” is finally here and it’s everything you’d expect from a Calvin Harris music video. I personally love this tune, and I look forward to hearing it being played everywhere this Summer. What are your thoughts? You guys like this new Calvin Harris?
Electronic | Saturday, Monday – The Ocean (Dirge x Howl Remix)
Posted by Mel on April 5, 2014
Dirge and Howl are, apparently, two producers from Australia. There is no information anywhere about these guys other than that. However, I can share that in my short yet magical correspondence with Howl, he is almost always super turnt. He is also 18 and managing to create awesome stuff. There are only two songs on his Soundcloud and they are both below because they are both great. This is somebody you should keep an eye on because I can see him getting big fast.

Electro, Trap | DJ Smiles – Twerk Trap 2
Posted by admin on April 3, 2014
A few months back Fresh New Tracks brought you the exclusive premiere of DJ Smile’s “Twerk Trap” series. Lucky enough for you, it’s time for part two! Filled with fifty-two minutes of twerk-worthy music, this compilation is guaranteed to have you on your feet (and, possibly even your hands).
DJ Smiles just got off the road, after touring with Aer for the past several months, so with any luck we’ll be getting a more regular output of music. Hit play on the mix below, and be sure to check out DJ Smiles on SoundCloud for the rest of his music. Lastly, since there’s no rest for the wicked, Smiles will be hitting the road with Aer and Ground Up yet again very soon, so be sure to check him out in your city!

The Blancos from Brooklyn know how to make music, and that’s a fact, peep their record “Love’s Impossible,” some indie soul rock music to get you through this grey humid April afternoon. Obviously under the radar, my friend Scott hit me with 3 of their records, notably the one featured here, but make sure you check out “Lemon Garden,” and “Losing Sleep” both quality productions which explore the sample game, and capture that refreshing sound. I was also told that they have exciting news coming up, so keep an ear out for that. This is a must listen, and we’re still waiting on that download!
Hip-Hop | Chance The Rapper & The Social Experiment – Home Studio (Back Up In This B***H)
Posted by dshaq on March 26, 2014
I think it’s funny when people start listening to Chance and are all like “YOO have you heard this Chance the Rapper guy?! He’s so dope like all of his music is tight”. Chance’s reach has hit full effect and he is one of the hottest MC’s on the rise and I couldn’t be any happier for him. After Acid Rap and 10Day, it’s very refreshing to hear new sounds from Chance to hold us over until the next anticipated project. Home studio features a different type of Chano flow, that similar to Vic’s “Feel That”, and if it’s any indication on where his sound might be going then it can only go up from here. Holler at the song below & SAVEMONEY.

Posted by BIGLIFE on March 24, 2014
Hip hop has been struggling lately with new talent, but watch out, Toronto native Sean Leon is making a statement for 2014.
After releasing his project, “narcissus, THE DROWNING OF EGO”, he plans on releasing a slew of new music in 2014 and taking the industry by storm. I honestly feel bad for downloading this for free, it is that good.
Make sure you DL the project here and look out for Sean Leon:
