Mix, Mixtapes, Review | 10 Mixes From 2013 That Made My Jaw Drop

Posted by 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.

Exclusive | Red Vision Records Steals Tracks, Sells Them On Beatport

Screen Shot 2013-11-20 at 3.11.54 PM
Here at FreshNewTracks, we love chasing down a good story. Red Vision Records in El Paso, Texas is one of the stories you can’t help but share. Earlier today, I was cruising the interwebs and I came across a story from our friends at Your EDM. The title of the sort was “Serial Song Thief ‘Havirest’ Angers KOAN sound, Asa, SKisM, and EDM Community” The article was fascinating, so I decided to do a little digging. Well, a lot of digging. This is where it gets fun.

In addition to ASA, Koan Sound, and SKisM, our friend Collin McLoughlin was targeted too. Particularly, his “Chasing Ghosts” single from his extremely popular “Tears Of Tempo” EP. Collin tweeted about the trickery moments ago. I say he should be flattered, but it’s pretty shitty behavior to say the least. I decided to track down these ole’ chaps at Red Vision Records in El Paso, Texas. Here’s what I found…

Dubstep | Luxe Laredo feat Honey LaRochelle – No Man’s Land (R/D + iLL Gates Remix)

Posted by on August 14, 2013

This remix is absolutely fire. R/D and iLL Gates’s remix of No Man’s Land blew my mind. It’s melodic, it’s glitchy, it’s funky and it’s bass filled. My favorite part is the break down at 2:06. The vocals are cut up in a way that I can’t help but bob my head to. Mad props for this remix, R/D and iLL Gates. You can download it for free on their website or purchase it on Beatport, iTunes, and Amazon.

Videos | Kanye West – Black Skinhead (Official Video)

Posted by on July 22, 2013

CA-YEEZUS

In typical Kanye form, Yeezus’s latest video was released without much warning, about an hour after a tweet regarding the video surfaced. After receiving a leak of the video a couple weeks ago, after a few heads rolled in camp Kanye, the REAL, official video has been released. Obviously the video isn’t able to be embedded, because it’s Kanye, so I will direct you over here to his website to watch it. The video is interesting, artistically cool but not something aesthetically pleasing to my taste. What we expected from the first visuals off critically acclaimed and critically hated album, Yeezus.
