Now seeing a release through Ram Records is a remix of the track by none other than fellow duo GLXY. Currently signed to Shogun Audio, GLXY has a knack for crafting subliming liquid drum and bass cuts, drenched in soul. They deliver on all fronts with this remix – and we’re stoked to premiere it.

With Julia Mark’s tones drifting across its velvety drum patterns and sleek edits, ‘Before The Dawn’ dazzles as a standalone listen. If you’re looking for the best way to ease into a new week, look no further.

Hit play on ‘Before The Dawn’ now.

The post PREMIERE: GLXY Shine With Magnetude Remix On Ram Records appeared first on FUXWITHIT.

Released nearly 4 years ago at a time when the trap genre was still in its beginnings, ‘Gemini’ provided a beacon of hope that a more melodic side of the genre can just as easily coexist with the emphasis on production that gives the genre its individuality. A song that has received such overwhelming recognition, an opportunity for a fresh face to lace modern potency presents an invigorating future for a track the community has grown to love wholeheartedly.

The slightest production intricacies and light percussion present exquisite enrichment to the nostalgic introduction to the track. As the melody reaches its second loop, pulsating energy craftily builds into an electrifying riser, which brings the track to a peak, launching into a cascade of obscure echoing synths and the tantalizing angelic harmony courtesy of George Maple.

Expertly implementing the most crucial features of the original, while providing an unmistakable dark, ominous energy through his own brilliance, CALIBR breathes new life into a What So Not classic.

K Dot links up with Future for the remix of (probably) the year! Coming into the track on the second verse, Kendrick raps circles on the Metro Boomin beat. Though this is a big time club banger, Kung Fu Kenny isn’t afraid to get real and drop knowledge. Peep below.

Eliminate Regional Restrictions

One of the greatest things about the rise of the internet is the massive increase in connectivity and the breakdown of international borders. SoundCloud took this to the next level for music. Whether you’re in the heart of the industry in LA, on the coast in Australia or a small village in Singapore, if you had an internet connection and some skills you could get your music out to a wealth of fans and like-minded artists. Recently it seems SoundCloud has been taking distribution cues from major cable networks and restricting content to specific countries. I’ve personally seen music from Canadian artists that is not available in Canada! It’s absurd and a sad step backward for a platform that completely redefined streaming. SoundCloud needs to fight the label pressure and make all content available to everyone everywhere.

if I didn't have internet back in 2009-2010 to discover progressive house

I'd still be spearing fish in my singaporean village

Reduced Takedowns

From bootlegs and remixes to DJ mixes. This is the issue that’s lead to many artists and fans to claim that SoundCloud is dead or dying. SoundCloud built itself upon bootlegs, mixes and remixes. Due to label pressure they’ve been taking a hardline stance and deleting the content that made them so popular. To be fair there isn’t an easy solution. Copyright infringement is no joke and major labels wield a ton of power over streaming platforms. If only labels would realize that remixes/bootlegs/mixes only help to promote their artists. Maybe one day.

Get Rid of The 3 Strike Policy

The only thing worse than takedowns is full-scale account deletions. Artists and tastemakers take years building up their following on the platform only to have their account completely stripped away. Look, I get it, if you’re posting copyrighted content you’re technically in the wrong but there’s a huge difference between blatantly re-uploading an artist’s work without their permissions and putting out a remix or DJ mix and having your account deleted as a result. This is especially hard to stomach given the fact that SoundCloud rose to popularity largely as a result of hosting this content for years. SoundCloud has been taking measures to try to figure out this process but in the interim it would ideal if they put this one on hold.

thank u @SoundCloud for deleting our account

Improved Search

Considering the fact that Google often knows what you’re looking for better than you do, we’ve come to expect search to be a seamless and intuitive process. On SoundCloud this is not the case. Whether you’re looking for an artist or a song there’s about a 10% likelihood the results you receive will actually be what you’ve expected. There’s no logic in place to detect common misspellings and results are not tailored based on who you follow or your likes. It’s so bad I’ve actually left SoundCloud to do a Google search for a song on SoundCloud. Step up that algorithm!

Simplified Time Stamps

I don’t know how this has still not yet been addressed, but how many times has this happened to you? You upload a track privately on SoundCloud a few days before the release to save time, send it to your DJ Friends, a few blogs or whatever. When you make it public instead of updating the time stamp to when it was made live (like YouTube) it presents the date it was first uploaded. This means the track is guaranteed to get lost in the sea of reposts and new tracks on yours followers’ home page. To solve this issue, users frequently will re-upload the song right before its release to ensure it gets the proper the time stamp. This is time consuming and unnecessary. It also applies to playlists as well as tracks. SoundCloud should make it so that the date stamped is when the track goes live publicly.

Clean up the Sexbots

The possibility of having horny singles sliding in your DMs sounds pretty enticing right? An instant ego boost assured to have you gassed and leave you wondering, “damn is my music so fire that random strangers want to hook up with me without ever meeting me?” The answer is no. Like most things in life, if it’s too good to true it probably is. Recently SoundCloud has become overrun with Sexbots bursting in your DMs and clogging up the comments section. Comments used to a great place for artists to get feedback, confirm how sick their drops were, or get shit on from haters. These days a scroll through a major track’s comments feels like you accidentally wandered your way into some seedy listings on back pages.

Improved Embed Functionality

As a blogger one of my favourite things about the platform is the easy to embed player. With a built in WordPress code, easy sizing and styling options, the SoundCloud player is by far the best embeddable music solution out. That said, there’s still room for improvement. Adding the embed option to the mobile app would be a great addition for on-the-go music bloggers. I personally do most of my writing on my phone and being able to easily embed the tracks on my device would be extremely helpful. One of the biggest misses around the SoundCloud embed is with the newly released content types. While tracks and playlists are easy to embed, the recently defined content types such as albums, EPs, etc. seem to neglect the functionality all together. Did the developers just simply forget? Do they not do QA checks our user testing before releasing updates? Hopefully they get this sorted as soon as possible.

That’s a wrap for our list. Are there any other changes you’d like to see? Let us know in the comments or on Facebook and Twitter.
