Interview #102 – Altru Apparel x FatKidOnFire

Interview #102 - Altru Apparel x FatKidOnFire

It’s been quite a while since an American fashion brand featured here on FatKidOnFire – too long in my opinion (so long, in fact, that I can’t quite remember which American brand last featured here on FKOF). So when I was contacted by the following brand (who are based out of LA) asking if we could sort something out, I jumped at the chance… [Photo by Describe the Fauna] California’s Altru Apparel are a wonderful looking graphic brand of t-shirts … more

The State of the Music Industry pt. II

Not only is Sunday’s guest post on its way to becoming one of the most popular (if not the most popular) articles ever posted on FatKidOnFire; it also seems to have hit a nerve for a few of you (although celebrated by others) – so much so that I’ve had multiple offers for response posts. The following is the first I had, from producer Arkwright (I’ll be publishing the third and potentially final post on the matter later this week – a … more

The State of the Music Industry

A while ago, I put the word out that I was looking for writers to contribute content to FatKidOnFire (I’m still looking for any of you who have yet to pitch me your ideas). One of the people who got in touch, and expressed an interest in contributing content, was my boy Lawrence (or Stigma for those of you who know his tunes). He went away and then pitched the following article (and it’s very much a departure from the … more

Interview #101 - Infinity Inc. x FatKidOnFire

Things have been going from mad to mental here at FatKidOnFire over the past couple of weeks – hitting 1,500 fans on Facebook, the FKOF Twitter account is just about to hit 1,300 followers and SoundCloud‘s not far off 1,800 followers. And that’s with limited content being pushed out on the site (partly thanks to my pretty mental schedule and otherwise down to my inability to free up some time to sit down and blog). For those of you who … more

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #107 – Dyssomnia

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #107 - Dyssomnia

It’s been quite a while since we’ve had a Dutch artist in the MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire series – the first (and only so far) was TMSV in August 2011. Luckily, we’ve got Dyssomnia to fly the flag for the Netherlands here on FKOF tonight – with one of the biggest and deepest mixes we’ve had in the series for a while… Who is Dyssomnia? I’m a 17 year old producer from the Netherlands who loves dark bass music. I basically love every … more

[Artist Highlight] SKIN E x FatKidOnFire

It’s been a long minute since the last free download happened here on FatKidOnFire – a free download that wasn’t a mix that is. In fact, I think the last free track that was given away was Content’s ‘Sulfur’, back at the end of January. Far too long ago! The Artist Highlight series I’ve started running are seemingly picking up pace at the minute (as are the MakeItgood x FKOF features again which is cool), with tonight’s being the sixth … more

Another quick update…

Another quick update...

After last week’s quick update (I’m still looking for new contributors to FKOF by the way!), I thought it might be a good idea to give you guys another short heads up about what’s going on behind the scenes here at FatKidOnFire. First up, the FKOF website is now part of the Cloudflare community. I discovered these guys last week and was pretty impressed with the wizardry the platform offers (in terms of both increasing the FKOF website’s performance/ load … more

I’ve just sat down and gone through the backlog of features and mixes I’ve got stacked up in the FatKidOnFire inbox and the next 5-10 posts in the MakeItGood x FKOF series are seriously top notch – if you’re not the owner of some serious monitors (/ a decent stereo or headphones), you’ll need to sort that to enjoy what we’ve got in store to its full potential! Tonights feature sees us celebrate another first for the MIG x FKOF … more

MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire #105 - Mutated Mindz

The MakeItGood x FatKidOnFire feature series is going from strength to strength at the moment – having seemingly overtaken the other content you’ll find here on FKOF (for the time being). I’m finalising the #100.2 brand feature (which will hopefully awesome enough to make the wait worthwhile!) at the moment and it looks like it’ll all be ready in the next 10 days or so. So sit tight and please stay patient! Today’s MIG x FKOF feature is with south … more

A quick update...

Some of you might not know this, but back in the day FatKidOnFire was my personal blog as well as being a place to discover new brands/ artists or other awesome bits and pieces that had caught my eye. I figured it was probably a good idea to drop a quick update what’s going on in the backend of FKOF if you will – given things have gone pretty quiet here on the FKOF.com site over the past few weeks… … more
