The game features over 100 tracks — with an additional list of songs on the VIP edition — you can mix together and layer vocals and instrumentals to create your own DJ set. For some people, this will result in some really excellent and very cool mixes that actually sound good. For others, this is an opportunity to mash up songs that make absolutely no sense together but are very, very funny.

The magic of Fuser is the ability to have fun with these tracks and make ridiculous remixes. One particular track on the set list that’s available to everyone is Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up,” which means, yes, Rick Rolling is back and this time comes with a new beat.

He wasn’t alone in recognizing the power of Fuser to make truly absurd mixes featuring “Never Gonna Give You Up,” and you can expect plenty of these videos (and others) to find their way to your social media timelines in the coming days and weeks.
Currently loving Fuser because it let's me do dumb stuff like this… pic.twitter.com/jVw43tfTLT

I think the funniest part of all of this is seeing awful Rick Astley and Smashmouth mixes has, arguably, made the game much more enticing to some people — including me — who now recognize the sheer power of this game and the ability to do some remarkably ridiculous stuff with it.

Mamas Gun and Brian Jackson shines light on the truth on latest release “DIG!”
Mamas Gun makes a strong comeback with their new single “DIG!.” The track sounds more like a strong statement of intent than just a release. The UK band is known for its smooth blend of blue-eyed soul and traditional black music. They show once again that they can make music that sounds both thoughtful and very new, while still being real, emotional, and sophisticated.
“DIG!” was recorded directly onto analogue tape, and every note has warmth, grit, and soul. The production choice gives the music a rich, natural sound that complements the band’s unique groove. It is a piece of music that makes people slow down, really listen, and experience it rather than hear it.
Adding famous collaborator Brian Jackson, whose vocals, keyboard, and flute give the song a timeless elegance, adds even more depth and magic. Jackson is known for working with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Gil Scott-Heron, Roy Ayers, and Earth, Wind & Fire. His addition makes the song something truly special. His reunion with Andy Platts, the lead singer of Mamas Gun, almost twenty years after they first worked together creatively in New York, gives “DIG!” a very personal touch that can be felt throughout. “DIG!” sets a strong mood based on connection, art, and essence. Mamas Gun not only goes back to their roots but also makes them stronger. This song is heartfelt, timeless, and completely captivating.

Bromsen crafts a suspension between attachment and release in new single “Concendrain”
Bromsen’s latest release, “Concendrain,” is very immersive and lives in the space between control and disintegration. The song smoothly shifts from focused to tired, from connected to free, and captures a complex emotional balance that is both personal and universal.
“Concendrain” starts slowly and carefully, the structure has layers that change over time, so each part can come out on its own without any stress or hurry. As time goes on, electronic textures begin to emerge, giving the music a mood that eventually turns into rock-infused energy. These different sounds don’t clash, they work together to create a track that is alive, fluid, and always changing.
The guitar, voice, and rhythm should all work together on the song. These parts don’t compete for attention; instead, they work together to make a smooth flow that pulls the listener into the song’s emotional depth. The arrangement features vocals that complement complex guitar lines and a steady beat that keeps everything in line.
“Concendrain” is really interesting because it has two sides. The track is about the fight in your head between giving up and pushing through, and between staying focused and giving in to tiredness. Bromsen and Reatsch work together to make something that looks natural and well-made. “Concendrain” doesn’t try to be cool or follow trends. Instead, it gives you a slow experience that you should really pay attention to. “Concendrain” is a powerful and thought-provoking work that sticks with you long after the last note has faded away. It stands out because its structure changes, its atmosphere is rich, and its emotions are strong.
