When it comes to quality dance music then Dutch duo ANOTR is the first name that comes to mind.With "Talk To You" still buzzing among the top new tunes this month the duo reunites with 3DDY for the soulful and euphoric brand new single "Like It". Soft vocals and vocoder effects elevate the lively mood setting a playful and carefree atmosphere.Vocals, keys and percussion blend seamlessly, creating another satisfying and danceable hit for the summer.So when it comes to the final verdict "Like It" is less to say so add "A Lot" to have the full picture.
Lady Gaga's "Mayhem" live version of her latest album is a total bliss for so many reasons.I just wish we had also the studio versions of the songs that are different in so many ways just like this one for "Die With A Smile".The blending of electronic elements influenced from Kavinsky's "Nightcall" is an experience that should be in everyone's collection. "MAYHEM Requiem" with the reimagined versions of her songs immediately separates itself from the typical concert film experience. Her live vocals don’t simply match the studio versions. In many cases, they surpass them in ways that only a handful of vocalists can do.Not to mention how great these new versions sound and "Die With A Smile" is the perfect example.
I never believed that this song from Tame Impala could have so much impact in the music world this year not because it doesn't deserve it but because songs like "Dracula" usually are going under the radar becoming only fans favourite.Being a massive hit Jennie from Blackpink joined for a remix version (actually a duet) with this remix by higly rising Boys Noize exploding to space this week.By far this is the best version of the song making it a must have this summer wherever you are.Inspiring disco beats and a summerish fresh breeze on this global hit is all you need to start this week.
Supposedly Parov Stelar didn't make a last night Eurovision performance his new single would have gone under the radar as many songs do despite the fact they are good enough for a major exposure.This is the power of the media that can transform any song good or bad into a hit.Parov Stelar is considered one of the most important representatives and pioneers of electro swing worldwide.The Austrian released his brand new single "Black Lilies" that maintains the signature elements that have established Parov Stelar on the international scene: a combination of electronic beats with swing, jazz and cinematic influences.Last night's exposure exploded the streaming of the song that finally will affect not only his fans.
For 3-4 days the power of media such the Eurovision song contest will make some of the songs from the final occupying the streaming services therefore the charts and the radios.Hit banger "Bangaranga" from Bulgaria was the unexpected winner of the contest and good luck dancing to it this summer just be careful of getting injured in case you use the choreography.
Now moving on to this week's new releases Gracie Abrams returned with a brand new single with the obligation to prove that last year's success wasn't just a shot in the dark."Hit The Wall" is the first single from her upcoming album "Daughter From Hell" out 17 of July and it's a characteristic indie pop song that often create frenzy on the charts.The song is deeply personal, and the meaning behind the lyrics is very emotional but kinda boring.Don't get me wrong this is a nice song and probably it will need some time to establish a connection with the audience but when and if it does it will be all over the radio.
Tonight is the Eurovision song contest final and everyone has a favourite song to support.The hits comes from Greece and Bulgaria if you want to party this summer.Best songs comes from Italy, Croatia, Albania, France and Israel and for months the bets are saying Finland (which i don't really like).Now there are some outsiders like Australia with Delta's perfect vocal performance but with an ordinary song and Romania's "Choke Me" a powerful and electrifying performance that could really make a surprise performance in the final board.Then you know how juries are voting which are half the result but the voting from fans will ultimately tell the truth.
Now house music veteran MK is releasing another dance anthem a new single called "Zone" featuring Poppy Baskcomb on vocals.Following last year's smash hit "Dior" ft. Chrystal, widely hailed as one of the songs of the summer, MK returns with another irresistible track that captures the spirit of sun-kissed festivals and late-night clubbing.This is a groove-driven production with catchy beats and a nice hook but in the end it didn't impress me much.I prefer "Ferto" for this summer!!!!
Every world champion needs it's soundtrack and Shakira has already done her part not once but now twice. Shakira has officially released "Dai Dai" the anthem for the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026, in collaboration with Nigerian afrobeats star, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy.The previous "Waka Waka" for the 2010 world cup was a quite succesful anthem for Shakira and now "Dai Dai" which means "Let's Go" is another chapter after her big Copa Cabana concert.Blending latin with afrobeats and a big opening show with Madonna and BTS also making an apperance this song will be all over the place the next months either way.This is one of the biggest new releases this week and the charts are awaiting although it's not a strong for the future duration song.
When Martin Garrix begun producing dance music he was considered as the new David Guetta or Avicii depending on what way you see it.But things did not turned out that way Making Garrix a succesful dj and producer in the market but with no hits no matter what.Today one of the most legendary unreleased stories in the Garrix community first premiered during Martin’s sets back in 2015 was released."Repeat It" is a well produced song, radio-ready with Sheeran's aura all over it closing a real circle of waiting for EDM and pop music fans.This one will be on the charts next week but how far will it go in a world where dance music is basically on the dancefloors is yet to see...
It all started with Madonna when it comes to pop music.There is only one pop queen for now and to overcome her achievements in music you must be around for decades like her.Her first official single from "Confessions On The Dancefloor II" gets in the remix era with Peggy Gou and Paul Oakenfold making their efforts for now with some more to come pretty soon.Peggu Gou's energy remix is the one that causes the biggest attention for now making a complete make over on the sound of "I Feel So Free".The South Korean artist did a pretty good job on this one adding electronic elements with a throwback feeling from past decades expanding the connection Madonna has with the dancefloors into infinity.
Svenska pop stars had always a special dna in music that made them have always a special place in the music industry.Well Tove Lo may not have received the chart success she deserves but after 5 albums she is well respected around the world.Time for her sixth album "Estrus" out September 18 with "I M' Your Girl Right?" serving as the first single. To tell you the truth i really liked this new single from play one with all these trance dance pop elements defining what a modern pop song should sound.Hopefully i will not be the only one to hear this is a song that deserves to be a hit and one of the best new releases this week.
Machine Gun Kelly has managed to gain my appreciation in music due to his diversity in his music releases which makes me give me that.As both MGK and Wix Khalifa are gearing up for the second North American leg of MGK's Lost Americana tour, a join single which samples indie electronic duo Sweet Trip a summer-ready party starter called "Girl Next Door" emerged today.When it comes to new songs and picking some for anyone's playlist there are some criteria and this one fills them all no matter what number the charts will say.
Few months back their remix for "Naked" was one of the most succesful dance anthems in Greece that will be played all summer long from djs.But not only this one cause their collaboration produced another summer-radio ready dancefloor that will shake the hot air.Playmen the duo from Greece and uprising dance producer Damiano will meet with you without a doubt this summer in an enviroment where music travels around the globe making "Your Girl Could Never" a good choice in your dance playlist.
The fact that at least two Michael Jackson songs will be once again in the Uk top 10 due to the biopic movie and two songs released some years ago will also appear the same week sounds strange but it's true.Is it because we love oldies? Is it because Tik Tok has a massive power over music?Is it because new songs sound too weak to make you stream or buy them?Is it because streaming destroyed the proven love of buying a song?All that and you ain't see nothing yet cause AI music is here and it's growing fast.
"Groovejet" by Spiller and Sophie Ellis Bextor is a classic dance anthem that will always have a reference in the present with a remix or even with it's original form.This so called "Not Without Friends" is among the top dj choices right now and summer will once again be vibing with this classic!!!
She doesn't need any introduction and if she does then you are seriously young.The creature called Chaka Khan is still around and she is giant.With a brand new single written by Sia and multi platinum producer Creg Kurstin "Chakzilla" is on the loose paying tribute to her favourite sci-fi film.The sound connects to funk era she took part with Gap Band and several more establishing a genre that still thrills while her soul gigantic ego bursts through this going back to the basics era. Her first studio album in seven years is on the way while "I’m Every Woman: The Chaka Khan Musical" an autobiographical stage production starring Alexandra Burke that revisits both her rise with Rufus and the personal struggles she endured behind the scenes is in full promotion.Gha ka chaka cha ka cha ka Khan...
Once more you have landed the place where music is the first and only reason you keep visiting this blog.Keeping an ear in new music is our passion and Sienna Spiro ever since was appeared in our radar keeps growing into a future queen in the music industry."The Devil Wears Prada II" so far with the heavyweight releases by Lady Gaga hasn't produced a high charting hit.But silently and with steady growth this song is gaining more and more attention.This is her first experience in creating music for cinema. This particular song seems to move on a more emotional and thematic level following the Olivia Dean music footprints that is so popular lately especially in the Uk.Through this thematic, "Material Lover" is essentially connected to the core of the film, which explores the world of image, success and surface.This song has a long way to go just wait and see...
