Usually most of the dance tracks are tested for several weeks or months before they are released to feel the reaction in the live field.That's exactly what happened to "Everalsting" which instantly became a huge fan favorite so Armin Van Buuren knew he couldn’t gatekeep it for too long. Following their Billboard Dance Charts #1 hit "Set Me Free" Armin and Sacha on vocals reunite for this summer dance banger a track that has already attracted the attention of fans worldwide.With "Everlasting", the duo delivers the defining statement of one of the most exciting partnerships in electronic dance music this week.This one is for keep...
Nope!!! I really tried to connect with the brand new Ariana Grande album but i really couldn't.I found it extremely boring and a rather dark one for her status.From "Eternal Sunshine" to this is a long way but every artist deserves an artistic turn or dark nood.I really couldn't find at least one song to seperate from the others so i ll stick to her brand new single "Petal". The song serves as a personal statement about her artistic journey, reminding us that despite the hardships and intense exposure, music remains her constant point of reference. Combining pop aesthetics with more experimental approaches, personal lyrics and intense emotional charge Grande looks back at her relationship with the public, revealing her desire to continue creating on her own terms.She is free to do it but i m also free to feel that i can't connect...
According to Cardi B her first new single in 2026 belongs everywhere from weddings to funerals with a pit stop at the clubs.Just wear a swim suit like hers and leave it all to "Ah Ha".The song is the kind of aggressive, no-filter energy that’s kept her at the top of the rap game for years.On the track, Cardi takes a political stance that’s become increasingly central to her public persona.She raps about "Black trucks at the club, look like Trump in this b####” and follows it with a direct "f### him".I must admit that this is a catchy song that could lead to a top 10 action after a very long time.So far it’s unclear if "Ah Ha" is the launch of a new era or a one-off release.
Collaborations are always interesting not only because of the frontline but also who's behind it.Swedish House Mafia have released an official studio version of their Lykke Li collaboration "Happiness Is So Sad". The track was produced by Swedish House Mafia alongside PARISI and Fred Again.., and was recorded in Stockholm. Additionally, superstar songwriter Max Martin contributed to the track.And now that you have the whole line up let's pretend that the result worths all these mega stars together.Nice intro that leeds to the main dance idea that doesn't bloom to my ears.Maybe i was expecting more and i didn't get it not that the outcome is not worth listening to.
Is making soul music a smart move for your career. You bet it is cause sooner or later crooning soul will find it's place once again.Keep an eye on Kiraly Viktor a Hungarian-American rapper, singer, and songwriter that has made quite an entrance in my acoustic field with "Sorry Not Sorry".Taken from his recently released album "My Name Is Viktor", this song is not just about the price of fame, but also a shift back to his soulful origins. Dipped in a retro smoothness, it’s the laidback rhythm, mellow horns and his vocal warmth that make this tune sound authentically velvety.Quite impressed by his sound let's just hope this is not a firework cause tracks like this one is very much needed (at least for me).
London-based drum and bass production duo Delta Heavy, consisting of Ben Hall and Simon James,released their brand new single "Set You Free".This is a cover version of the iconic N-Trance classic with this iconic 90s rave piano that marked a whole era. Delta Heavy began playing early bootleg/dubplate versions in their live sets as early as 2023–2024 (notably tested at major festivals like Rampage). After becoming a massive fan favorite during tours, it received an official release yesterday.The production bridges classic '90s nostalgia with cutting-edge 2020s dancefloor power.This is a masterclass in modernizing '90s rave heritage for today's mainstages.The classic vocal hooks keep the melody accessible, while the razor-sharp low end provides the weight needed for modern DJ sets.This one hits really hard making it one of my favourites this week...
Two Swedish musical sisters on the same single can't go unnoticed.Ever since Zara Larsson became a pop icon wherever she appears things are getting musically hot.The Sexistential remix of her song "Talk To Me" now called "Talk To Me, Zara." and the result is magnetically attractive for the ears. Over simple and ethereal synth loops Robyn translates passionate emotion into a cathartic dance melody while Zara provides her finesse for a seductively enchanting hook.This is what pure pop sounds today even though her impact is less to the audience.
The legacy of Prodigy and the power of drum n bass through the most reliable ambassadors on earth Chase & Status is imprinted on their brand new single "Disgruntled".This is a heavy duty breaks spinner, with the duo tapping into that newgen energy making it an instant anthem.The track pairs the iconic London duo with rapper J Hus and grime vocalist IRAH, reuniting a chemistry first sparked on 2023’s barnstorming anthem "Baddadan". J Hus, coming off his own acclaimed year that included a BRIT nomination for his album "Beautiful and Brutal Yard", brings a fluid cadence while IRAH injects the bellicose bars that made "Baddadan" a fixture of drum & bass.
With Shakira daring Sam Fender and Olivia Dean for the Uk number one next Friday denying them the record for the song with the most weeks at number one in the Uk things in music world are pulsating in summer rhythms.Behing music that was genarated by AI tools there is still a real person that uses the prompts but i believe we are not very far from AI charts or some kind of incorporation in the main charts.Imael Angel was credited on the major collaborative release "Movin' To The Sun", alongside French DJ/producer HUGEL and dance music vocalist Ultra Naté making it the biggest song of the summer.Is the fact that he is not using computer programmes but AI tools making him less producer than HUGEL?This is a difficult question to answer but the fact that people are downloading by paying this music is a sign that in the future it won't matter.
There are a couple of songs by Imael Angel out there that are trending more than many other by real artists so i will start today with "I'm Alive" that was pretty much the base or the main idea for "Movin'To The Sun" release.This dance anthem blends uplifting Eurodance rhythms, driving deep house basslines, and bright, optimistic vocal lines with a bilingual twist. The theme centers on vitality, celebration, and positive energy featuring lyrics built around feeling the sun, dancing, and experiencing renewed life.The transition between this one and "Movin' To The Sun" will be more than perfect if you are djing trust me.
You never know if making music just for fun will make it's way to stardome making you a star out of nowhere.Pupsies is a female music artist who began making hyperpop/scenecore for fun in late 2023 at the age of 16.Her real name is Ella Kamgaing and her "Misery" single is a raw, viral lo-fi track that debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 80 and climbed to No. 62.Critical reviews highlight its raw teenage angst, catchy nursery-rhyme melody, and shifting electronic arrangement.In fact it reminds me of early 80s electronic arrangments from artists like Yazoo or Depeche Mode in their very early stuff.It features a simple, repetitive three-note singsong pattern that feels like a dark nursery rhyme that somehow works.This could blow up over the next weeks making a huge impact in music and social media.
People and media are thirsty for artists like this one.Following Bella Kay, Stella Lefty,Sienna Spiro the new and upcoming name right now is Alyssa Grace.At just 19 years old, Alyssa Grace is a singer-songwriter from Torrance, California and over the past five months, she has accumulated more than 4.5 million monthly Spotify listeners with just three songs, including the Billboard Hot 100 breakout "Bloodstream" that will pretty soon become a Uk hit also.Taken from her "Spilling My Guts" Ep this song is a gripping depiction of the internal struggle to overcome emotional trauma that made it explode on TikTok, contributing to Alyssa Grace's running tally of more than 1.5 billion views.Expect this song to be on the top of the charts during Autumn while more songs from her Ep will make her expand her fame till the end of the year.
This collaboration between Prospa and Cloonee prove to be one of the most successful in the Uk and among djs around the world since "Free Your Mind" claimed Beatport's overall top spot within days of its release and a Uk top 10 status this week.Cloonee and Prospa know a thing or two about striking while the iron is hot. The UK tastemakers reconvene for "Good Girl" the first single from Cloonee’s debut album. "Good Girl" comes with a hip-shakin’ house groove and a topline that deals in soulful singularity.The song features vocals from UK singer-songwriter Tristan Henry alongside spoken word from Melynda Randal, layered over a pulsing, bass-heavy production that feels built for peak-time sets rather than radio play.Get into a dance mood with this hottie...
HUGEL is exploding all over the world due to "Moving To The Sun" mania, the biggest dance hit this summer.And since he is currently making his way to the Uk charts (never before done by Hugel) the sky is the limit."Where She Come From" is the second single for "Twenty One Part 2", the next installment of HUGEL’s debut album he put out in June.He continues to push the boundaries of house music by collaborating with Quavo over a hypnotic flow with a percussive groove that pulls on the tech house and Afro house end of HUGEL’s range rather than the Latin house he’s known for.Per me this is not as good as the previous released by HUGEL but hey it's only dance music and the pulse is there...
First with Madonna now with U2, Martin Garrix is declared the dj with the biggest collaborations this year.His relationship with U2 goes back several years. In 2021, Bono and The Edge were featured artists on "We Are The People" the official anthem for UEFA EURO 2020, while later that year Martin Garrix co-produced, mixed, and mastered "Your Song Saved My Life" which was included on the soundtrack for the film "Sing 2".Now i don't know if you will see "Fireflies" by listening to the song but my personal opinion is that this is above the average good for what it is.The song made its world premiere on July 17, as the finale of Martin Garrix's headline set on the festival's main stage in Boom, Belgium. In one of the biggest surprises of the night, The Edge took to the stage to perform the song's signature guitar lines live, while Bono's voice was heard over pre-recorded vocals, giving the audience one of the most talked-about moments of this year's festival.The song moves between pop, rock and dance electronic music and that equals to a big stadium crowd pleaser."Fireflies" is a hit!!!
Did you miss me? Yeah i know shit happens but i m trying my best to keep the blog running as good as it should.Katseye are fit for more traditional pop since "Gabriela" did really well making the girls well known to audiences they didn't have.Theis brand new single "Animal" is an ultra-generic pop following no strong moves in any direction and conforms to familiar structure. Its melodic range is narrow and mostly just vamps along the rhythm.But sometimes this is all radio needs in order to keep a song in a increasing rising playlist.The song is taken from their upcoming third EP "Wild", due out on August 14 and the fact that the song is co-written by Ed Sheeran puts a potential hit stamp on it.
