For this week, I’m going to recommend mostly Electro and Future House tracks. There are some newer songs that are awesome, but there are also some older tracks that I am re-discovering and absolutely loving. Here are my recommendations for the first week of May:
1. NLW & Blinders – Hydra
a. Aggressive electro house, this track is an absolute banger collaboration between Blinders and NLW, Afrojack’s side project.
2. Conor Ross – Dance
a. Club-ready future house, this track can make you really want to stand up, stretch, let loose and dance.
3. Benny Benassi – Back To The Pump
a. Released in 2013, this track is pure energy and will keep you motivated even when you think you can’t go any further. Turn this during a run when you need a boost, and you will get it.
4. RetroVision & Dirty Palm – Switch That
a. This funky yet fun track is just a joy to listen to with a mixture of aggressive drums and happy, pleasant melodies.
5. Zedd, Matthew Koma, & Miriam Bryant – Find You (Kevin Drew Remix)
a. This track is also an older one released in 2014, but it takes a slightly more aggressive and epic tone with Zedd’s wonderful composition which results in a fun and entertaining track.
6. Raven & Kreyn – Bad Boy
a. A slightly darker but still energetic track, this future house banger will get you motivated and energized no matter what you are doing.
7. Brooks & Julian Jordan – Without You
a. A brand new offering from two amazing talents, this electro house track keeps both artist’s signature styles while ensuring that its addicting hook keeps you dancing.
8. Tiesto & Dzeko ft. Preme & Post Malone – Jackie Chan (Daijo Remix)
a. This is a slightly slower yet still powerful track that can keep your energy up on a difficult run or during a difficult assignment. Turn it on and let those gritty bases energize you!
9. Krewella – Team
a. While this is not a house track, it still has an energetic vibe that can keep you going even when you think you cannot go any further.
10. Madeon – The City
a. While slightly different from most modern house tracks, Madeon has created a song that almost tells an entire story while also having some of the most infectious melodies and rhythms ever.
