Here's a subject I can get behind. I'll unlurk for a bit! Only thing is I'm not exactly sure where one draws the line on mainstream versus not? Name drop? I guess I qualified my list based on aggregate popularity of the song. This isn't really exhaustive of my favorites as all, I almost picked stuff at random really. I like a lot of stuff.

 

Also, hell yeah Dillon Francis and Curbi. :3 Love the selections, sans the Monstercat stuff, I've been a bit iffy on their quality and style as of late, but just my opinion on the matter.

 

Mainstream:

 

Pushing On - Oliver $ and Jimi Jules (Tchami Remix) : Tchami is the real MVP of my music tastes atm, and this would be his signature track IMO. Future Bass OP, one. Beautifully made, two. Good mix, the drop is one of my favorites at the moment and it's just killer and clean. Deserves every one of it's 3.5 mil+ views.

 

Angels - Vicetone ft. Kat Nestel : Ayyyy, Vicetone. Not always the cleanest or most creative of producers, but they know how to make a dancefloor move, and that's my main criteria (because I dance to this music, go figure when it's EDM and all). I also love the lyrical content, rarely enough for an electro house song. Simple but they speak to me fairly well. The yung Saxobeat trumpet sample is used to great effect. Percussive rhythm is fun.

 

The Thrill - Nero (Porter Robinson Remix) : lol Porter Robinson. But seriously though, what he did with this song is damn sexy. The vocal changes from the original song still confound me to this day, I have no idea what sort of thought process he was using to turn the original into this beauty. Love the lyrics, the drop is a classic Worlds Porter 'everyone get kawaii' drop. Nothing to not love. :3

 

Non-Mainsteam:

Already Gone - Alison Wonderland ft. Brave and Lidolido : The production is a little bleh but I just love the idea behind it and Lido's lyrics on the track. I like his voice in general, tbh, I wish he'd sing more, or that I could find the songs where he sings at the very least. When the drop comes we finna get turnt. Also, female DJ-producer reppin'!! :3 :3

 

Aphrodisiak - Benny Benassi and Chris Nasty : I am a sucker for future house in general and I could easily have just thrown a million future house songs into this list lel. I came for Benny Benassi because name rec, but still I think this track isn't getting the attention it needs. Sweet progression on the drop, and I like the history behind the samples they used.

 

Venice - The Lighthouse and the Whaler (Louis the Child Remix) : Just found this one today while trolling around, actually. I'm hoping Louis the Child gets big, I love their clean and really chill pseudo-triphopy/Flumey style production. Something nice to vibe to, drums are too good for this sinful earth.

 

Night Is On My Mind - Oliver : Oliver Oliver Oliver. When/if I get back into producing I swear the tracks by these guys will be the only reference tracks I'd ever need. The mixdowns are some of the best I've ever heard. Excellent bass production that's unique but not crazy overboard for the genre and feel. Slow, sensual, beautiful beautiful track.
