Robin Schulz
Sugar
Sun-bleached deep house with a soul hook: Robin Schulz builds a sweet, bouncing groove around Francesco Yates and an interpolation of Baby Bash's 2003 'Suga Suga', a number one in seven countries in 2015.
Genre
dance
37 tracks.
Platinum Doug
Move On (Original Club Mix)
A punchy, no-nonsense club mix from the Swiss house producer Platinum Doug on Enormous Tunes, where a repeated vocal hook and a bouncing bassline push the dance floor forward bar after bar.
Mando Diao
Dance With Somebody (Radio Version)
Mando Diao trade garage-rock grit for a disco-rock floor-filler, a pulsing four-on-the-floor beat and a shout-along chorus about needing someone to dance with.
Lilly Wood and The Prick, Robin Schulz
Prayer in C (Robin Schulz Radio Edit)
Robin Schulz lifts a mournful 2010 French folk-pop song onto a bouncing deep house beat, Nili Hadida's bleak prayer and a looping guitar riff becoming a number one across Europe in 2014.
Kav Verhouzer, BullySongs
Get What You Came For
Sunny deep-house chords and a warm, raspy BullySongs vocal: Get What You Came For is an easygoing dancefloor invitation that never pushes, only pulls you in.
Format:B
Chunky (Radio Edit)
A rubbery, swaggering tech-house stomper from Berlin's Format:B, built on a fat bassline and chopped vocals from Shorty Long's 1966 Motown single Function at the Junction, cut down to a radio-sized strut.
Faul & Wad, PNAU
Changes
Faul & Wad Ad build a sax-lit, bittersweet house groove around the children's-choir refrain of Pnau's Baby, a song about growing up that became a European number one.
DJ S.K.T
Must Be A Reason (Radio Edit)
DJ S.K.T rebuilds the vocal hook of Wamdue Project's 1999 number one King of My Castle into a tight, sunny 2017 house edit for DFX, using a replayed sample rather than the original master.
Daft Punk
Get Lucky (Radio Edit)
Nile Rodgers' chicken-scratch guitar, Pharrell's easy vocal and Daft Punk's robot choir turn a four-chord loop into the most irresistible disco revival of the 2010s: the lead single of Random Access Memories, in its radio edit.
Daft Punk
Giorgio by Moroder
Giorgio Moroder tells his own origin story over a click track, then Daft Punk unfold nine minutes of arpeggiated disco, live drums and strings into a time-travelling tribute to the sound he invented.
Daft Punk
Face to Face / Short Circuit
Recorded live at Bercy, Daft Punk fold the sunny house bounce of Face to Face into the jittery robot funk of Short Circuit, and the pyramid crowd goes up with it.
Branko, SKIP&DIE, Fellow
Made of Gold
Branko's global club sound in miniature: an Amsterdam meeting with SKIP&DIE and Fellow on his debut album ATLAS, a gleaming, bass-heavy groove built for a crowd.
Bodyrockers
I Like The Way (Radio Edit)
A crunching dance-rock riff, a strutting beat and a hook about the way you move: Bodyrockers' 2005 floor-filler is pure, unashamed swagger.
Basement Jaxx
Galactical
Bright, bouncing and slightly unhinged, Galactical sends Basement Jaxx and singer Vula off into space on a house groove built for dancing in zero gravity.
Axwell, Max C
I Found U (Radio Edit)
Axwell's piano-lit house anthem distilled to under three minutes: a rolling bassline, a gospel-tinged vocal from Max'C and a chorus built for arms in the air.
Axwell
Feel The Vibe
Axwell's 2004 club record in its original long form: a pumping, filtered house groove that keeps building until the whole floor is lifted with it.
Anna Lunoe
Radioactive
Anna Lunoe's Radioactive, her 2016 debut on OWSLA, is a strobe-lit 'hyperhouse' banger sung in her own voice, all clipped vocal hooks, rave stabs and a low end built to rattle a festival tent.
Ultraísta
Smalltalk
'Smalltalk' is the 2012 lead single of Ultraísta, the trio of Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich, drummer Joey Waronker and singer Laura Bettinson: layered synthesizers and afrobeat-minded drums under a plea to stop the small talk, heard here in Four Tet's garage-shuffle remix.
Fischerspooner
Emerge
'Emerge' is Fischerspooner's debut single and one of the defining records of electroclash: a pounding, theatrical electro-pop anthem from a New York duo that began as a performance art piece about entertainment.
Felix Da Housecat
Madame Hollywood (feat. Miss Kittin)
'Madame Hollywood' by Felix Da Housecat featuring Miss Kittin is an electroclash single that plays the glamour of stardom deadpan: a Chicago house producer's taut electro beat and a French voice that sounds bored by fame.
ACRAZE
Do It To It
Orlando producer ACRAZE turned the vocal of Cherish's 2006 R&B single into a two-and-a-half-minute tech house track that spread through DJ sets before it was released and reached the UK top ten in 2022.
Róisín Murphy
Primitive
The slow, string-laced turn on Róisín Murphy's 2007 electro-disco album Overpowered, co-written with Ill Factor and arranged by Philadelphia soul veteran Larry Gold, heard here in a live performance from the album's era.
Fatboy Slim
Sunset (Bird of Prey)
'Sunset (Bird of Prey)' is Fatboy Slim's 2000 single built around Jim Morrison's voice, sampled from the Doors' 'Bird of Prey': a slow-rising, sun-bleached dance track whose video sends a 1960s fighter pilot on a hallucination.
Vitalic
You Prefer Cocaine
A pulsating electro track from Vitalic's 2001 Poney EP on International DeeJay Gigolo: driving machine beats and a snarling synth riff that capture the raw energy of the early-2000s dance floor.
