Chet Faker
Gold
Chet Faker's smoky late-night soul over a slow, finger-snapping electronic groove, a minimal track that gets all its heat from his weathered voice and a bassline that barely moves.

Camel Power Club
Ourson
Soft beats, sunny loops and a sampled Son House blues voice: Ourson is a short, cuddly piece of French chillout, first a 2015 single and later part of Sputnik II, that feels like a teddy bear rendered in warm sound.
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.
Bob Moses
Tearing Me Up
Bob Moses stretch a smoky, heartsick vocal across a slow-burning deep house groove, all brooding guitar, rolling bass and late-night tension that never quite breaks; its RAC remix won a Grammy.
Blankets
The Hanging Tree
Blankets carries the Mockingjay murder ballad out of the woods and onto the dancefloor: a 2015 French electronic cover that keeps the song's hummable, unsettling melody and sets it to a pulsing beat.
Big Data, Joywave
Dangerous
A strutting, paranoid electro-rock stomp where Joywave's Daniel Armbruster sneers the hook over clipped funk guitar, heavy handclaps and a bassline built for headphones and dance floors alike.
Ben Khan
Savage
Two and a half minutes of warped, woozy funk: Ben Khan's cool falsetto slides over wobbling synths, guitar stabs and brass that sounds trapped inside a bubble.
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.
AWOLNATION
Sail
A slow, menacing electro-rock crawl that erupts into a howled confession, AWOLNATION's Sail is equal parts dread and release.
Avicii
Feeling Good
Avicii wraps the standard Nina Simone made famous in soft, swelling synths and lets Audra Mae's smoky, soaring voice carry a song about new dawns, recorded for a 2015 film about his own recovery from years of touring.
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.
Alle Farben, Graham Candy
Sometimes
Alle Farben's sun-warmed deep house meets Graham Candy's quivering, unmistakable high voice in a wistful Berlin summer song about the days that do not go to plan.
Adam Freeland
Do You
Melodic synths crash into live drums and a snarling rock vocal: Do You opens Freeland's Cope with a breakbeat-punk jolt that sounds like a band and a DJ at war.
Brazilian Girls
Karaköy
A walking-pace daydream named after an old Istanbul harbour district: Sabina Sciubba's supple voice and soft trumpets carry a song of wandering and missing someone, from Brazilian Girls' 2018 comeback album Let's Make Love.
Pigeon John
The Bomb
The Los Angeles rapper Pigeon John opens his 2010 album Dragon Slayer with The Bomb, a bright, bouncing single co-produced with General Elektriks' Hervé Salters from sampled live instrumentation rather than old records.
C2C, Pigeon John
Because of You
'Because of You' by C2C featuring Pigeon John is a bright collision of hip-hop, electronics and soul from four French world-champion turntablists, with the Los Angeles rapper's warm voice riding a beat built by hand on record decks.
Bakermat
The River
'The River' is a short, warm house track from Bakermat's second album The Spirit (2021), a record the Dutch producer built from gospel, soul and folk material: a two-and-a-half-minute sketch of uplift rather than a club epic.
Lulu Rouge
Sweeter Than Sweet (feat. Alice Carreri)
From Lulu Rouge's 2008 debut Bless You, a slow, dub-shadowed Copenhagen downtempo track in which Alice Carreri sings Mikael Simpson's words over deep bass and spacious, echoing textures.
Lulu Rouge
Lulu's Theme (feat. Trentemøller)
Danish duo Lulu Rouge and their old ally Trentemøller in seven and a half minutes of nocturnal minimal house: reverberating dub bass, slow-building layers and a Basic Channel shadow.
Mickey Avalon
Ultra-Violence
A darkly comic outlaw ballad from Mickey Avalon's 2020 album Speak of the Devil, produced by Eli Meltzer as Smoov-E: two small-town boys, a shovel and a getaway, over a jangly guitar and a refrain that nothing in this world is free.
Kazy Lambist
Doing Yoga
The title track of Kazy Lambist's 2015 debut EP: a smooth, sunlit electronic pop song by the Montpellier producer Arthur Dubreucq, laid-back beats and a playful melody built for summer.
Headman
Moisture (Headman Club Version)
Headman's own club version of Moisture, his song with the singer Luca Santucci: a sleek, hypnotic nu-disco and house groove stretched for the dance floor, a bonus track on the 2016 deluxe edition of his album ON.
