1. LAZE, G.ear, Aasi - Stigma Stone

LAZE, G.ear, Aasi - Stigma Stone

Favourite release of the year by far! The whole EP is next level but I love the glitching vocals and dreamy breakdown in this specific track so much.

2. Swan Meat - Psychopath

Swan Meat - Psychopath cover art

I've been loving all of Swan Meat's tracks this year for how experimental they are, and this stomper has the most crazy use of unique sounds and textures.

3. SONIKKU - Geopolitics

SONIKKU - Geopolitics cover

A nice ethereal track with the most powerful kick that vibrates the whole dancefloor and a crunchy sounding melody. Almost sounds like something out a video game.

Listen here: Spotify

4. TAAHLIAH, Luca Eck - Bodies

TAAHLIAH, Luca Eck - Bodies

Words can't describe my obsession with this tune and the samples it uses, cartoonish and just absolutely wild. The whole refrain adds up to the kick coming back in sends me every time.

5. Shygirl, Basement Jaxx - SIREN (Basement Jaxx Joy Ride Mix)

Shygirl, Basement Jaxx - SIREN (Basement Jaxx Joy Ride Mix)

This track is the remix of the century for me, putting a fat acid bass over Shygirl's vocals. It always gets the best reaction in a club.

Listen here: Spotify

6. Housewife 9, COUCOU CHLOE - True

Housewife 9, COUCOU CHLOE - True

Been absolutely rinsing all of both of these artists' tracks this year so this track really sings to me. Vocals make you feel like a girlboss and it sounds amazing sped up and worked into faster sets.

Listen here: Spotify

7. David Löhlein - Skyra

David Löhlein - Skyra

Dub track of the year in my opinion !!!! I've been loving David Löhlein's releases so much this year - Bad Bitch another incredible track - but this one tickles my brain so much and is a perfect speed for the type of dub I love.

8. Virgen Maria, Naive Supreme - PLAYBOY

Virgen Maria, Naive Supreme - PLAYBOY

The title explains it all - HARD !!!! Experimental, fun, vocals that make you work.

Buy & Listen here: Bandcamp

9. Arman John - Let The Groove Be Your Guide

Arman John - Let The Groove Be Your Guide

Such a euphoric and dreamy track, been one of my favourites to end sets on recently as it brings such a feel-good atmosphere. Reminds me of festivals abroad in the sun.

Listen here: Spotify

10. Part Time Killer - Conversations

Part Time Killer - Conversations

The bass in this track makes me feel so warm inside and the vocals are so dreamy. Such a nice modern trance track, DJ Heartstring-esque.
