Compilation, Featured, House | Top 50 Dance Tracks Of 2013 (Including 50-41)
Posted by Middy on January 13, 2014
Yes we know, you may be “top _____ of 2013” listed out, but bear with us as we present you our top 50 dance tracks of 2013. In the past we have done just big room / progressive, but here we attempt to take on the whole genre, from trap to progressive to deep house. A few ground rules and biases for how these tracks were selected. “Top” means biggest and best. So the most supported and played out tracks, first and foremost, but also our own bias as well to make this list not just a carbon copy of every other one you have read. All of us are based in the US / Canada, so our perception of what is played live is a largely US worldview, though we try and take a step back. The songs have to have been released in 2013. So tracks like “Easy”, “I Could Be The One”, “Alive”, “Clarity” and “Harlem Shake”, while all huge in 2013, won’t qualify for the list because they were released in 2012. Tough luck, but I think the artists will manage. Check out 50-41 after the jump and at the end find links for 40-31, 30-21, 20-11 and the best of the best, 10-1.

DJ Snake ended the year with a #1 on the iTunes Dance chart with Lil Jon’s “Turn Down For What,” announcing a residency in Las Vegas at Wynn Resorts, and back to back shows in NYC and San Diego to bring in the new year. Not slowing down, and for no reason in particular, today he releases a mash up of Prodigy and Mercer entitled “Breathe (Parisian Vision).” Go into this track with no expectations, the drop is going to be a slap in the face, one like you’ve never heard it before. This is a must listen and a must download!

** After reading the comments under the Snake track, it appears 4 months ago producer Breaux released his own remix of Mercer and Prodigy’s”Breathe” and it sounds exactly like the one that was released today! Have a listen for yourself!

Electronic, Indie | Portugal. The Man – Purple Yellow Red & Blue (Passion Pit Remix)
Posted by mimada on July 8, 2013
“Purple Yellow Red & Blue” has easily been one of my most played songs so far this summer. I actually enjoyed all of Portugal. The Man’s latest album, Evil Friends, which was produced by Danger Mouse. This remix by Passion Pit, though, turns the indie rock track into a groovy nu disco ballad, giving it even more colors than it started it out with. For fans of the original, you may be a little turned off by what Passion Pit did here with the chorus but give it a chance and just dance. Also, if you haven’t seen the official music video, stop whatever you’re doing, make sure there’s no one around you, and watch it here.

House | Chris Moody – All For Love feat. Christopher Jackson (Original Mix)
Posted by Jess on January 28, 2013
Chris Moody comes through with an incredible new single entitled “All For Love” featuring Christopher Jackson. This new vocal House is sure to rock clubs around the world with its lovely piano melodies combined with its dance floor ready synths and drops. Christopher Jackson also has a remarkable voice and I would love to hear more from him. Check out the track below and be sure to purchase it on Beatport if you like what you hear.
Dubstep | R Rated #57
Posted by Mach on November 28, 2012
Ah, once again my favorite time of the week. Ommi (previously Deadpool Dubstep) has graced our ears with his first filthy remix under his new name. Remixing an already epic tune from Syrebral, Ommi dropped this fantastically like Getter. Heavy and crunchy, a true eardrum destroyer and perfect start to this weeks R Rated.
Free Download: Syrebral – Broken Angels (Ommi Remix)
Asian Trash Boy never disappoints with his free remixes. He has a cool Hip-Hop/Dubstep blend that only feels right to rock out to.
CrusiA is new a producer to me, as of tonight in fact. Listening to this track, it started out interesting but nothing really grabbed me. Little did I know I was going to lose my virginity again about 34 seconds into the track.
Free Download: CrusiA – Get Bass OS2
This turned out to be the most interesting track of my night. The track starts out like any other Dance or House track. I really just didn’t want to listen anymore after that, but something about Dubstep being its labeled genre made me have to know what was in store. Worth the curiosity.
If you click “Read On,” a magical unicorn will appear or you will find more R Rated Dubstep.
Electro | Lady Gaga – Just Dance (Tony Arzadon Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on September 23, 2011
Upon completion of my 23 hour road trip down south (no not that south you perv), there’s only one thing I really want to do right now, DANCE. As such, I dug up this bass thumping remix to Lady Gaga’s classic hit “Just Dance”. It takes a second to pull you in but once the extra goodies hit your ears, you’ll be glad you stuck around.
