Nervo, the twin duo from Australia also known as Grammy-winning songwriters, released their debut album Collateral in 2015 as the culmination of their long career.

Rooted in EDM while hinting at disco and drum & bass, it’s a sparkling, treasure box-like record brimming with diverse sounds.

The title Collateral reflects the idea that “everything we’ve experienced has built up to who we are now.” Put it on when you want to feel your best, and you’ll be filled with the positive energy that electrifies dance floors around the world.

Share it with someone, and tomorrow—and every day after—might shine even brighter.

Baauer – One Touch (ft. AlunaGeorge & Rae Sremmurd)

Among EDM genres, trap stands out with a distinctive presence.

Its hallmark is a sound that feels like underground hip-hop refashioned for the dance floor, and Baauer is the most talked-about producer in the trap scene.

On his debut album “Aa,” he fully showcases the allure of trap—eerie yet danceable.

Knife Party originally gained attention as an electro-influenced rock band called Pendulum.

The DJ sets they started on the side during their band activities hit the EDM boom and made them famous.

Since releasing the album “Abandon Ship,” they’ve been fully riding the momentum, even visiting Japan separately from Pendulum.

Including their work with Pendulum, they’re artists to watch going forward.

Skrillex has grown into a global artist with his intense style and booming, growling low-end bass sound.

Although he primarily released EPs after his debut, he dropped his long-awaited album debut, Recess, in 2014.

As his first full-length, Recess stands out for its aggressive and incendiary tracks throughout.

Give it a listen when you’re feeling irritated.

As a Japanese American, he might feel familiar to Japanese people—that’s Steve Aoki.

On the streets he’s even called the “party boss” (lol).

His debut album is Wonderland, a simple yet club-ready record.
