Recommended Dance Music for High School Students (21–30)
Last TimeBecky Hill
Becky Hill is a U.S.-born singer known for her powerful singing style and husky voice.
While she isn’t that well-known in Japan, she’s extremely popular in the United States.
Among her works, the one I especially recommend for high school students is “Last Time.” It has a classic dance-pop melody that evokes the 2010s, and Becky Hill’s powerhouse vocals are on full display from start to finish—so it’s guaranteed to get you pumped!
BEDJoel Corry x RAYE x David Guetta
The masterpiece “BED” was created by three artists: French music producer David Guetta, British pop singer RAYE, and British DJ Joel Corry, who is also active as a television personality.
Released in February 2021, this track is characterized by its light house sound.
Because the song lacks strong dynamic shifts, it might be hard to use for a school festival performance, but it’s highly recommended as a party song.
PressureMartin Garrix feat. Tove Lo
Martin Garrix, a Dutch music producer with worldwide popularity, has enjoyed global success since the early 2010s and has been highly acclaimed as a top DJ since the mid-2010s.
The track he collaborated on with Swedish singer Tove Lo is Pressure.
Released in 2021, this piece is crafted into a distinctive form of house music that can’t quite be called deep house.
It’s a stylish dance number—high school students, don’t miss it!
ThumbsSabrina Carpenter
Sabrina Carpenter, an American entertainer who rose to worldwide fame for her role as Maya Hart in Disney Channel’s hit comedy-drama “Girl Meets World,” is also active as a singer and has been steadily growing in popularity.
One of her hit songs is “Thumbs.” It’s a track that layers chic production with sultry vocals; although it was released in 2017, it doesn’t feel dated at all.
It has a mature vibe, but it’s a sound that even high school students can totally groove to, so be sure to check it out.
Lifestyle feat. Adam LevineJason Derulo
Jason Derulo has continued to be a favorite in the R&B scene since the 2000s.
These days, unlike his early work, he incorporates stronger elements of dance music.
A track that lets you fully experience his current sound is Lifestyle feat.
Adam Levine.
It’s a collaboration with Adam Levine, the vocalist of Maroon 5, and features Latin-inspired phrases throughout the song.
It’s a perfect track for a hot summer day—like going on a date with your girlfriend on a mid-sized motorcycle.
