Cool NCS tracks: A collection of hype bangers (1–10)
ThrowbackElectro-Light
Electro-Light is a UK-born music producer known for his mastery of various genres, including drum and bass, electro house, and trap.
He’s also one of the most prominent producers on NCS.
Among his works, a track I especially recommend is “Throwback.” This song is crafted as a four-on-the-floor, high-energy EDM tune.
Its structure is reminiscent of eurobeat—a genre that’s also popular in Japan—so be sure to give it a listen.
On & On (feat. Daniel Levi)Cartoon
Cartoon is a music producer trio from Estonia.
They’ve gained popularity for their sound that blends drum and bass and drumstep into future bass.
Among their works, the track I especially recommend is On & On (feat.
Daniel Levi).
It’s one of the most popular releases on NCS, boasting over 400 million plays.
While it’s not a heavy track, its powerful, melodic vibe is well worth a listen!
Light It Up (feat. Jex)Robin Hustin x TobiMorrow
The track “Light It Up (feat.
Jex),” created by music producer Tobimorrow—who began attracting attention around 2018—and Luxembourg-born producer Robin Hustin.
It’s one of the more popular releases on NCS, so some of you may already know it.
The real charm of this song is, without a doubt, the impact of the drop.
The structure may be orthodox, but the heavy sound that effortlessly clears the bar leading into the drop is nothing short of overwhelming.

YouAxol x Alex Skrindo
Alex Skrindo is a music producer who has gained popularity for a sound centered on electro house and melodic dubstep.
He debuted on NCS in 2015 and has consistently dropped hit tunes ever since.
Among his works, the track I especially recommend is “You.” It’s an electro house piece with a pop-leaning melody throughout.
Even those not familiar with EDM should find it easy to listen to, so be sure to check it out.
FreeElektronomia & JJD
JJD is a music producer who has continuously maintained his popularity from 2016 to the present.
Few NCS producers are as consistently prolific at turning out hit tunes as he is, so those who regularly listen to NCS music may already know him.
Among his works, the one I especially recommend is “Free,” his collaboration with Elektronomia.
It’s a refined track that blends crisp EDM with a dreamy melodic line.
Mortals (feat. Laura Brehm)Warriyo
Wariyo is a music producer with all kinds of complicated backstories.
He once ended up being treated as unofficial and having his track removed from NCS because he debuted there with a remix of a song that wasn’t on the NCS label.
However, he later made his official debut with NCS.
Among his works, the track I especially recommend is Mortals (feat.
Laura Brehm).
It’s his official debut song, featuring a sharp, Japanese-inspired melody that leaves a strong impression.
Cloud 9Itro & Tobu
Ito and Tobu, who have been gaining attention as producers on NCS, teamed up to create Cloud 9.
The track combines a four-on-the-floor “don, don, don, don” beat with a melodic synthesizer, making it very easy to listen to.
There’s also a cooldown section in the middle, giving the whole piece a very stylish vibe.
While the style is EDM, it isn’t overly intense, so it works great as background music too!
