MIX. 02 – BOTHERED!

Hailing from Toronto, Canada, Femtanyl is a rising artist who drew attention with the EP “REACTOR,” released in January 2025.

With a unique style that fuses fierce breakbeats, scream-like vocals, and aggressive electronic rhythms, they’ve earned fervent support from the furry community as well.

Released in February 2025, this work is an ambitious remix of Kreayshawn’s “Gucci Gucci.” While weaving in elements of digital hardcore and breakcore, it interprets the song’s message—staying true to yourself without being swept up by high-end brands or trends—in a distinctive way.

It’s an energetic, cyber-tinged track that makes you want to move on a late-night club floor.

Never Forget YouAfrojack

AFROJACK – Never Forget You (Official Lyric Video)

This work, released in March 2025 by Dutch artist Afrojack—who has long been active as a global master of progressive house—is a moving track that truly feels like a return to his roots.

Starting with a gentle piano intro and building with the passionate vocals of British singer-songwriter Paige Cavell, the arrangement blends nostalgia with freshness.

Updating the sound reminiscent of early-2010s hits like “Take Over Control” and “Ten Feet Tall” for the modern era, the track swells into a dramatic, festival-ready drop in the latter half.

Crank it up during summer drives or parties, and it’s guaranteed to elevate the atmosphere in an instant—an undeniable anthem.

ILLENIUM, Tom Grennan, Alna – Forever (Visualizer)

ILLENIUM, a producer leading the EDM scene with his emotional melodies.

He excels at melodic bass, and his grand sound captivates countless fans.

In September 2025, he released “Forever,” featuring the soulful vocals of Tom Grennan and the spiritually inclined ALNA.

The song’s poignant lyrics ask, “What if forever existed?” in the face of a relationship that has ended, striking a deep emotional chord.

The duet-like vocals by Tom and ALNA delicately capture subtle shades of feeling.

ILENNIUM himself calls it “a song for the early-day fans,” packing in the dramatic sound that defines his roots—from a monumental build-up to an explosive, cathartic drop.

It’s also notable as Tom Grennan’s first collaborative single since 2022.

A perfect track for anyone wanting to sink into a sentimental night.

Friday (ft. Fridayy)The Chainsmokers

Friday

The Chainsmokers have taken the world by storm with countless global hits, powered by EDM-driven tracks and irresistibly catchy melodies you can’t forget after a single listen.

As of 2024, they’ve announced they’re embarking on the “sixth chapter” of their musical journey, and this track, Friday, is the second installment.

It features Fridayy, who has been nominated for a Grammy and drew attention in 2023 with his self-titled debut album.

There’s a quintessential Chainsmokers sense of humor in bringing on a singer whose name matches the song title.

With hints that nod to “2016,” the track recalls the romantic, mellow vibe of their classic Closer released that same year.

It’s a great pick even for those who aren’t into the hard-hitting side of EDM.
