ITZY is a five-member Korean dance-vocal unit.

Introduced to the world as the little sisters of TWICE, they too are a group typical of K-pop idols, featuring members with stunning, model-like figures and a performance style of singing and dancing over EDM sounds.

Composed entirely of members born in or after 2000, they may well lead the next era with their stylish, cool, danceable tracks.

Good TimeOwl City

Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen – Good Time (Official Video)

As the chorus says, “It’s always a good time,” this is the ultimate party song.

Rather than trying to convey a deep message, it’s a simple “Let’s get hyped!” kind of track.

It’s a classic that lets you forget everything and just revel in pure fun when you’re out making noise with friends.

OptionsPitbull

Pitbull – Options (Lyric Video) ft. Stephen Marley

Pitbull’s “Options” is truly a perfect party track.

Its beat is catchy and ideal for energizing the dance floor.

The bright melody and positive lyrics also leave listeners feeling happy.

It’s a song I can recommend for any venue—great for everything from BBQs to wedding after-parties.

I can recommend it with confidence because it’s a track many people can enjoy together.

Even those who don’t usually listen to Western pop will instantly help create a fun, shared atmosphere when “Options” by Pitbull comes on.

Definitely give it a try at your next party!

Shake It OffTaylor Swift

Taylor Swift – Shake It Off

According to Yasutaka Nakata, Taylor Swift’s songs are the most exemplary in the world.

Catchiness, trends, and her originality as an artist—each release balances these elements within a single track.

Now that he mentions it, you can hear beats that would work for cheer dance, as well as hip-hop that was on the cutting edge at the time.

She takes all of that in as fashion, organizes it, and turns it into output.

You can tell by watching the music videos.

It’s probably what makes her appealing to a wide range of ages, regardless of gender.

I bet this track would hype up a party, too!
