DistanceNicky Romero X Olivia Holt
This collaboration between Dutch producer Nicky Romero and American actress-singer Olivia Holt is a dance-pop number that portrays the bittersweet emotions of lovers growing apart.
Released in January 2019, the track blends tropical house rhythms with soulful vocals to powerful effect.
With lyrics that capture the complex feelings caught between love and indifference and a catchy melody, it resonates deeply with listeners.
It’s a recommended listen for anyone who relates to the pain of heartbreak or the gradual cooling of a relationship.
HeavenDJ Sammy
A super refreshing, mood-boosting track from DJ Sammy, who hails from Mallorca, Spain.
The vocals, youthful like a teenager’s, are energetic and cute! It’s literally a feel-good, all-out banger—my top recommendation for trance music.
I especially want listeners who’ve shied away thinking “trance is too intense” to give this one a try.
You On My MindPrismatica
It’s the perfect song for a rainy day outside or a cloudy day in your heart.
The light bossa nova rhythm and gentle vocals are sure to soothe your soul.
Prismatica has released several albums and has even been featured in a TV commercial for a famous department store.
They’re an artist you’ll definitely want to remember.
OrphansColdplay
“Orphans” by the world-renowned rock band Coldplay.
Centered on acoustic guitar, it blends a simple rhythm with ethnic-style percussion to create a great groove.
In the UK rock scene, where many tracks lean toward a gloomy atmosphere, it’s a rare song you can sing and dance along to with everyone.
Kick The NationLost Frequencies & Pickle

It’s a collaboration between Belgium’s Lost Frequencies and America’s Pickle, released in December 2024.
Defined by energetic beats and catchy melodies, it carries a message of dancing to the funk and breaking free.
