In typical KREAM fashion, the edit arrives alongside a remarkable designed music video that transports your mind, body, and soul into a robotic fever dream.
R3HAB, Pupa Nas T, Kevin McKay, Skytech, Denise Belfon, Fideles – Work [Glasgow Underground]
The “Work” vocal has officially reached global takeover status, and this update seals the deal. R3HAB and Skytech reimagine Kevin McKay’s 2022 revival of Pupa Nas-T & Denise Belfon’s hook with an aggressive club-ready backbone. If you caught ANYMA b2b Travis Scott at UNVRS, you already know how explosive this one gets.
KASIA, Charles D (USA), Sarah de Warren – PSYCHO [Drumcode]
KASIA, Charles D, and Sarah de Warren craft a techno cut that is as sleek as it is menacing. “PSYCHO” fuses rolling percussion and dark melodic energy with Sarah’s hypnotic vocal hook, forming a perfect tension between melody and intensity. Already a weapon in Adam Beyer’s festival arsenal, this track hits with precision and grit.
Argy, John Cala – BOOM [NEWORLD]
Minimal structure meets high-impact payoff on “BOOM,” Argy’s potent collaboration with John Cala. Each element, from the stripped-down percussion to the grinding bassline, feels deliberate, like tension built for detonation. Subtle vocal chops and an airtight groove keep it raw yet infectious.
Innellea, Peces Raros – Parte del Juego [Watergate Records]
Innellea and Peces Raros collide worlds on “Parte del Juego,” blending human-driven performance with cinematic production. The song unfolds like a story: intricate layers of synths and live instrumentation giving it both warmth and edge. Reflective yet commanding, it is fit for massive venues and headphone sessions alike. This one cements Peces Raros’ rise as one of Argentina’s most dynamic exports.
Cristoph, Diana Miro – Echoes [Interstellar]
Cristoph and Diana Miro reunite for another emotionally charged gem, balancing melodic house depth with vocal delicacy. Diana’s haunting delivery turns “Echoes” into a reflection of memory and movement, while Cristoph’s production swells with restrained power. The arrangement feels fluid and alive, breathing between stillness and lift. Together, they create something intimate yet designed to resonate on vast stages.
Adam Sellouk, Zerky – Touch It [Spinnin’ Deep]
Centered around a reimagined Daft Punk sample, “Touch It” is Adam Sellouk’s long-awaited crowd favorite, now officially unleashed alongside Zerky. The duo turns nostalgia into something fierce, layering distorted bass and pulsing percussion beneath Zerky’s addictive topline. It has been a weapon in the sets of John Summit and Mau P for months, and for good reason. Every drop lands like a jolt of energy straight to the chest.
David Lindmer, Osxan – Crystallize [Running Clouds]
From David Lindmer and Osxan, “Crystallize” is one of many heaters from Running Clouds’ Emergence compilation, featuring tracks from a mix of rising artists and underground veterans. This includes Ed Lopes, Fabian B., 1LINE, RIKO & GUGGA, Gueva, Nosssia, and Bolth to name a few. This highlight track on the compilation is centered around a heavy bassline, pounding percussion, acid synths, and a robotic female vocal lead who repeatedly utters one word: “crystallize”.
Agents Of Time, CERES – Baby [Time Machine]
Just when it seems like Agents Of Time couldn’t release any more monumental anthems this year, the duo has done it again. This time, they have joined forces with gifted singer-songwriter CERES on “Baby”. CERES’s lyrics are as mesmerizing as the instrumental itself. If you hear this come on at the rave, get ready for your body to be dancing on autopilot.
Corey James, MORGANJ, Tyoz – Jungle [SIZE Records]
One of the most anticipated bangers of 2025, rising artists Corey James, MORGANJ, and Tyoz have finally dropped “Jungle”. A stellar fit for its encompassing label, SIZE Records, this tune was played by Swedish House Mafia at Creamfields and other household names across dance music.
Goom Gum – Gothico [Avtook Records]
Goom Gum’s “Gothico” moves like a ritual. It is dark, majestic, and entirely hypnotic. Gothic choirs echo through metallic percussion, while heavy kicks build a cathedral-sized atmosphere. Both spiritual and mechanical, it captures the duo’s signature balance between sonic art and aggression.
TH;EN – Lucid Ashes [Truesoul]
A double single release with “Eclipse Boom”, “Lucid Ashes” sees TH;EN step deeper into the melodic techno cosmos, intertwining trance-inspired arps with raw, emotional undertones. This tune drifts through glowing pads and soaring breaks, never losing its grounded rhythm. Reflective and immersive, it is destined for open-air settings under the night sky.
Mark Knight, Wolfgang Gartner – Conscindo (Ginchy Remix) [Zerothree Music]
A modern rework of the 2010 Toolroom anthem, Ginchy’s remix of “Conscindo” reignites the spark that made the original unforgettable. The remix leans into progressive trance textures, injecting sleek momentum into that iconic pluck melody. Every rise and drop feels finely tuned for the modern festival landscape.
Aalson – Fear [Dancecode]
Aalson turns unease into art on “Fear,” using dissonant piano strikes, breath samples, and haunting strings to create something both human and alien. The production builds like a psychological thriller, balancing serenity with tension. Each detail feels alive, with every inhale, every distorted chord, pulling you further into its world. It is not just dark melodic techno; it is storytelling through sound. “Fear” is a perfect track for Halloween festivals and warehouse rave.
