This week in dance music: The Do Lab announced its Coachella 2025 lineups, Bonnaroo 2025 announced that its adding a new dance-focused stage, the team behind Breakaway Music Fetival announced a new label and management division called Breakaway Projects, we spoke with Anotr about their dazzling and recently released album On a Trip, and we spoke with Darkside about their new album Nothing.

A judge ruled that Ultra Music Publishing must change its name following a lawsuit brought by Sony Music and its Ultra Records subsidiary, Anna Lunoe and Mel C. teamed up for a new track, we talked to our February Dance Rookie of the Month Stryv about his global hit “Move,” and we spoke with the legend Armin van Buuren about remixing Bon Jovi’s 1992 classic “Keep the Faith.” Meanwhile, Justice earned its first ever Radio No. 1 with the duo’s Grammy winning Tame Impala collab “Neverender.”

That’s a lot, and there’s more. These are the best new dance tracks of the week.

Anyma feat. Ellie Goulding, “Hypnotized” (John Summit Remix) 

Ahead of his slot opening for Anyma at Sphere this weekend, John Summit drops his edit of “Hypnotized,” Anyma’s collab with Ellie Goulding released in January and a contender for one of the most major dance releases of the year thus far. It’s an apt meeting of the minds, with Summit leaving the track largely in tact but adding a siren-laden bridge and other smart flourishes that have his fingerprints all over them. The epic build that Summit layers in will without a doubt have ’em going wild in the seats tomorrow (March 1) when he plays in support of Anyma’s lauded audiovisual spectacular.

2hollis, “Style”

It seems everything Los Angeles-based artist 2hollis touches turns to gold, with his latest single “style” already racking up tens of thousands of views across platforms. The song is slight in length (one minute and 39 seconds) but absolutely goes, with a twisted, wind-up production paired with distorted beats and the artist breathily declaring “I like your style.” (Please also see the simple but effective accompanying video.) 2hollis currently on tour in Asia and Europe, with the run set to conclude with performances at Coachella in April and an appearance at Bonnaroo in June.

Carlita & Andre Zimmer, “Raf”

Carlita joins the esteemed crew of producers who’ve assembled one of fabric’s mix compilations, with the lead single from fabric presents: Carlita out today. A collaboration with Toronto producer Andre Zimmer, “Raf” is all out gospel house bliss with muscle and a BPM sure to make ’em sweat. fabric presents: Carlita is out on April 11.

Tesh, “Wants & Needs”

Hitting with the same zest and effervescence of your favorite flavor of La Croix, “Wants & Needs” is the newest from rising producer, Tesh. The richly textured song is laced with U.K. garage and manages to emote a certain amount of love and longing (with the vocals doing a lot of the heavy lifting here) even while also bouncing merrily along. “Wants & Needs” is the second single from Tesh’ forthcoming Cycles + Repetitions EP, coming April 25 via San Holo’s bitbird label. (And don’t sleep on the project’s lead single “Fingertips,” released in January.)

Rusko, “1 Man Army”

The British master is back with his first new solo work in two years with “One Man Army,” a track that delivers the same hectic D&B + bass that’s made Rusko a longtime hero. Out on Monstercat, the song is the title track from a five-song, no skips EP. “Creating this EP was a mission that began with a simple desire to explore more areas of my love for drum and bass,” the producer says. “Over the past 19 years, I’ve been experimenting with new sounds, genres, and emotions — and this collection is a reflection of the vibes and feelings of this past year as Rusko.”
