10. Why Even Try (RAC Remix) by Theophilus London
Rapping and rhyming is essential. It's the source of expression for hip hop. NO, don't go away, this isn't a hip hop song. It's a beautiful indie track with a pretty good rapper behind the mid accompanying the melodious jam.
9. Go Outside (Menahan Street Band Remix) by Cults
"A mixture of smoky organs, bells, handclaps, sultry bass and guitar underneath the poppy vocals of Cults singer Madeline Follin."

8. Glad You Came by The Wanted
A highly contagious beat, with a fantastic video taped in Ibiza, Spain. When we heard it in Spain, it became one of our summer anthems.
5. Day Glow by Motion Sickness of Time Travel
A magical combination: ambient-dream pop and female vocals. This has an otherworldly edge that will make you want to download the entire album. This can make an excellent progressive trance remix.

7. Tonight (Give Me Everything) feat. Ne-Yo & Afrojack by Pitbull
This one was obviously going to make the cut. It's an international hit, by Miami's very own. I heard it in every city I was in this summer.

6. Rolling in the Deep (Egesten Bootleg) by Adele
There were several bad ass remixes, but I had to be a little modest. I don't want to blow your speakers away. Ibiza went crazy over this!

4. Starlite (D-Pulse Remix) by Paul Weller
You'd think you were shrooming, but no, no it's just the music. This reminds me of walking on the shores of Ibiza, witnessing a spectacular sunrise. Echoes of males vocals with lucid pop and breaks all in one. Who would've thought? This is perfection.

3. Hours by Tycho
Get comfortable in Scott Hensen's atmospheric tunes. He's back! Wordless narratives are the best, especially when they're composed of radiant synths.

2. Amor Fati by Washed Out
Trancy and indie melodies with a steady thump. The vocals make the song, but the beats are the soul.

1. Hello (Kenny Parkz Remix) by Martin Solveig & Dragonette
Though it's the least bombarding remix, it's unique due to the peak transforming itself into a rather soothing electric feel. This was also played in every city! I never grew tired of it because I always heard a new remix of it. Please, DL these other remixes: Awiin Remix, Blasterjaxx 'Dutch Afro' Bootleg, and the E-Thunder Remix. They're all fantastic.

5. What a Feeling (Extended Mix) by Alex Gaudino feat. Kelly Rowland
I love her vocals mashed with dance music. This is older than August, but a goody.

4. Red Alert by Cansei De Ser Sexy
Their successful new album has filled the stereos of even South Bronx gangsters (I'm not even kidding). This Brazilian group have those of the North obsessed!

Totally and completely strange and dark. The real deal is after 1:45.
1. I Love You by Cansei De Ser Sexy
Their most vibrant single in their new album.
