Happy New Year and tha nk you for all the incredible support in our 52nd year! And now on to more in 2023!
#5 – Miley Cyrus “Flowers” – (The Scene Kings Remix) – Miley came back in a big way in 2023 with her new album “Endless Summer Vacation” and “Flowers” was a breakup anthem that centered on female empowerment and independence despite a broken heart. And the Scene Kings made this pop hit a perfect dance anthem!
# 4 – VENBEE & goddarduk “Messy In Heaven” – New comer venbee burst onto the scene with this track that was written in 20 minutes after a dream and with a goal to support a friend going through a difficult time. This song reminded us just how much we love drum ‘n’ bass and made us even more excited for venbee’s debut album!
# 3 – Rita Ora “Praising You” feat. Fatboy Slim – Combining Rita’s powerhouse vocals and an iconic sample of “Praise You”, this track felt both nostaglic and totally fresh in the very best way. It also has a message – “you don’t have to be perfect, you just have to be you”, a reminder that we can all use in 2023 and beyond!
# 2 – Anabel Englund “Need Me Right” – After a huge year in 2022, Anabel came back in 2023 and absolutely dominated! She has three songs on the countdown and “Need Me Right” was an absolute stand out co-written by James Hurr and Paul Harris (one half of dance classic duo Dirty Vegas), we cannot wait for more Anabel domination in 2024!
# 1 – John Summit and Hayla “Where You Are” – Called a “dazzling dance anthem”, “Where You Are” is a high soaring track that dominated in 2023 with its stomping beat and epic synth melodies. This also marks the second year in a row that a song featuring @hayla takes the top spot on the c895 Top 89! She also joined John live on stage in LA a few weeks ago, and we can only hope for more from both John Summit and Hayla in the future!
