5 Tracks You Won’t Believe Were Released 6 Years Ago!
Major Lazer & DJ Snake ft. MØ – Lean On [released 2nd March, 2015]
With over 4 billion streams online and countless awards, ‘Lean On’ has undoubtedly proved itself to be one of the biggest and most successful electronic dance music tracks in history. Using innovative vocal chops, infectious synths in a breakbeat style, Major Lazer and DJ Snake etched their name into the history books with this single when it quickly became the most streamed EDM song in history. It’s no surprise that this future bass/pop dance style has become so popular amongst producers when these two trailblazers have set the standard so high.
Tiesto & KSHMR ft. Vassy – Secrets [released 16th March, 2015]
Already a huge, highly anticipated collab before it was unveiled, the gem that Tiesto and KSHMR delivered in 2015 exceeded all expectations. Built around the vocals of Vassy, the duo created a big room theme intersecting with strong pop influences. It’s the anthem the festival crowds had been waiting for, loaded with timeless chords and strong, contemporary beats. Gaining over 300 million streams in total, this collab proved to be a massive success for all artists involved.
W&W – Rave After Rave [released 16th March, 2015]
On the 16th of March 2015, W&W returned to their home base of Mainstage Music with a truly powerful anthem, ‘Rave After Rave’. One of the most requested IDs over the 2014 and 2015 festival season finally saw the light of day, and it did not disappoint. Using their signature huge riffs, powerful tonal kicks and an overall catchy melody, ‘Rave After Rave’ proved to be a huge success, becoming a regular weapon in the duos live shows.
Oliver Heldens – Melody [released 16th March, 2015]
Making enormous waves for the past 12 months before releasing this one, ‘Melody’ was the next instant classic by Oliver Heldens. Simply titled ‘Melody’, the track features a melodramatic string section and rhythmic piano chords twisting towards a solid house drop. With strong percussion and the infectious groove we’ve gotten to know from the Dutch DJ, it was a new step for mister Heldens, without losing his trademark sound.
Nicky Romero x Volt & State – Warriors [released 30th March, 2015]
Expertly layering rich melodic synths with driving yet enchanting vocals, ‘Warriors’ climaxes in a euphoric drop that creates an uplifting, progressive anthem suitable for any festival main stage. Alongside Nicky, Volt & State have created an anthem portraying a mantra of never giving up and always fighting for what you believe in which can be related to on a universal level.

BETH Turns Up the Energy With New Single ‘Wait’
Scottish producer BETH returns on The Cross Records with new single Wait, following a breakout 2026 of festival slots, Ibiza dates and Radio 1 support.
In the space of a year, BETH has gone from respected up and comer to a genuine festival act. Her debut on The Cross Records, “Keep It Movin’,” is closing in on 1 million streams, and she’s kept up a steady run of releases on labels like TSHA’s Jackfruit, Eats Everything’s Edible, and Melon Bomb Records, along with a well received remix of Karen Harding’s “Island.” That output has earned her support on BBC Radio 1, with plays from Sarah Story and Arielle Free.
Her live schedule has kept pace too. This year she’s played TRNSMT Festival, Sub Club, Cabaret Voltaire, and SWG3 in Scotland, Mas Que Nada in London, and Lakota in Bristol, plus Ibiza dates at Hï, Cova Santa, and Pikes.

“Wait” marks a step forward in her production. Where “Keep It Movin'” leaned into sultry, harmonic melodies, “Wait” goes bigger and brighter, built around euphoric piano chords, a driving 90s inspired break, and deep reese bass. It’s a feel good summer record from an artist whose rise shows no signs of slowing down.

Deadlynoiz Breaks Bass House Boundaries In New Single ‘Rock The House’
The ever-evolving Deadlynoiz is back with another new single ‘Rock The House’ adding to his stacked 2026 repertoire.
Stepping into the world of bass house for this track, Deadlynoiz has produced a hugely impactful hit brimmed with his hallmark strengths. ‘Rock The House’ is a fantastic showcase of his ability to design and blend together a myriad of creative synths to deliver powerful soundscapes. The track keeps pumping from start to finish but is dynamic in its energy shifting from the more melodic verses to the aggressive, bass face inducing choruses. Deadlynoiz is consistently looking to evolve his productions and has leaned into more experimental territories here with emphatic results.
His development as an artist is evident from both his productions and his accolades as he’s attracted the attention of LVLD Music. He’s dropped a slew of hits with them and is continuing to develop their relationship with the release of ‘Rock The House’ on their label. Since it’s release the track has already raked in thousands of streams and he’s pushed onto releasing even more music in ‘Magic’ and ‘Block.’ Now bringing in over 20,000 streams a month on Spotify it’s clear that Deadlynoiz’s hard work is paying off as his fanbase continues to grow.
‘Rock The House’ is another step forward in Deadlynoiz’s evolution in sound and development as an artist. With every release he’s proving his abilities in the studio and with the rate he’s working at, there’s plenty more to come.
