The HOTTEST Dance Club Songs of the Holiday Season: Jingle Electric 2023
Party Favorz is back, bringing the electrifying Jingle Electric series to life. This collection features the hottest dance club songs of the 2023 holiday season, and they are fire! Eclectic Beats: From Disco House to Tech House The set kicks off with Dom Dolla's "Saving Up," a feel-good Disco House track that radiates warmth and positivity. This song isn't just good; it's a contender for the year's best feel-good anthem. The soulful "Water" by Tyla has been making some waves after teaming up with Marshmello for a rework bringing it into the electronic dance music spectrum. However, Sak Noel picked it up and reworked it into a big House floor anthem making it a tune to revel in on the dance floor. Legendary Vibes: Cher and Classic Remixes In an unusual but welcome twist, Cher's "DJ Play a Christmas Song" makes it into the mix. This holiday tune has taken the top spot on Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart, giving her a #1 song on a Billboard chart for the past 7 decades — a testament to Cher's unwavering appeal. Robin Schulz punches up the song for modern dance floors giving that extra heft to ensure crossover success. Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike, Tiesto, and W&W have reinvented Dido's "Thank You" into a festival-ready big room remix. It's a rendition that's both nostalgic and fresh, capturing attention on multipile Spotify top ten lists. Fresh Takes on Familiar Tunes The one official remix that was left off last week's Club Taylor Volume Two was the LP Giobbi take on "Cruel Summer." It didn't quite fit the overall context of that set but is so good setting off a Melodic House vibe — we made room for it here. You may have remembered our inclusion of the Tears For Fears 80's feelgood classic "Everybody Wants To Rule the World" remixed by Niiko & Swae on our "Summer Farewell" dance party mix. Well, Tiesto came across it on Soundcloud and immediately picked it up and remixed it where it's currently riding high on Beatport's Top 10 Dance charts. It's possibly one of our favorite songs from the 80's and the extra energy Tiesto adds is just the fuel it needs to reach a whole new audience. New Collaborations and Remixes Sofi Tukker, teaming up with The Knocks on "One On One," delivers funk and seduction through Sophie Hawley-Weld's captivating vocals. It's a track that combines fun with a touch of exotic flair when she sings portions of it in Portuguese. Y'all may have remembered our suggestion that Becky Hill's massive "Disconnect" should be remixed in a more DJ-friendly Breakbeat style awhile back. Well, we got it in the Franky Wah remix and it doesn't disappoint. The remix keeps all of the elements of the original Dubstep version but provides a more club feel to the song that's bound to light up dance floors across the globe further guaranteeing it as one of the biggest dance club songs of the year. We are really feeling the David Guetta and Kim Petras remake of the Supertramp Classic Rock "The Logical Song" with their take entitled "When We Were Young (The Logicial Song" as it naturally translates into a club banger that suites it quite well. This could very well be Kim's next big hit outside of her recent collaboration with Sam Smith. Unexpected Gems: Peggy Gou and Lenny Kravitz Finally, after having massive success earlier this year with "(It Goes Like) Nanana," Peggy Gou returns with the House number "I Believe In Love Again" where she teams up with the most leftfield artist you could think of — the uber cool Lenny Kravitz. Kravitz sings using his falsetto voice through out the song giving it a soulful vibe. The original is okay but it's the Jex Opolis remix that really punches the song above its weight making worthy of adding to your Spotify playlist. That's it for the biggest dance club songs of this holiday season. Stay tuned because next week we'll be dropping our annual Holiday Edition for the circuit boys. Until the next time...ENJOY!
