Which Big Summer Dance Album Is For You?
We break down the big four producer albums from Major Lazer, Jamie xx, HudMo & Giorgio.

Let’s face it, music in 2015 is experiencing one hell of a lull! From pop to rap, various artists in their respective genres lost their creative spark. But thankfully, a new wave of producers has been bubbling underneath the surface who may just be music’s saving grace — specifically with house!

Gone are the days of frizzy synths and headache-inducing bass drops. These up-and-coming producers and musicians are taking a much calmer, more vibrant route when it comes to house music. So, we at Idolator have compiled a list of 10 artists from all over the world who should definitely be on your radar for the months to come. You might just be looking at the next Diplo, Calvin Harris or Zedd!

Grab your best dancing shoes and get into the list (in no particular order) below!

1. We Are Legends 

HOMETOWN: Gothenburg, Sweden

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: At this point, it’s become pretty clear the Swedes know their sh*t when it comes to making catchy music. Gothenburg’s We Are Legends are no different! This electronic duo are fairly new to the game, but they’ve already established their own sound. They take what we love about ’90s house music and twist it for the modern era, with jangling synths and a steady bassline that gives an overall chilled vibe.

ESSENTIAL TRACK: Their remix of Ace Of Base’s “All That She Wants”

2. Arthur Younger

HOMETOWN: London, UK

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: When it comes to the rising genre of nu-disco, Arthur Younger has it on lock! The producer reverts from the coldness of house, and instead brings in warmth that makes his music so comforting to listen to. The songs have weight to them, thanks to the addition of soulful melodies and romantic lyricism.

ESSENTIAL TRACK: His remix of Clean Bandit’s “Rather Be”
