Friday Dance Music Guide: The Week’s Best New Tracks From Kaytranada, Peggy Gou, Swedish House Mafia & More
Simply the best new dance tracks of the week from Kaytranada, Peggy Gou, Lszee, Dom Dolla, Swedish House Mafia and Floating Points.
No surprise, then, that guests seemed to be scrambling to get on the project, with Timeless containing collabs with with Childish Gambino, Anderson .Paak, Don Toliver, Dawn Richard, Rochelle Jordan, Tinashe, Thundercat and PinkPantheress, and previous collaborator Channel Tres, who lends his velvet vocals to the tough, sexy club track “Drip Sweat.” Meanwhile, Kaytra sings on his own music for the first time with “Stepped On” and features his little brother, the rapper Lou Phelps, on “Call U Up.” A portion of the Dom Dolla catalog has possessed a sort of delicious strangeness, going back to his happily weird and extremely vibey 2018 single “Take It.” That element of the Australian producer’s artistry is at the fore on his latest “Girl$” an acid trip of a tech house track out via Threesixzero. Dance music renaissance man Floating Points shifts gears from the theater — his orchestra and electronics composition Mere Mortals recently closed a second sold out run with the San Francisco Ballet — into dancefloor mode with “Del Oro.” The producer’s first release since 2023’s excellent “Birth4000,” the track (out via Ninja Tune) is a master class in pacing, rising and falling several times over its lush six minutes and coming in tandem with an elegant video from Tokyo based artist Akiko Nakayama long-time collaborators Hamill Industries.
