who: kennedy & @vincexmatthews

where: the fun spot

when: season of love (feburary, 2025)

The sense of nostalgia was strong as Kennedy stepped into the Fun Spot. It normally wasn't the kind of place she'd spend her nights at, but she decided to step out of her comfort zone. And she couldn't resist the thrill of trying to win at an arcade game or maybe trying to take a lap while keeping steady on a pair of skates. She knew she'd be a little rusty in whatever she tried, so she glanced around slightly, her eyes catching a familiar face she could confide in. "I don't know if I want to jump into roller skating right away, think I have to build up to that. What were you thinking of doing first?"

Those of you who followed my writings for a while would know that I'm a hoe for angst (~˘▾˘)~

Trigger Warning: Heavy angst and major character’s death.

List of the songs quoted by order:

Lewis Capaldi - Someone You Loved*

Don't Watch Me Cry - Jorja Smith****

(Tears of Themis) Attending MC's Funeral:

Marius Von Hagen:

Marius was a pure mess. Eyes red and swollen, fists clenched tightly by his sides, and tears clinging to his eyelashes, Marius stood near the coffin you were laid in. Under his desperate request, the lid of the casket was kept tightly shut, for he was simply unable to see you lying motionless and pale in front of his eyes and not lose his mind.

Vincent, Marius' secretary, was in charge of the entire event. Although the young painter knew it would be impossible for him to calmly organize your funeral, he did not want to give up the task to any of your relatives. As such, he gave brief orders to his most trusted aid to not spare any efforts in organizing a ceremony worth of you and your weight in Marius' life as his fiancée.

At a certain point of the funeral, Marius would simply break down completely. He would crumble to his knees beside your coffin and repeatedly murmur your name as he sobs his heart out, hoping and praying he would hear your usual exasperated yet gentle response back at him.

The entirety of the funeral, it would be quite impossible to even get a single word out of Marius, let alone engage in a conversation with him. Only Vyn would be able to successfully coax him to drink some water or grab a bite before he drags himself to a coffin next to yours.

Marius' cheerful, mischievous and playful nature was nowhere to be found after your death. The warm embrace that sheltered him from the ruthless and merciless world simply disappeared. Marius was only able to get this far, juggling mountains of heavy responsibilities with a smile, thanks to your presence in his life. But now that you were gone, the youth felt that nothing was worth it anymore. The one thing he still kept at it was his paintings because he still wanted to keep you alive with his own trembling hands even if you were gone from his side for good.

"And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes

I fall into your arms

I'll be safe in your sound 'til I come back around."*

Artem Wing:

Artem's mourning attire was as meticulous and tidy as always as he rigidly stood near your coffin, receiving guests’ condolences for the death of his fiancée. Despite appearing calm and collected on the exterior, Artem's hand trembled each time he extended it for a handshake and his eyes never looked up from the ground for hours with no end. Only Celestine was aware of the warm tears gliding down his cheeks the whole time, as she stood by his side and cried openly for his sake as well as hers.

Artem would definitely fight with Luke about who would be in charge of organizing your funeral. But despite Luke's bitter and loud protests that he is your only family present in the city, Artem would still hold his ground with a fierce stubbornness that no one knew he was capable of. Following countless fights between the two, Artem would take it upon himself to plan and prepare for everything alone. Each night, he would silently break down in the quiet house you both purchased in preparation for your upcoming wedding with no one to comfort him by his side.

The funeral would be a small yet well-organized affair. Artem took into consideration all of your preferences; from your favorite colors to the flowers you adored with all of your being. The entire hall basked in the gentle smell of fresh roses as Artem took his time to tenderly tend to each one of the blooming flowers before guests started to arrive. Celestine watched from the sidelines after Artem snapped at her twice for trying to help him and desperately prays to the heavens she does not have to attend another funeral too soon.

Artem lost his one and only love after your death and, subsequently, completely shuts off his heart to everyone. He immerses himself in work even further to the point of having to visit the hospital once every week because of extreme exhaustion and stress. Artem was simply trying to keep the promise he made to you a long time ago, when he vowed he would protect the peace you sacrificed yourself to create.

"I'm sorry, don't leave me, I want you here with me

I know that your love is gone

I can't breathe, I'm so weak, I know this isn't easy

Don't tell me that your love is gone."**

Luke Pearce:

Luke's face was unreadable for the entirety of the day. Coral eyes reflected mere emptiness and void, jaw clenched and mouth tightly shut. None of his features betrayed any emotion. No sadness, no remorse and no longing. Everything screamed of resignation and hopelessness. As if he has simply accepted it all and refused to utter a word about what he truly felt about your death.

Luke took charge of everything concerning your funeral, down to the tiniest details. Aaron helped around, choking up every time Luke turned around to say something, but finding your usual figure nowhere to be seen near him. Each time that happened, Luke's eyes, already empty and dead, would sink deeper into nothingness. Luke would then smile at Aaron after seeing him staring. Like nothing was wrong. Like Luke was not planning to follow you soon. 

When Kiki broke down at your funeral, her tears wetting her cheeks and sobs filling the entire hall, Luke was there to give her a hand. When Celestine was unable to swallow her grief back any longer, she turned back to Luke, and he silently escorted her out of the place in a heartbeat. Luke's presence carried the entire funeral smoothly to its end. Yet, even as the very last guest left the hall, Luke still stayed behind to help tidy up and take care of the final paperwork.

Only when he was alone in the quiet and empty room where your casket was sitting at the center, did Luke finally crumble down. His façade fell down at last and the young man fell down to his knees. Wretched sobs were torn out from his throat and tears fell soundlessly to the marbled floor. Luke lost his everything; his best friend, his family, his beloved and his life line. Everything crumbled down in one day and now Luke cannot withstand the crushing feeling of loss that is suffocating him every second of every day. 

"In another life

I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were

The one that got away

The one that got away."***

Vyn Richter:

Standing motionlessly in front of your coffin, surrounded by members of your family and your closest friends, Vyn truly felt alone for the first time ever since you accepted him into your life. The bitter loneliness and coldness that Vyn was familiar with for so long was abruptly back to haunt him the moment the police called to deliver the news of your death.

During the blissful time Vyn has spent beside you, he has managed to delude himself into believing this happiness will last. He should have been ready. He should have considered the possibility of this happening and prepared well to face this sort of bleak future. Being someone who dealt with people’s anguish and misery every single day for a living, Vyn should have simply known better. He should have known better than to cling to your warmth and affection as his sole reason to live.

As Marius stood near him while guests slowly flooded the funeral hall, the young CEO weakly noted that his tutor’s usual golden and bright eyes seemed to have lost their vividness even under the room’s harsh light. Marius swallowed back his own tears as he watched Vyn receive another guest’s condolences. The silver band adorning the older man’s ring finger seemed also to have lost its shine, matching its owner’s status. 

Marius couldn’t bring himself to even utter a word under the heavy atmosphere surrounding Vyn. The young painter still remembered how his tutor did not shed a tear, nor uttered a word of pain or anguish, as you breathed your last in his arms. He just quietly sat there, your cold body cradled gently in his strong arms, before bending down to softly peck your forehead and gently close your lifeless eyes.

As the daylight gradually faded into darkness and the funeral hall was emptied from its guests, Vyn remained in the same spot. The line within his heart stretched even further under the crushing weight of grief before the soft noise of it snapping, heard only by Vyn, echoed in the silence. Only then did Vyn move towards your casket and bend down, his tears flowing down to the floor in a wordless grieving.

“I'm not crying 'cause you left me on my own

I'm not crying 'cause you left me with no warning

I'm just crying 'cause I can't escape what could've been.”****

For better or for worse, I have a job that is exempt - to a great degree - from the widespread need for isolation (in the world of news radio, the show must go on). However, I do get days off and thank goodness for that because my brain can only take so much constant pandemic talk.

So! I offer up ‘the ultimate music list’, something I started doing on YouTube last year. Maybe earlier. It’s a living list, it will never be complete. Anyway, listen to the way my music mind rambles! All songs listed on the other side of the keep reading line (not linked, you gotta do some of the work):

THE NIGHT HAS A THOUSAND EYES ; a selection of soundtracks for k. s.

organized chronologically (within) & thematically (in general)

for v.f.d. —

library magic - the head and the heart can’t stay healthy in the cloud of eyes / listening to my every move, just trying to survive / self-imposed adventure that selfishness drives / i can barely keep my head above the blue, trying to keep it off me and you... the easier to begin and hard to end / i’m just glad to go through it all with you as friends

any way the wind blows - anais mitchell no use use talking of a past that's past / set out walking and we don't look back / where we're going there ain't no one knows

youth - daughter and if you’re still bleeding, you’re the lucky ones / ‘cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone

earth - sleeping at last i dig ‘til my shovel tells a secret, swear to the earth that i will keep it / brush off the dirt, and let my change of heart occur... meanwhile, my family’s taking shelter / the sparks send the fire down the wire / a countdown begins until the dynamite gives in / the echo, as wide as the equator / travels through a world of built-up anger - too late to pull itself together now

the stranger at my door - brandi carlile we exorcise the demons of the things we used to know / the gnashing of their teeth becomes the remnants of our homes / we think we’re moving on from materials we long / to forget we ever sold our souls to own... but nothing scares me more / than the stranger at my door who i failed / to give shelter, time, and worth

everybody knows - sigrid everybody knows that it’s coming apart / take one last look at this sacred heart before it blows

closing in - ruelle i used to see in color; now it’s just a wave of gray / i feel it pull me under, drowning in the disarray

for dewey —

all i’ve ever known - original cast of hadestown all i’ve ever known is how to hold my own / but now i wanna hold you too / you take me in your arms, and suddenly there’s sunlight all around me / everything bright and warm and shining like it never did before / and for a moment i forget / just how dark and cold it gets

salvation - gabrielle aplin you are the avalanche one world away / my make-believing while i’m wide awake / just a trick of light to bring me back around again... i never meant to fall for you, but i was buried underneath / and all that i could see was white

chasing cars - the wind and the wave i don’t quite know how to say how i feel / those three words are said too much, they’re not enough... forget what we’re told / before we get too old / show me a garden that’s bursting into life

flood - the goo goo dolls (ft. sydney sierota) i wanna see what you see in me and never let you down... i had a dream you were next to me, i woke up calling your name / can you still feel my love? / i wanna be something you can touch; you’re moving fast, but i’m catching up / no, don’t slow down, my love

21 days - scott helman if a cardboard castle is all we have love, we could make it sweet / i wanna live with you in a cardboard castle / i know it won’t last but neither will we

this love - taylor swift clear blue water, hide tide came and brought you in... skies grew darker, currents swept you out again / and you were just gone and gone, gone and gone... been losing grip on sinking ships, you showed up just in time

running after you - matthew mole we’ll come back home, we’ll come back home someday / but right now we are called to see a place / where you and i will change the world we know / anywhere that i’m with you is home

for beatrice —

light - sleeping at last may these words be the first to find your ears / the world is brighter than the sun now that you’re here... i’ll give you everything i have, i’ll teach you everything i know... i will soften every edge, i’ll the hold the world to its best / and i’ll do better / with every heartbeat i have left i will defend your every breath

look after you - aron wright when you get knocked down and you’ve had enough / oh, i’ll be there to dust you off / when you don’t know what you’re gonna do / i will look after you

you were born - cloud cult oh my precious, oh my love / when they come to take me i will hold you from above / i don’t know why we’re here, and i don’t know how / but i’m here with you now, i am here with you now

it’s quiet uptown - kelly clarkson there are moments that the words don’t reach / there is suffering too terrible to name / you hold your child as tight as you can, then push away the unimaginable

when i’m with you - jj heller when i see you and you’re smiling, how my heart aches / so full it is about to break... i could never count all the ways that you change me, baby

forest fire - brighton oh, i hope you know / that you’re my home / but now i’m lost, so lost... i keep imagining those flames that did rise and blackened up the sky

safe inside - james arthur ‘cause i worry about you the whole night / don’t repeat my mistakes / i won’t sleep until you’re safe inside... is it time to let go now you’re older

for n.y.c. —

where do we go from here? - ruelle there’s no place to call our own, like a drifting haze we roam / where do we go from here? where do we go from here?

leave the light on - overcoats i may break down if i let you look at me / now you see me, now you don’t / going, going fast as i can... what if i don’t make it home? / you’re not there, and the light’s not on

i’ll be good - jaymes young for all the innocent things that i doubt / for all the bruises i’ve caused, and the tears / for all the things i’ve done all these years / for all the sparks that i stomped out / for all the perfect things i doubt / i’ll be good, i’ll be good / and i’ll love the world like i should

high hopes - kodaline when it all comes to an end, but the world keeps spinning around / and in my dreams i meet the ghosts of all the people who’ve come and gone / memories, they seem to show up so quick but they leave you far too soon / naïve, i was just staring at the barrel of a gun

in our bedroom after the war - stars listen, the birds sing / listen, the bells ring / all the living are dead, and the dead are living / the war is over and we are beginning... we won, or we think we did / when you went away, you were just a kid / and if you lost it all, and you lost it / well, we’ll still be there when your war is over

resolution - matt corby you said don’t lie so i made the truth / seemed like a lie to even you / control your fear, it’s clear / that you do not know where you’re going to... turn around, put it down and see / that this is really the place to be / i’m not you, nor you me / but we’re both moving steady

we don’t eat - james vincent mcmorrow there’s nothing to mention, and nothing has changed / still, i’d rather be working at something than praying for the rain / so i wander on until someone else is saved... have i been good to you at all? oh, i’m so tired of playing these games / we’d just be running down the same old lines, the same old stories / of breathless trains and worn-down glories / houses burning, worlds that turn on their own

for o. —

meadows - wild child low tide but rising fast, we’ll all die so nothing lasts / all i know is that you make me laugh babe / so i’ll go down with you

the night we met - lord huron take me back to the night we met / and then i can tell myself what the hell i’m supposed to do / and then i can tell myself not to ride along with you / i had all and then most of you, some and now none of you... i don’t know what i’m supposed to do / haunted by the ghost of you

say something - alex & sierra it was over my head; i know nothing at all / i will stumble and fall / i’m still learning to love, just starting to crawl / say something, i’m giving up on you / i’m sorry that i couldn’t get to you

silhouettes - of monsters and men it’s hard letting go / i’m finally at peace, but it feels wrong... there’s nothing that i’d take back / but it’s hard to say there’s nothing i regret

no fight left - jj heller there is no fight left on the inside / but maybe that’s where i should be / i’ve given up trying, i’m giving it all to you

thistle & weeds - mumford & sons i begged you to hear me, there’s more than flesh and bones / let the dead bury their dead, they will come out in droves / but take the spade from my hands and fill in the holes you’ve made... plant your hope with good seeds, don’t cover yourself with thistle and weeds

you’re somebody else - flora cash well, you look like yourself but you’re somebody else / only it ain’t on the surface / well, you talk like yourself - no, i hear someone else, though / now you’re making me nervous

End of Year Wrap-Up 24/12/2018

Happy Merry to all you readers!

I’ve had a great year but all us music fans have had an even better one! Streaming services mean that now more than ever we can experience the musical output from all corners of the globe (though overwhelmingly the English-speaking parts of it) to understand different points of view, learn of the goings on in other parts of the world and most importantly indulge ourselves in a bit of a boogie. All the moods, genres and feels you could think of are out there, so over the holiday period perhaps try and listen to something new. Who knows it might break the tension with that younger/older relative round the xmas table when you find they also happen to like k-pop/jazz-funk/grindcore or at the very least you can bicker about the tragedy of the current album charts (Greatest Showman: 21 weeks!). To aid you in your quest for knowledge/excitement/small-talk I have spent almost 30 minutes curating a best-of for both albums and singles in the year of 2018. 

(NB even with my album-a-day policy, there’s no way I can get through everything I want to within the 365, so if your fave appears ignored, let it be known that I probably haven’t heard it yet. The full list of everything I’ve listened to this year is at the bottom)

Run the Trap’s Top 25 Producer Collaborations Of 2018 | SoundCloud Playlist

25. A-Trak & Falcons – Ride For Me (feat. Young Thug & 24hrs)

Fool’s Gold Records has been home to some of the most monumental records of all time but none as historic as A-Trak and Falcons‘ collaborative single “Ride For Me“. The forward-thinking production on this track perfectly vibes with the dynamic hip-hop combination of Young Thug and rising rapper 24hrs. To put it simply, this collaboration bangs.

24. QUIX & Vincent – Hero (feat. David Shane)

Trap wizards QUIX and Vincent collided to bring forward an intense record that is the definition of a heater. “Hero” has made its rotation through countless DJ sets around the world with a presence that is unparalleled. The hard-hitting trap banger brings forth the best of both these talented producers.

23. SLANDER X Crankdat – Kneel Before Me (ft. Asking Alexandria)

SLANDER had a massive year between their The Headbangers Ball EP and collaborations alongside SAYMYNAME, WAVEDASH, and Seven Lions. One of their most monstrous collaborations to date enlisted rising trap star Crankdat and English rock band Asking Alexandria for the electronic-rock banger the world desperately needed. “Kneel Before Me” is a manic dubstep collaboration that opens the portal to hell. Brutal and gnarly, SLANDER and Crankdat wreaked havoc with this collab that will live on to conquer DJ sets for years to come.

22. Zeds Dead X DNMO – We Could Be Kings (ft. Tzar)

Since the inception of Zeds Deads‘ Deadbeats label, the bass duo have continuously shined a spotlight on major up and comers. Amidst a slew of collaborations with the likes of Jauz, Snails, and 1000Volts, Zeds Dead tapped rising UK producer DNMO for an exceptional banger. “We Could Be Kings” is the bass-pop anthem the world desperately needed and is a true collaboration that brings out the best in each of these producers.

21. A-Trak & YehMe2 – Prayer Hands

A-Trak and YehMe2 teamed up for a massive DJ weapon that has a cemented place in house history. As part of their collaborative Skat Men EP out via Fool’s Gold Records, “Prayer Hands” delivered an unorthodox soundscape ready to take on any club scene. “Prayer Hands” not only solidified YehMe2 as one of the most dynamic producers in the game but also showcased his creativity when it comes to collaboration.

20. Slushii – There x2 (ft. Marshmello)

Marshmello and Slushii are two of the biggest names in the game and their collaborative single “There x2” was absolutely magical. Vibrant and beautifully produced, the combination of producers crafted a whimsical, emo-scented future bass track. Crazed with massive dance vibes, this collaboration slaps.

19. Snails & Adventure Club – Follow Me (ft. Sara Diamond)

Snails hyped his SLIMEAGEDDON EP with one of the hottest collaborations of the year. Teaming up with Adventure Club, “Follow Me” combined gut-wrenching bass drops with heart-breaking melodies of epic proportions. Together, Snails and Adventure Club created a smash single that fires on all cylinders and will live on to crush any dubstep or trap set.

18. Louis The Child & Whethan – Chop It Up

Louis The Child and Whethan each had a phenomenal year filled with bubbly future bass originals. Before embarking on a European tour together, the trio of producers joined forces to launch their gooey collaborative Honey mixtape with “Chop It Up” being a memorable favorite. With “Chop It Up”, Louis The Child and Whethan revived their future bass roots and their creativity when it comes to instrumentals, which we rarely see now from each of the producers.

17. SNBRN & Autograf – Move All Night (ft. Kole)

Autograf and SNBRN are two of the biggest names in house music so when they finally teamed up for “Move All Night“, it was almost shocking that it was the first time they collaborated. “Move All Night” certainly lived up to its name with its groove-riddled rhythms and bouncy melodies. The foursome’s robust, club-ready production brought the summer vibes to a chilly October. Together, Autograf and SNBRN created an infectious track that is the definition of dance-worthy.

16. Benny Blanco & Calvin Harris

Benny Blanco emerged this year as one of the hottest producers to make a name for himself. After spending years working behind the scenes, Blanco stepped out into the spotlight and enlisted a slew of the year’s top acts for his debut album Friends Keep Secrets. Amidst his pop and hip-hop crossovers, Benny Blanco coerced Calvin Harris into co-producing and singing on their collaborative house single “I Found You“. It was the first time Harris performed vocals on a track since his 2016 single “My Way”, which makes “I Found You” historic in its own right.

15. Ekali & Medasin – Forever (ft. Elohim)

This year, Ekali and Medasin teamed up for an unforgettable single “Forever” that soared with its whimsical future bass soundscape. Playful and shimmering, the Elohim featured track unearthed a sound we’ve never heard from either producer but is completely awe-inspiring. There’s a softness and elegance in this collaboration that separates it from their catalogs, not to mention it’s absolutely breathtaking.

14. Wolfgang Gartner X K?d – Banshee

Nothing this year was more diverse than the collaborative single between k?d and Wolfgang Gartner. With two incredibly unique styles, k?d and Wolfgang Gartner found a way to combine their respective hard-hitting trap and electrifying electro-house signatures for “Banshee“. With “Banshee”, k?d and Wolfgang Gartner truly collaborated and meshed their styles into one serious heater.

13. REZZ X 1788-L – H E X

REZZ and 1788-L‘s collaboration has become a trap staple. Garnering the most plays across her Certain Kind Of Magic album, “H E X” easily stands out with its dynamic and wild soundscape. Dark and magical, “H E X” checks off every box from intense and unrelenting to powerful and dominating. This collaboration not only cemented REZZ as one of the top producers in the game but also boosted 1788-L to new heights. This collaboration will be talked about for years to come.

12. NGHTMRE & Big Gigantic – Like That

WAVEDASH, and Pell and he still had room to add another stunner to the list. The sign of a good collaboration comes from mixing two unique sounds and that’s exactly what you get from NGHTMRE’s latest single with Big Gigantic. “Like That” pushes the bounds by mixing NGHTMRE’s signature trap with Big Gigantic’s iconic jazz-infused hip-hop.

11. Excision X Illenium – Gold (Stupid Love)

Excision and Illenium teamed up for a crushing banger that absolutely blew us away. “Gold (Stupid Love)” brought together two dynamic forces on one track and the end product was exceptional. There’s nothing tame about this collaboration, and rightfully so. It’s explosive and fearless in all the right ways and will go down in history as one of the most multi-dimensional dubstep tracks.

10. Seven Lions, SLANDER, & Dabin – First Time (ft. Dylan Matthew)

The three-way collaboration between Seven Lions, SLANDER, and Dabin can only be described as an anthemic fireball. “First Time” has already garnered over three million streams on Spotify in just two months and for good reason. The trio of producers found a way to combine their distinctive styles on one track so seamlessly that it’s almost surprising how many people are on this track.

9. Party Favor X Baauer – MDR

Party Favor and Baauer unleashed a high-energy banger that has run rampant through the trap world. “MDR” is grimy and explosive and is one of those tracks that just goes off from the get-go. Party Favor and Baauer brought forth a powerful original filled with layers of creativity that just oozes brilliance. This track was made to bang in any club or festival set.

8. Boombox Cartel X Flosstradamus – ID | Stream

Trap legends Boombox Cartel and Flosstradamus teamed up for a smash heater that was absolutely historic. “ID” builds into a wild and iconic whirlwind of trap and bass that is absolutely phenomenal. The combination of Boombox Cartel and Flosstradamus is truly a match made in heaven.

7. Alison Wonderland X SLUMBERJACK – Sometimes Love

Alison Wonderland‘s wondrous sophomore album Awake was one of the biggest highlights of the year. Amidst the future bass bangers and vulnerable pop-tinged vocals, Alison Wonderland linked with fellow Aussies SLUMBERJACK for “Sometimes Love”. Their collaboration was the dark and dangerous trap banger that lifted her album to new heights.

6. Ekali & ZHU – Blame

Ekali had a major year filled with collaborations alongside Medasin, SLUMBERJACK, and TYNAN, and capped it off with his highly-anticipated Crystal Eyes EP out via OWSLA. But he kicked off the year with one his most monstrous collaborations to date. For “Blame“, Ekali teamed up with ZHU, and together they crafted an unimaginable banger. It’s incredible that two producers with such distinctive styles were able to combine their future trap and house signatures in one flawless record and it’s positively inspiring.

5. Cashmere Cat, Major Lazer & Tory Lanez – Miss You

Cashmere Cat and Major Lazer‘s single “Miss You” was monumental, not only because the duo crafted a gorgeous track but also because it was the first time that the two collaborated. Both have been major forces driving the evolution of electronic music into mainstream pop, bridging a relationship between A-list pop vocalists with top-notch producers to create a new world of dance-pop music. “Miss You” was a staple of that burgeoning genre this year.

4. The Chainsmokers & NGHTMRE – Save Yourself

The Chainsmokers and NGHTMRE teased their collaborative single “Save Yourself” in their respective Ultra and EDC Las Vegas sets before giving it a proper release in August. When it finally dropped, ears erupted from the dangerous blast of bass and heavy-hitting dubstep. Unlike The Chainsmokers’ typical pop-centric originals, NGHTMRE kicked them into gear to turn up on monumental levels. This collaboration definitely will not be forgotten anytime soon.

3. What So Not & Skrillex – Goh (feat. KLP)

Two years ago, Skrillex and What So Not teamed up with RL Grime for an unimaginable collaboration “Waiting”. While this may not be their first collaboration, Skrillex’s appearance on What So Not’s Not All The Beautiful Things album was definitely one of the highlights of the year. Their collaborative single “Goh” resurrects their signature trap vibes with crisp, modern production that will make your heart soar. Amidst the slew of melodic future bass tracks, “Goh” is the most hard-hitting on What So Not’s debut album and stands to be an iconic thriller for years to come.

2. Jauz & DJ Snake – Gassed Up

Stacking two superstars on one collaboration is a difficult task but Jauz and DJ Snake handled it phenomenally. Their double-time bass-house banger “Gassed Up” more than lived up to its name and set on a warpath to destroy dancefloors everywhere. Jauz and DJ Snake geared up to create an absolutely savage original that even described as electrifying, hard-hitting, and earth-shattering is still saying too little.

1. JOYRYDE & SKRILLEX – AGEN WIDA

JOYRYDE and Skrillex‘s “AGEN WIDA” was one of the biggest, most anticipated collaborations of the year. The monumental track not only revived bass-house, but also brought the duo of legends back into the forefront after a quiet year. The wild banger is one that will surely be played for years to come.
