And there you have it a serving of some (not to many) EDM tracks and a few other musical themes. Today's post is most likely one of a kind as I included some non - electronic music here. So lets talk why these tracks hit this list.
Alone Together is amazing because the vocals, melody and beat fully play off each other.I love the chorus and use of ambient vocal snippets, the chorus-like background singing is awesome.
Bumblebee takes almost all of what I love in House and combines it, an amazing beat strong melodic sequences and a sick glitchy breakdown.
Collide has great vocal snippets, a wonderful beat and a superb melody. The buildups and vocals lend a huge benefit to the track, making it very much in the category of both melodic but also a banger.
Not a usual rap or hip hop track Jay Z and Justin Timberlake's Holy Grail definitely hit the jackpot for me they managed to bring in pop-like sequences and impressive rap as well.The way the song progresses and switches between melodies is outstanding.
On the other side of the coin Other Side Of Love is chill and relies upon great vocals and an exquisite melody. Sean Paul has definitely done well with this track, a very great pop single.
And finally we end on an electronic note, specifically the well recognized note of Armin Van Buuren. A well known track This Is What It Feels Like brings together brilliant vocals with Armin's distinguished trance melodies. The track should probably be already on or in your music folder or playlist, even if your not a huge fan of electronic music.

Voila, there we have it a post with more non-electronic music than there is electronic. Its a once in a year event which will likely not happen in the near or far future. So yeah enjoy those great non-electronic tracks and I'll see you on thursday.

N0ZTRA out, listen well.
