EDM.com’s Best of 2020: Songs

This year, the team at EDM.com is proud to publish four installments of “Best of 2020” coverage: Industry Leaders, Performances, Music Producers, and Songs. When COVID-19 stomped on the sandcastles of the live music industry and its countless venues, the streaming world mushroomed due to a massive influx of new music. With nowhere to share their art but the blue light of our devices, producers turned to streaming platforms and released new music at a breakneck pace in 2020. With so much new music offered by EDM’s artist community, it would be unfair to its diverse range of creators to publish a nebulous blanket list of the year’s top songs. So to highlight the best songs of the year, we’ve chosen ten of the most popular sub-genres of dance music and recognized...

Since we’ve taken a break from saving outfits for special occasions, we’re re-discovering the joy of dressing up for ourselves. Now, more than ever, it’s important to find the simple bliss of everyday moments, and one of the ways we’re doing that is through our personal style. There are a few key pieces in my wardrobe — mainly dresses and jewellery — that I find myself wearing when I need a little help staying positive, and I got in touch with five of my favourite fashion editors to share the clothing and accessories that are lifting their moods in lockdown.

5 Handbag Styles That Defined 2020 and Are Worth Investing in This Autumn

This year is teaching fashion to slow down, and it’s about time. Where every season we look forward to pretty new bags and accessories, we are starting to shift our focus to lasting pieces that transcend the seasonal turnover of trends.

Handbags, like shoe trends, usually begin from the bottom up. A pioneering independent designer creates a piece that speaks to the zeitgeist — like By Far’s ’90s-inspired Rachel baguette shoulder bag — and because of fashion’s loose copyright laws, that sell-out design inspires high-fashion houses and is then dup...
