Here’s a List of Generational EDM Anthems That Turned 10 In 2022
It’s 2012. “Levels” is blasting through every house party. Big room house music is dominating the club circuit. Avicii, Skrillex and Pretty Lights are headlining Ultra Music Festival. Life is good. That year, the EDM bubble looked more like a 5 Gum commercial, a mind-bending maelstrom of fantastical electronic music festivals and totemic tracks.

And while the EDM ecosystem is still thriving, it’s markedly different from those days, when DJs and producers pumped out hits like a broken printer. 2012 gave rise to a slew of generational dance anthems, which are now relics of a bygone era.

Tommy Trash Wrote His New Song After an All-Night Ayahuasca Trip: Listen
Thanks to an extended—and deeply contemplative—hiatus from the industry, it’s clear that Tommy Trash has reawakened his creative spirit. The renowned DJ’s new single “Jaguwawa,” a breezy deep house bop featuring his own voice, is a testament to that renewed sense of self. Trash wrote track, he said, after an all-night ayahuasca trip, emerging from the meditative experience with the lyrics top of mind. “I wrote this song after a night-long ayahuasca trip, where I was having dinner with a few alien pals, before they invited me to go up into their spaceship,” Trash said in a press statement. “The next day I wrote down ‘Go up, go up in the light,’ which would later become the lyrics for ‘Jaguwawa.’ I never intended to sing this s...
