Best of dance 2007

Back from vacation and what better to start the year with a "best of 2007" post.

2007 whas actually a quite good year for dance with electro making it big and giving other dance-genres some attention as well.

I've already posted on some of the best albums from last year and of course tracks from those albums are also to find on my "best of"-list. Tracks like "In Your Eyes" and "A Life To Live" by The Attic, "To You" by Basic Element and "Wanna Fly?", "Falling", "Nobody Wants To Try" and "Point Of No Return" by DJ Encore.

Among the many excellent electro tracks released last year David Guetta's "Love Is Gone" has to be one of the best!



In the more popish end of the dance scene newcommers Lucky Twice made a fantastic debut with "Lucky"! Why it only hit it of big time in Spain and France is beyond me.

Giving Lucky Twice a strong competition are Romanian Akcent who did it again with the amazing "King Of Disco"!

Also worth to mention are danish Infernal's "I Won't Be Crying":



Finally though maybe not at the absolutely top of my list I have to mention two songs I'm sure will be played by dj's around the world for many years to come. The previously mentioned "Rise Up" by Yves Larock and following the hit-formula of "Love Generation", "World, Hold On" and "Rock This Party" the new one by Bob Sinclar "Sound Of Freedom":

Rise up and rock the generation

Well, it's not only gonna be about the classics. So here's a new one I've been enjoying lately:



Yves Larock "Rise Up" a track that have gotten some attention from the dj's all over Europe but haven't been quite the chart-topper it deserves. Only Italy and southern Europe have really embraced it and down there it's probably a big candidate for being the club-favorite of the year.

They are actually calling it the "Love Generation" (by Bob Sinclar) of 2007 ... Well it's not going to be the instant classic "Love Generation" proved to be and will never have the same crossover mainstream appeal, but I'm quite shure that in ten years you will still once in a while hear "Rise Up" being played at clubs around the World.
