The Perfect Dance Playlist: 5 GRiZ Songs to Get the Party Started

It’s undeniable that GRiZ has immense range in his discography, and I could write about him and his music forever. From earth-shattering bass to cinematic chord progressions to funky house, it feels like there’s nothing he can’t do. GRiZ is a gift from above, and the world is a better place with his music in it. It’s hard to find anyone to compare him to because GRiZ brings a unique twist to funk music, often fusing genres into explosive drops, with an incredible level of intention behind every small detail. As the year winds down, I wanted to showcase five of my favorite GRiZ songs to dance to. I hope you find something new to love!

“Its All Good”

This track is a reminder that even in the darkest days, everything will work out in the end. The first verse is masterfully produced, gradually introducing new elements that build into an immaculate crescendo. Then comes the drop—pure funky dance vibes, complete with an infectious bassline that’ll keep you grooving all night.

“Gold”

GRiZ and Cherub together is a match made in heaven, and this collab is Exhibit A. The soulful vocals are a vibe from the very start, accompanied by a funky bassline that hits you right in the soul. The groove flows effortlessly, and the drop takes a slower, funkier house approach, driven by a deep bassline that perfectly complements Cherub’s silky vocals. This track is a must-have for any dance playlist.

“Push the Vibe”

One of GRiZ’s most underrated songs, though his discography is packed with gems. This track builds up quickly, delivering a drop that’s a fun cascade of funky notes. It captures the essence of funk while leaning heavily on intricate sound design to elevate the track. Perfect for putting on during a casual run—because you’ll be busting out dance moves on the trail in no time.

“Dtw to Dia (The Travels of Mr. B)”

This track is a shining example of GRiZ’s ability to tell stories through his music. It opens with a gorgeous, drawn-out chord progression that builds suspense as new elements are layered in. The drop is a perfect fusion of bass house and funk house, with a countermelody that comes in and out, adding depth and dimension to the track. A masterpiece of storytelling through sound.

“Crime in the City”

Another underrated gem from GRiZ, this track is a party essential. While GRiZ doesn’t delve into bass house often, this song proves we need more. It features a strong bassline reminiscent of early 2010s sounds, with an energetic bass house drop infused with GRiZ’s signature growls and sound design roaring over the beat. This track is an absolute must for any house head’s playlist!
