ALOK Reimagines Empire of the Sun's Global Hit, 'Alive'
If you’re a fan of melodic bass, we can all agree these five tracks are timeless classics that have helped define the genre as a whole:
1. “Rush Over Me” – Seven Lions
A collaboration with Illenium, Said the Sky, and HALIENE, “Rush Over Me” is an emotional rollercoaster of euphoric drops and cry-worthy lyrics. It’s a staple of melodic bass that puts you in your feels while making you want to head bang to its moving melodic drops.
2. “Superhuman” – SLANDER
This iconic track featuring Eric Leva is a Slander classic! Their ability to capture such emotion with lyrics and euphoric bass is insane in this track. The uplifting chorus and production have made “Superhuman” an absolute melodic bass classic.
3. “Borderline” – Tove Styrke (Vanic Remix)
Vanic’s remix of Tove Styrke’s “Borderline” refreshes the original into a melodic bass masterpiece. It carries such catchy vocals and gives you that “free-spirited” energy the whole way through. For that reason alone, this song has become a staple for melodic bass lovers.
4. “Crawl Outta Love” – Illenium
No melodic bass list is complete without at least one Illenium song. “Crawl Outta Love” has that perfect balance of hauntingly beautiful lyrics with such quality sounds and drops, making it one of his most known and iconic releases to date.
5. “Shelter” – Porter Robinson & Madeon
A perfect mix of melodic bass and future pop, “Shelter” is an unforgettable collaboration between Porter and Madeon. It radiates nostalgic 2015-2017 vibes with uplifting sounds that have pinned it as a classic melodic bass tune.
Honorable Mention: “Potions” – SLANDER
A personal favorite, “Potions.” This song never fails to make you think of that one person every time it plays. Its meaningful lyrics and soft melodic drops make it a go-to song for moments when you just want to get lost in the music.
