EDMTunes’ Top 100 Tracks of 2019

As we step into 2020 and a new decade, it’s certainly worth taking a closer look at the last ten years in the music world. 2019 is the close to a decade that has arguably been the best in EDM history and in some ways, for electronic music in general.

Many tracks, artists, genres, events and trends have shaped the scene into how we know it today. But, we will keep all these other important factors for other articles. Here, we focus on the essence of it all – the music – by answering the question: What are the tracks that marked 2019, and the end of the 2010s?

Our team at EDMTunes has compiled what we consider to be the top 100 tracks of the year. It is worth noting that more than 10,000 tracks are released every week on Beatport, in addition to many others dropped on Soundcloud, Bandcamp, and as vinyl-only. This makes the task of putting together an objective, and all-satisfying ranking quite impossible. There are so many other tracks outside of this list that we love and groove to.

In this compilation, we took into consideration the quality of the production of course, but we also include the most symbolic and iconic tracks that represent the year 2019.

Without further ado, with the artists in alphabetical order, we present our selection of the best tracks of 2019 along with links to their respective coverage articles. Additionally, you can enjoy them all in our dedicated EDMTunes Spotify Playlist available down below.

Looking Towards 2020

2019 has undoubtedly been one of the best years for Tech-house and for Techno in the 2010s, and it doesn’t seem to be stopping just yet. The year also witnessed an EDM comeback, fueled mostly by the SHM reunion, Tomorrowland’s 15th anniversary and many beautiful EDM new tracks. In the last year of this Electronic-Music-golden-decade, the releases lived up to the standards and kept the bar high.

Today we walk towards the 2020s with a lot of uncertainty about the artists, genres, events, and trends that will shape the dancefloor. But one thing is certain – electronic music is here to stay.

Let us know what you think of our list, and if there’s any other tracks you think also deserve to be part of it. Don’t forget to check out our other end-of-the-year and decade editorials. Happy New Year, and cheers to 2020 and a new phase for electronic music growth.
