Cool NCS tracks: A collection of hype bangers (1–10)
SamuraiJim Yosef
Jim Yosef is a music producer from Scotland, known for his strengths in progressive house and commercial house.
Among his works, the track I especially recommend is Samurai.
He isn’t just a house musician—most of his songs fall into the future bass genre.
This track is one of those as well.
Despite the title Samurai, it doesn’t feature a traditional Japanese-style melody; instead, it’s crafted with an energetic, futuristic sound.
Sky HighElektronomia
Electronomia is a channel that enjoys immense popularity on YouTube.
They upload their own music and also perform under the same name as an artist.
Among Electronomia’s works, the track I especially recommend is Sky High.
It’s a familiar piece in Japan and is used by various explanatory or commentary-style YouTube channels.
Its impactful, addictive synthesizers are outstanding—definitely give it a listen.
EnergyElektronomia
Electronomia is a mysterious British artist whose true identity remains unknown.
Strictly speaking, it’s both an artist name and the name of a YouTube channel.
Among the many tracks released by Electronomia—who is also very popular on NCS—the one I especially recommend is “Energy.” It’s a melodious EDM piece that conveys a delicate atmosphere rather than a flashy one.
Since it’s used as background music on various YouTube channels, many of you may already be familiar with it.
ShineSpektrem
Spectrum is a music producer gaining attention in the house music scene.
He debuted on NCS in 2013 and released “Shine,” which, in fact, is the most popular track in the entire NCS catalog.
As proof, it has racked up over 150 million views on YouTube.
The song’s appeal, I believe, lies in its energetic yet seamless structure.
It’s surprisingly rare to find EDM with not a single dull moment, so be sure to check it out.
InvincibleDEAF KEV
Def Kev, a German music producer who enjoys overwhelming popularity on NCS, is constantly in the spotlight for his glitch hop- and electro house–driven sound.
Among his works, the track I especially recommend is Invincible.
It’s the third most-played song on NCS and delivers a stylish EDM finish.
Since it’s often used on channels that explain manga and anime, many of you have probably heard it before.
On & On (feat. Daniel Levi)Cartoon
Cartoon is a music producer trio from Estonia.
They’ve gained popularity for their sound that blends drum and bass and drumstep into future bass.
Among their works, the track I especially recommend is On & On (feat.
Daniel Levi).
It’s one of the most popular releases on NCS, boasting over 400 million plays.
While it’s not a heavy track, its powerful, melodic vibe is well worth a listen!
Light It Up (feat. Jex)Robin Hustin x TobiMorrow
The track “Light It Up (feat.
Jex),” created by music producer Tobimorrow—who began attracting attention around 2018—and Luxembourg-born producer Robin Hustin.
It’s one of the more popular releases on NCS, so some of you may already know it.
The real charm of this song is, without a doubt, the impact of the drop.
The structure may be orthodox, but the heavy sound that effortlessly clears the bar leading into the drop is nothing short of overwhelming.
