Release: Out Now, you can stream it or buy it here Title: ‘Sleeping On My Own Again’ (Reimagined) With having performed at ADE, Tomorrowland, Ultra, Storm and Jungle, it’ll be no surprise when we see this budding young artist take the stands when festivals come back to life. Carta’s releases have seen the likes of many international labels - within 2021, he released ‘Big Beat’ on W&W’s Rave Culture label and ‘Chengdu’ on Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike’s Smash The House label and today we’re featuring his latest release with Laidback Luke for a festival banger titled ‘Kong' via Revealed Recordings. This Hong Kong-born artist honed his foundations in the UK with a groovy garage sound, then progressed further in Shanghai as the electronic scene was blossoming. Making a name for himself in China and now in the rest of the globe, Carta aka Giorgio Carta has established himself in the electronic world at high speed with his first milestone of being the first Chinese artist to make it to DJ Mag‘s Top 100 at a young age of 21, and also as the first Chinese-based producer signed to Spinnin’ Records.

If the pandemic didn’t exist, we’re sure this track would headline all of Asia’s festivals in a heartbeat - the true definition of a dance anthem paired with a helluva rail riding. The Barong Family held no restraints this year with Hotel Barong in play along with Juyen Sebulba and Sihk – let’s say the whole world was peanut butter and jealous they couldn’t physically be part of the bass-filled party.
This rising star has been breaking out of the Indonesian hip hop scene and is signed on Empire, a hip hop label that has released tracks by Snoop Dogg, Iggy Azalea, Kendrick Lamar and more. No stranger to the decks but from a different genre - hip hop - Yellow Claw welcome Indonesian Ramengvrl to the bass family. Yellow Claw teamed up with Indonesia’s Sihk, rapper Ramengvrl and Juyen Sebulba from one half of the duo Psycho Boys Club for a headbanging festival banger ‘Bassgod’. We start off the list with a clear cut banger also, a lucky coincidence it came out on the brink of 2021. We’re hoping that next year comes with a revival of throbbing beats and strobe lights that would accompany these tracks, but for now, let’s take a look into Mixmag Asia’s selects for dance floor anthems above ground.Īrtist: Juyen Sebulba, Sihk, Yellow Claw, Ramengvrl Our 21 picks come from all over Asia as we see returning talents as well as new faces. This year gifts us with festival bangers that make us reminisce about those good ol’ days (can we say that yet?), EDM-infused pop favourites, to remixes that give us something that borderlines what we call above ground. With that being said, however, dull the physical scene may be, the virtual world has not stopped its pump as it fuels us with a myriad of dance music that keeps us on our feet.
There is hope, much hope that we will soon be able to follow in the careful footsteps of the western hemisphere and we will be reunited again on the dance floors or festival grounds. With festival life coming back in certain parts of the globe (here in Asia, we lived vicariously through them), Asia has seen an unfortunate dull return with clubs still closed and no festivals in sight. Here we are nearing the end of another year, partially indoors with a glimmer to the life that once filled our nights with amnesia filled stories and just good times overall.
