As the sun blazes its trail across the sky, the season of sundresses, flip-flops, and ice-cold cocktails is officially here. With it comes a soundtrack like no other - the top dance songs of summer 2023. HEAT 2023 episode has curated an eclectic selection that will take you on a wild ride through House Music, Tech House, Future House, and Progressive House.
Let's kick things off with a blast from the past - Rihanna's bop "Don't Stop The Music", reincarnated by ATCG. This version brings new vigor to a beloved classic, infusing it with an electrifying House beat that commands you to get moving.
Next up, Tim Hidgem transports us back to the 80s with his reinterpretation of George Kranz's industrial marvel, "Din Daa Daa". Hidgem adds a fresh twist to the original, turning it into an irresistible summer anthem.
Who can resist the allure of 90s techno, especially when it's the iconic "It's A Fine Day" by Miss Jane? Cloonee takes on the challenge of modernizing this classic, resulting in "Fine Night", a track that's as tantalizing as a starlit summer evening. There's also an excellent version called "A Fine Anthem" by Skrillex x Boys Noize which will be making an apperance on next week's Peak Hour release.
And that's not all. The EDM maestro Zedd breathes new life into "Where You Are" extending the life of this massive hit by John Summitt & Hayla from the spring. The remix strikes the perfect balance between the charm of the original and Zedd's signature electro-infused style.
As the sun reaches its zenith, we're whisked away down under with Australia's Midnight Dance Party and their sun-soaked anthem, "Sunshine". This tune is quintessential summer - warm, carefree, and absolutely irresistible.
When it comes to top dance songs of summer 2023, nothing captures the season's vibrancy better than the high-energy beats from Gabry Ponte & Hosanna's "One By One" which samples the 90s the Deep Dish remix of the House Music classic "Make the World Go 'Round", Nathan Dawe, Joel Corry & Ella Henderson's "0800 Heaven", and Calvin Harris' collaboration with Sam Smith, "Desire". These are the tracks you'll find yourself blasting on repeat as the temperatures rise.
Switch Disco throws a curveball our way with their energetic mashup "React" and Inpetto's remix of "Toca Me" by Fragma. The result? A floor-filling masterpiece. Meanwhile, Dirty Disco reinvents Troy Sivan's uber-gay "Rush", taking this sultry hit and reimagining it as an anthemic Big Room House tune.

The current top dance song on the Beatport dance chart, "Nanana" by Peggy Gou, also makes the cut. The fiery remix by dEVOLVE x Smith & Sorren turns this hit into a sure-fire dance floor scorcher.
The rhythms of Brazil spill through the speakers with SOFI TUKKER's "Jacaré", a sensual dance track that pairs perfectly with Axel Paerel's "Makeba". The latter stands out with its unique flavor and multiple versions by different artists making waves in numerous playlists.
Kim Petras returns to the scene with a bang, teaming up with Nicki Minaj for "Alone". They skillfully sample Alice Deejay's 90s hit "Better Off Alone", bringing a touch of nostalgia to this club-ready banger.
Finally, we would be remiss to not include Tiesto's remix of the playful 90s dance classic "Barbie Girl" by Aqua because of the massive success of the self-titled movie based on the Mattel doll. This remix keeps the spirit of the original alive but cranks up the intensity for a festival-worthy version.
Ultimately, there is no filler here. The HEAT 2023 podcast delivers an unforgettable summer soundtrack, skillfully blending classics and contemporary hits. The result? A playlist as diverse and exciting as summer itself. So, let the top dance songs of summer 2023 be the beat to your summer parties - tune in, turn it up, and let the music move you.
