This Week’s Standout Dance Releases

A roundup of the most compelling new tracks, albums and industry news shaping dance music right now.

Cercle has announced a one-night DJ performance with Tame Impala in Mexico City tied to the band’s new dance-influenced album Deadbeat. Veteran DJ Lee Burridge offers a reflective clip from his upcoming documentary Sound of a Dream, which premieres at London’s Doc’n Roll Film Festival on October 25. Meanwhile, Skepta and Hannah Laing are among the speakers added to this month’s ADE lineup in Amsterdam.

In festival news, Okeechobee returns after a three-year break with headliners including Griz, T-Pain, The Lumineers and Fisher. Burning Man has revealed its 2026 theme, and Sylvan Esso removed their catalogue from Spotify, citing objections to how the platform deploys revenue and investments they find incompatible with their values.

On the artist front, we caught up with rising talent Jigitz — our September dance rookie of the month — compiled a list of the 50 greatest house tracks ever, and spoke with Tinashe and Disco Lines about their international hit “No Broke Boys.”

Below are the most notable dance releases and projects that landed this week.

Fred again.. & Amyl and The Sniffers — “you’re a star”

Fred again.. kicks off his ambitious 10-songs-in-10-weeks USB002 project with a collaboration featuring Aussie punk outfit Amyl and The Sniffers. The track folds gritty rock energy into a jungle-tinged afterhours groove — primed for late-night sets. Fred’s USB002 run continues with his Glasgow show, where he’s slated to appear with Yousuke Yukimatsu and HAAi.

Chris Lake, Skrillex & Anita B Queen — “La Noche”

Chris Lake continues his hot streak with “La Noche,” a collaboration with Skrillex and Argentine-born Anita B Queen. The track blends gritty tech-house production with bold, direct vocals from Anita B Queen, delivering a sinister-but-danceable energy that walks the line between menace and club-ready fun. This is Skrillex’s first single-cycle release following his April album F*CK U SKRILLEX YOU THINK UR ANDY WARHOL BUT UR NOT!! <3.

Honey Dijon & Chlöe — “The Nightlife”

Honey Dijon pairs with Chlöe Bailey for “The Nightlife,” an elegant R&B-tinged house cut built around Chlöe’s warm, commanding vocal performance. The song glides on plush production and promises strong club and radio appeal. A visual accompaniment for the single is scheduled to arrive on October 9.
