John Summit returns with his second studio album, "CTRL ESCAPE", a project that further solidifies his rapid rise within the global dance music scene. Following the success of Comfort In Chaos (2024), Summit appears more refined and creatively focused, delivering a body of work that effortlessly bridges underground credibility with mainstream appeal. The album feels like a sonic “escape", capturing the intensity and emotional pull of modern club culture.

On "CTRL ESCAPE", Summit expands his signature tech-house sound by incorporating more melodic and atmospheric elements, adding depth and versatility to the project. Tracks like "Cyanide" and "Time With You", already stand out as highlights, balancing peak-time energy with more introspective moments. At the same time, collaborations with a diverse range of artists enhance the album’s dynamic, making it accessible to a wider audience without losing its club-driven identity.

The album’s creation is closely tied to Summit’s experience as a touring artist, with many tracks tested live on major stages before being finalized in the studio. This process gives "CTRL ESCAPE" a distinctly immersive quality, translating the raw energy of the dancefloor into a cohesive listening experience. The result is an album that works equally well in club settings and personal listening environments.

The album consists of 13 tracks, showcasing the full spectrum of his sound:

STATUS: AWAY
SHADES OF BLUE (w/ Devault, Julia Church)
SATA (w/ Rohaan)
WITH ME (w/ Julia Wolf)
DON’T BELIEVE IT (w/ Absolutely)
LIGHTS GO OUT
MESS W/ ME (w/ Nija)
CHICA 305 (w/ Feid)
ALL THE TIME (w/ The Chainsmokers, Ilsey)
OOO
SHADOWS (w/ LAVINIA)
TIME WITH YOU (w/ KILIMANJARO)
CYANIDE (w/ Absolutely)

With CTRL ESCAPE, John Summit cements his position as one of the most influential artists in contemporary electronic music, delivering an album that not only follows current trends but actively helps shape the future of the global club scene.

24:T14be,

Ο John Summit επιστρέφει με το δεύτερο studio άλμπουμ του, “CTRL ESCAPE”, ένα project που επιβεβαιώνει ακόμη περισσότερο τη ραγδαία άνοδό του στη διεθνή dance σκηνή. Μετά την επιτυχία του Comfort In Chaos (2024), ο Summit εμφανίζεται πιο ώριμος και καλλιτεχνικά συγκεντρωμένος, παρουσιάζοντας ένα έργο που γεφυρώνει με φυσικό τρόπο το underground κύρος με τη mainstream απήχηση. Το άλμπουμ λειτουργεί σαν μια ηχητική “απόδραση”, αποτυπώνοντας την ένταση και τη συναισθηματική δύναμη της σύγχρονης club κουλτούρας.

Στο “CTRL ESCAPE”, ο Summit επεκτείνει το χαρακτηριστικό του tech-house ύφος, ενσωματώνοντας πιο μελωδικά και ατμοσφαιρικά στοιχεία που προσθέτουν βάθος και ευελιξία στο αποτέλεσμα. Tracks όπως τα “Cyanide” και “Time With You” ξεχωρίζουν ήδη ως highlights, ισορροπώντας ανάμεσα σε peak-time ενέργεια και πιο εσωτερικές, συναισθηματικές στιγμές. Παράλληλα, οι συνεργασίες με ένα ευρύ φάσμα καλλιτεχνών ενισχύουν τη δυναμική του άλμπουμ, κάνοντάς το πιο προσιτό σε μεγαλύτερο κοινό χωρίς να χάνει την club ταυτότητά του.

Η δημιουργία του άλμπουμ συνδέεται άμεσα με την εμπειρία του Summit ως touring artist, καθώς πολλά από τα κομμάτια δοκιμάστηκαν ζωντανά σε μεγάλα stages πριν ολοκληρωθούν στο studio. Αυτή η διαδικασία χαρίζει στο “CTRL ESCAPE” έναν έντονα βιωματικό χαρακτήρα, μεταφέροντας την ακατέργαστη ενέργεια του dancefloor σε μια ενιαία και συνεκτική ακρόαση. Το αποτέλεσμα είναι ένα άλμπουμ που λειτουργεί εξίσου καλά τόσο σε club περιβάλλον όσο και σε προσωπική ακρόαση.

Το άλμπουμ αποτελείται από 13 κομμάτια, παρουσιάζοντας όλο το εύρος του ήχου του :

1. STATUS: AWAY
2. SHADES OF BLUE (w/ Devault, Julia Church)
3. SATA (w/ Rohaan)
4. WITH ME (w/ Julia Wolf)
5. DON’T BELIEVE IT (w/ Absolutely)
6. LIGHTS GO OUT
7. MESS W/ ME (w/ Nija)
8. CHICA 305 (w/ Feid)
9. ALL THE TIME (w/ The Chainsmokers, Ilsey)
10. OOO
11. SHADOWS (w/ LAVINIA)
12. TIME WITH YOU (w/ KILIMANJARO)
13. CYANIDE (w/ Absolutely)

Με το CTRL ESCAPE, ο John Summit εδραιώνει τη θέση του ως ένας από τους πιο επιδραστικούς καλλιτέχνες της σύγχρονης ηλεκτρονικής μουσικής, παραδίδοντας ένα άλμπουμ που δεν ακολουθεί απλώς τις τάσεις, αλλά συμβάλλει ενεργά στη διαμόρφωση του μέλλοντος της παγκόσμιας club σκηνής.

25:T15c8,

There are nights that start with simply going out for music and end up meaning something much more. A festival, a club, a big open air event. Thousands of people who don’t know each other, suddenly standing under the same lights, listening to the same tracks and moving to the same rhythm. And somewhere in all of that, a stranger can become part of your group, a group can become a group of friends, and a random meeting can continue long after the last track has played.

It’s not just a nice idea. In psychology, the term “collective effervescence” is used to describe the intense feeling of connection that can emerge when many people take part in the same experience at the same time. A study published in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, based on four studies and 789 participants, examined this connection in the context of live music events. The findings showed that this sense of collective connection was associated with greater enjoyment and a stronger sense of meaning during the event, as well as increased happiness one week later.

And maybe the most interesting part is that you don’t even need to talk to someone for that connection to begin. Research has found that moving together in sync can make people feel socially closer, even when they are complete strangers. In one experiment involving a silent disco, participants who moved to the same rhythm reported a stronger sense of connection than those who moved out of sync. Suddenly, the dancefloor starts to make a little more sense. Sometimes, the music is already doing the introduction for you.

There is also something physical behind that feeling. Studies on synchronized movement and group bonding have found that dancing together can be associated with an increased pain threshold and stronger feelings of connection between people. Researchers have suggested that the release of endorphins may play a role in this process. It doesn’t mean that every person you dance with is suddenly your best friend, of course. But it does help explain why sharing physical effort, rhythm and emotion with other people can make a night feel much more intense and much more memorable.

And maybe this explains why the people we meet on the dancefloor can sometimes feel different from the people we meet anywhere else. You don’t need to start with a conversation, shared interests or a particular reason to connect. Sometimes all it takes is a drop, a smile, a high-five or that look that says, “What the hell was that?” A shared musical experience creates a different kind of communication, where for a few hours, everyone seems to belong to the same thing.

This is also how our own community at Dancetoday has grown. Not only through music and content, but mainly through the people we have met along the way. The events, festivals and moments we have shared with our community have become one of the ways Dancetoday built its own identity and brought people together. People who may have met for the first time at an event, danced together, shared a track or simply a moment, and eventually became part of a group that keeps growing. Because a community is not built only through posts and stories. It is built where music becomes a real experience.

Maybe that’s why electronic music has its own way of creating memories. You might not always remember which track was playing at that exact moment. But you might remember who was standing next to you when the drop hit. And sometimes, the person you randomly met in a crowd of strangers becomes the person who is there with you at the next festival, the next trip, the next big night.

Because the dancefloor is not simply a place where we listen to music. It is one of the few places where, even for a few hours, thousands of different lives move to the same rhythm. And some of those lives may continue moving together long after the final beat.

26:T37c2,

From an extended Chris Stassy session to a dedicated Tiësto trance set, these are eleven picks from the dancetoday crew and community - and why we want them happen in Greece.

A set lands in the group chat. Someone names the artist they would travel for. Before long, the conversation turns to Greece: imagine having that night here!

So, together with our community, the dancetoday crew has put together a wishlist of artists and specific sets we would love to experience on Greek dancefloors. These eleven selections open a two-part series, with room for returns, new encounters and different sides of familiar names. Of course, the order is not a ranking, and each choice comes down to the music, the setting and what would make the experience worth showing up for.

MAU P - The Breakthrough Has Become a Headline

Mau P has reached the point where his name can be the reason for the night. Baddest Behaviour returned to Pacha Ibiza for a second season in 2026, evidence of a career growing beyond the initial impact of “Drugs From Amsterdam”. He now has both recognisable records and a party identity people can follow.

That makes him a really appealing choice for Greece. His sound gives an audience something immediate to connect with: heavy bass, cheeky vocal hooks and the reggae sample at the centre of “Merther”. We see him fitting a substantial club date or an outdoor house event where familiar tracks bring people together and the selection keeps them moving. This is a chance to catch a headliner while his world is still expanding.

CHRIS STASSY - When the Crowd Becomes the Vocal

The hype around Chris Stassy has a particularly revealing soundtrack: “Breather”, his collaboration with S.A.M. At all Stassy's appearances, the crowd sings along to its melody - despite the track having no vocals - and doesn't stop dancing. That says something about the devotion surrounding the artist formerly known as Chris Stassy. Alos, his October 2026 USS dates in Manchester are already listed as sold out.

A crowd singing instrumental melodies of an artist tells you more about a following than a follower count. That is the appeal for Greece: a following that could turn a house night into a shared occasion, built around musical details fans already care about. An extended set would be our choice, allowing the rolling basslines and patient transitions to earn that collective release.

CARL COX - The Name That Connects Generations

Carl Cox carries the kind of stature that can make a booking feel significant across generations. He keeps giving people reasons to return: his 2026 UNVRS residency spans house and techno, including all-night sessions. In a recent Pollstar interview, he explained how the room guides his next record, including when to ease from harder techno towards groove or melody.

For a Greek event, that combination matters. The reputation gives people a reason to gather; his responsiveness gives the gathering somewhere to go. We can imagine experienced ravers and younger clubbers finding common ground in a substantial DJ set. Cox’s history brings weight to the poster, but the attraction is what he can do with the dancefloor in front of him now. Oh yes, oh yes!

RÜFÜS DU SOL - The Scale of a Shared Feeling

RÜFÜS DU SOL belong here because their music gives people something to carry into a room with them: a lyric, a memory, a melody that has stayed around longer than expected. Of course, “Innerbloom” makes that shared feeling explicit. And RÜFÜS DU SOL have taken that connection to an extraordinary scale. Their Inhale/Exhale tour generated $158 million and sold 1.7 million tickets, becoming the highest-grossing electronic tour in Billboard Boxscore history!

Of course, the format matters. A full live show centres the band performing its songs, with vocals and instruments, while a DJ set opens a different conversation through the records they select. Altough we would prefer a full live show, we would welcome either in Greece, with the billing clear about the experience. Their music can make a crowded night feel strangely personal... and that emotional connection is what we would want to share, whether through the songs themselves or their club influences.

KETTAMA - A Rave Favourite Growing Bigger

Being dancetoday’s 2025 Breakthrough Artist Of The Year, KETTAMA’s rise has reached well beyond a promising run of club tracks. His Archangel album was accompanied by a sold-out Brixton Academy headline show, while 2026 brought a nine-week Amnesia residency. So, there is a clear sense of an artist whose audience is growing with the music.

“Yosemite”, with Interplanetary Criminal, captures the appeal: forceful rhythms meeting the kind of melody people attach themselves to. His blend of house, trance and rave influences gives us a strong case for a late festival slot in Greece, especially for listeners who want physical intensity with an emotional payoff. KETTAMA makes the big chord change feel as important as the kick drum. Catching him at this stage would mean meeting a growing movement while its excitement still feels immediate.

MICHAEL BIBI - A Following You Could Build a Night Around

Michael Bibi’s pull is visible in the events built around him. His 2024 One Life show at Finsbury Park drew 45.000 people, and the promoter listed his 2026 London date on the Thames as sold out. Through his own shows and Solid Grooves, he has built a following around a recognisable way of partying.

And his music explains why we would want that here. “Mobile Groove” turns a Nokia ringtone into club material, while “MYSTERY OF RAW” with KETTAMA samples Wu-Tang Clan. For Greece, an extended headline set in an indoor venue would make most sense to us, as it could let fans gather around a more club setting and a shared taste, and give newcomers an accessible way in. Bibi gives fans a party they can feel part of before they even walk in.

TIËSTO - Back to the Trance Roots

A dedicated Tiësto trance set is essential to this selection. For listeners whose relationship with electronic music grew through his early records and sets, it carries genuine nostalgia. For younger fans, it offers a chance to experience the musical identity behind so much of his reputation. And this is already happening: Dreamstate 2025, Creamfields 2026, “Bring Me To Life” featuring FORS and Tiësto In Concert being back again after over 20 years make the return to trance a current story.

Hearing this side of Tiësto in Greece feels especially appealing while he is actively exploring it again. What we would love in Greece is the space for those melodies to develope. Older listeners might arrive with years of memories, while younger ones could encounter that side of his music at full scale for the first time. The set would not need to be classics-only. Give the older records and newer material a coherent place together, and the appeal becomes a shared experience across generations.

PROSPA - The Momentum Has an Album Behind It

Prospa now have a bigger musical statement behind the buzz. Their debut album, Free Your Mind, arrived on CircoLoco Records in June 2026, bringing their rave background into a fuller collection of house grooves, organ chords and expressive vocals. It gives listeners more reasons to connect with the duo than a single standout release.

We see a good fit for Greece in that mixture of club credibility and songs people can take home. The disco guitar and vocal warmth of “This Rhythm” featuring RAHH, show how easily their music can invite people in. An open-air evening moving into darkness feels like a setting worth imagining a DJ set that could connect those familiar moments with their wider selections. Prospa offer the excitement of an act growing into a bigger stage while keeping the pleasure of the party close.

DOM DOLLA - House Music With a Bigger Reach

Dom Dolla is now taking house records into stadiums. His sold-out Allianz Stadium debut in Sydney in December 2025 has been followed by a Marvel Stadium booking for September 24, 2026. That is a substantial platform for an artist whose appeal still starts with records built to make people dance. “Dreamin” featuring Daya, helps explain the crossover: a simple, memorable melody and a vocal with an emotional story.

For a Greek festival, we see the potential to bring regular house listeners around the world together with people arriving through the songs. Dom Dolla can make the hook an invitation into the rest of the set, while even a simple melody can bring someone to the dancefloor before they know anything about the DJ. His inclusion is about that widening reach, and the prospect of a headline performance that feels welcoming without losing its club foundations.

HALŌ - The Three Musketeers of Progressive

Third Party, DubVision and Matisse & Sadko: our Three Musketeers of mainstage progressive house. As HALŌ, these three acts bring together established fan connections, a shared musical language and a new reason to pay attention. Their debut release, “Live Again”, arrived on Armada on September 18, giving the project music of its own to build around.

As we put it in our recent article, progressive never left. And now, with HALŌ, progressive is live again. For Greek fans drawn to those big melodies and moments of collective release, this could be a festival date to plan around. The attraction is hearing familiar catalogues feed into something new, with three acts committed to the same feeling. For a Greek mainstage, that mix of beloved records and new music feels worth backing.

JOSEPH CAPRIATI B2B SOSA - A Pairing With Its Own Pull

Joseph Capriati B2B SOSA has the appeal of an occasion built around a specific partnership. Capriati brings the stature of a selector whose Metamorfosi nights connect house and techno, while SOSA brings a newer generation’s minimal and deep-tech approach, represented on this year’s Just Like That EP. Their different positions in the scene make the meeting interesting.

However, there is also another recent evidence behind the idea: the pair closed the Steel Yard at Creamfields 2026, with their performance being among its weekend highlights. For Greece, this B2B could give followers of both artists a reason to gather, with curiosity about the exchange adding to the draw. Of course, we would want an extended set for the grooves to deepen and the pressure to change. The combination itself should be the reason to attend.

Your Turn

These are the first eleven selections from our crew and community, and Part 2 will bring more into the conversation. The setting matters as much as the name: a longer club session, a live show or a particular musical direction can change the whole appeal.

Which of these would you most want to see in Greece, and what kind of set would make it worth the wait?

27:T5d6,CHRIS STASSY is a producer and label boss who has spent the past decade building a world around his own approach to house music. What began in the underground has grown into a global project spanning music, events, a label and a community, still rooted in the clubs and culture that shaped him. In August 2026, Chris entered a new phase under the name CHRIS STASSY. One letter separates it from the name before, but little else changes - same mind, same music, same vibe. A continuation rather than a reset. That world took shape through Up The Stuss, the label he founded in 2020 and now one of house music's most recognisable independent imprints, home to his own productions and a wider roster of forward-thinking artists. The same instincts define Chris behind the decks, from underground institutions and 10-hour extended sets to Awakenings, Timewarp, Coachella, Pukkelpop and Alexandra Palace, with Ibiza central through Circoloco, Paradise and Solid Grooves. His productions and remixes - including his #1 flip of Moby's 'Go' - reflect an artist refining his own musical language rather than following a formula. In 2025 he launched USS, his own event series, alongside N.A.M.E., his free party concept. In 2026 came his debut album 'Lost, Found & Forgotten...', with headline shows beyond the club at the Eiffel Tower and Alexandra Palace, and his first AV show 'Linger' at Lowlands and Creamfields. Now, as CHRIS STASSY, the project moves forward with the same foundations intact.28:T52a,A name that resonates thoughts of quality and fresh flavours, Michael Bibi’s take on today's current electronic music environment has seen him flourish into a highly accomplished producer and DJ. The UK based new kid has stamped his mark with a string of musical successes, carving out and establishing a distinct signature sound that has translated into support from some of the industry’s biggest names, whilst his longstanding and instinctive love for the party provides a continued source of motivation and dedication. Bibi’s raw passion for music has been with him since childhood. His father, a touring artist within the Blues and Jazz scene, provided his first insight into the world of music, with Michael accompanying him on tour and exposing his eyes and ears to the scenes never-ending influences - and today it is these influences that he draws upon to combine with his slick, up-front and personal take upon house music. As of recent, Michael has been making a name for himself with his unique production style and off-the-wall vocals, releasing material on the likes of Snatch!, VIVa, Lost Records, and of course his own labels Solid Grooves and SG Raw. With a stock of unreleased productions and global dates on the horizon, look out for Michael Bibi coming to share a party a moment with you soon!29:T41f,Tiësto has consistently redefined, reshaped, and reignited electronic music, impacting popular culture in the process. Renowned for multiplatinum international anthems, history-making performances, and boundless creativity, it would be impossible to imagine the genre without his influence. The GRAMMY® Award-winning international icon effectively pioneered the “Las Vegas DJ residency” as we know it, emerged as “the first DJ to perform at the Olympics,” and delivered smashes across the last three decades. His career sales have surpassed 40 million albums, he has earned eight Billboard Hot 100 hits, amassed over 30 billion streams, and collected more than a dozen RIAA certifications for multiplatinum, platinum, and gold singles. This creative season has seen him triumphantly revisit the melodic deep house sound he helped innovate, bringing his career full circle. Enshrined as one of the most influential and inventive DJ/producers of all time, Tiësto continues to break boundaries and elevate electronic music to unparalleled heights.2a:T2836,

With major international headliners and prominent artist names like Paul Kalkbrenner, Argy, Adriatique, Ben Klock, Maceo Plex and Indira Paganotto among this year’s bookings, Reworks has plenty to attract anyone planning a few days in Thessaloniki. But its ⁠completed programme, announced on 8 September, also gives us good reasons to look beyond the most immediately recognisable names. From the opening hours of its afternoon events to the final stretches of its club sessions, Greek artists have been placed throughout the five-day programme, proving that Reworks continues a relationship with the city’s electronic music community that ⁠began in 2005. And this year is another chance to hear just how varied those artists - and the scene they come from - really are.

19 Artists, Many Directions

The festival’s announcement highlights 19 Greek or Greece-based acts: ISON, Momery, Athineos, Agape, VaJohn, Myrophora, Penny Morado, Modal Cat, Pinelopi, Cnthia, Decø, Thravsma, Nases Morur, Low F Signal, Vertical Slope, Bellas, MayDay, Kiki Botonaki and Dest.

Their presence stretches across different venues, stages and moments of the festival rather than being limited to a single local showcase. More importantly, these names do not represent one uniform “Greek sound”. House, melodic electronics, dub techno, acid, breaks and the deeper or more forceful ends of techno all have a place within the programme.

Inside the Greek Lineup

ISON connects much of that history. A founding member of NON and one of the people behind Reworks, he has helped develop the environment in which many of these encounters take place. Behind the decks, his references stretch across house, techno and Detroit, giving his sets a range that is difficult to reduce to one genre. His Saturday-night appearance in BLOCK33’s Warehouse, directly before Modeselektor, is worth catching for that breadth alone.

Momery offer another perspective on the relationship between Thessaloniki and the wider electronic circuit. The duo’s melodic techno has travelled through releases such as “Ophelia,” selected by Mind Against for the first release on HABITAT. It is a useful introduction to their balance of atmosphere, melody and dancefloor tension. On Friday, they appear at LABattoir’s Atrium directly before Adriatique, making their set a natural choice for listeners already drawn to that side of the programme.

There is reason to arrive before them, too. Myrophora opens the Atrium with a musical vocabulary that moves through progressive and melodic house, techno influences and occasional pop references. Her set gives the afternoon a more open starting point before Momery and Adriatique gradually take it elsewhere. Rather than treating the earlier slot as waiting time, the sequence works better when experienced from the beginning.

The programme becomes particularly interesting when artists with different instincts share the booth. Agape’s background in DIY parties informs selections moving between acid, house, electro and indie dance. VaJohn brings techno and breaks influences, alongside experience rooted in Thessaloniki’s Roxy Club. Their joint Friday-night appearance at BLOCK33’s Club offers a chance to hear where those approaches meet.

Local club experience also runs through Saturday’s pairing of Pinelopi and Penny Morado. Pinelopi’s approach centres on hypnotic progression and controlled intensity, while Penny Morado’s rolling techno retains a strong interest in groove, informed by earlier listening across soul, hip-hop and funk. Their 17:30–19:15 set at the Atrium gives them enough time to establish a direction together. If the later techno names are already part of your plans, this pairing deserves to be part of the afternoon as well.

Elsewhere, Thravsma and Nases Morur bring their shared connection to Ergotherapy to LABattoir’s Air stage. Both work with techno built through atmosphere, repetition and gradually developing tension, while Thravsma’s move to Berlin adds another thread between the Greek underground and scenes beyond it. Later, the ALEMAO connection appears through Decø and Cnthia, whose acid, trance and groove-led techno influences take over BLOCK33’s Club after Anetha. Their closing placement is a useful reminder that discovering local artists can sometimes mean staying until the final set, not only arriving early.

For a fuller picture of the artists and info about them, stages and set times across all five days, explore the full list of artist and the official Reworks 2026 programme.

Beyond the Booth

Reworks’ role is not limited to assembling a DJ lineup. Making its Greek debut on Friday, The Talk (AV Show) brings together Heith, Günseli Yalcinkaya and Andrea Belosi in a performance inspired by the Antikythera Mechanism. Combining live music, spoken word and audiovisual design, the project explores the ways technology influences perception and the stories through which we understand reality. Its development with Nuits sonores and Terraforma through TIMES also shows how festivals can participate in creating new work, rather than only presenting it once it is finished.

What Comes After

Being included in a festival of this scale can place an artist in front of new listeners. What follows (new releases, return bookings, collaborations and an audience that stays interested) determines whether that moment develops into something more lasting.

2b:T35c4,

From Fred again.. to KI/KI’s “5 HOURS”, these are thirteen more picks from the dancetoday crew and community - and the nights we would love to live in Greece.

Some names make you check the date before you check anything else. Others become even more tempting when you see who is joining them behind the decks, or what kind of set they are playing. Following Part 1, our crew and community’s wishlist continues with thirteen selections. The order is not a ranking, and previous Greek appearances do not rule anyone out. We are thinking about the artists, partnerships and formats that would give us a reason to make plans around the music.

FRED AGAIN.. - From Athens Pop-Ups to a Bigger Dream

Fred again.. has a special place in the hearts of the dancetoday crew and community. “Delilah (pull me out of this)” is part of why: songs that feel personal, even when thousands share them. Greece has already experienced that closeness through his intimate September 2024 show at Lake Vouliagmeni, previewing his album ten days, and his Latraac pop-up parties in Athens in May 2025. So, those small settings make us want a full live show here even more.

For an artist who sold out the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, a Greek concert on that scale once felt like a distant wish to us. Now, imagine Fred at Kallimarmaro. The iconic setting and room for his full production could make this a date Greek fans plan their year around, with fans travelling from abroad, too. We would love to see Athens become the destination for one of those Fred nights people wish they had been part of.

SKRILLEX - Nine Grammys, and Still Making Us Curious

Skrillex has nine Grammy wins, including “Rumble” with Fred again.. and Flowdan in 2024. But we hear his genius in the records: from “Bangarang” and his “Cinema” remix to the very different sound of “Rumble”, he keeps making unfamiliar ideas feel instantly recognisable. His 2026 collaboration with Chase & Status, “Essa Tá Quente”, keeps that curiosity alive.

A late Greek festival headline set would be our choice. His name has weight across generations, with earlier fans bringing memories and newer listeners arriving through recent collaborations. We would want the full range of his selections. With Skrillex, the reputation draws you in, but the curiosity about what he will do next makes you want to stay.

CHASE & STATUS - Drum & Bass With the Pull of a Headliner

Chase & Status won the 2024 BRIT Producer of the Year award, with records that explain their reach. “Baddadan”, made with Bou, and the UK Number One “BACKBONE” with Stormzy have taken their music beyond the regular drum & bass audience. A sold-out UK arena tour and their Milton Keynes National Bowl event show the scale they can command.

For Greece, we would want a festival headline DJ set, with the sound system and space that their bass-heavy music deserves. Their name could bring dedicated bass listeners together, while those hits give newcomers a reason to join them. The attraction is drum & bass presented as the main event, by an act with the stature to carry it.

STEVE ANGELLO B2B SEBASTIAN INGROSSO - A Shared History Worth Gathering For

We are huge Swedish House Mafia fans at dancetoday, so Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso have a special place in our hearts, too. Their connection goes back further than the group: childhood friends who were sharing records before Daft Punk helped send them into the studio together as teenagers. From Buy Now to their Tomorrowland B2B sets, that friendship has become a musical partnership worth seeing together.

For Greece, we would love a festival mainstage set that brings that history into the present. The attachment to the iconic “Don’t You Worry Child”, "Reload", "Greyhound" and their wider catalogues gives people a reason to gather, while their club selections offer another side of the pair. Two friends who helped shape our love of this music, sharing the decks here... that is a night we would really want to be part of.

JOHN SUMMIT - House Music on an Arena Scale

John Summit’s upcoming CTRL ESCAPE tour includes major North American arenas and a December booking at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. That is a substantial step for an artist whose appeal starts with “Where You Are” with HAYLA. Alongside Experts Only, he now has both familiar records and a party identity people can follow.

We would picture a Greek festival headline set, bringing together listeners arriving through the songs and those following his club selections. A melodic vocal can invite people in, then the rest of the set gives them more to discover. We would love to catch him while that audience is growing.

MAX STYLER B2B LAYTON GIORDANI - Two Names On Their Way Up

Max Styler and Layton Giordani are building identities people can follow beyond individual releases. Max Styler’s 2026 I Don’t Think I Can Stop EP puts more music behind the attention, on his own Nu Moda label. Layton Giordani has MADMINDS and “When It Kicks” with Green Velvet, a record supported by names including John Summit and Solomun.

We would love an extended indoor B2B in Greece. Styler’s house hooks and Giordani’s heavier house-and-techno range could bring their listeners into the same room. Two names on the rise, sharing the decks—that is a night we would want to catch here.

MEDUZA B2B JAMES HYPE - Two Hitmakers, One OUR HOUSE Night

“Piece Of Your Heart” and “Ferrari” give MEDUZA and James Hype immediate recognition. OUR HOUSE gives them something to follow together: a shared party now in its fourth Ibiza year. Their recorded Amsterdam B2B also shows this partnership in the format we would want here.

An outdoor house stage in Greece feels like a strong fit. MEDUZA’s melodic appeal and Hype’s fast, hands-on mixing offer different attractions within the same set. Familiar records could bring people in, while the pairing gives the headline slot its own character. We would love a Greek OUR HOUSE-style night with this B2B at its centre.

MARCO CAROLA B2B FRANKY RIZARDO - Music On Weight Meets FLOW Momentum

Marco Carola brings a name people already associate with a whole night of partying. Music On gives that following somewhere to gather, while Franky Rizardo’s first FLOW residency at Pacha in 2026 shows his own party identity growing. Its August closing was listed as sold out, with records such as “Shinjuku” giving fans another reason to follow him.

For Greece, an extended outdoor house set would be our choice. Carola’s established pull meets an artist whose own parties are gaining ground. We would want a night built around the pair, with the groove and time to make the partnership the main attraction.

FISHER B2B CHRIS LAKE - A Party People Already Recognise

FISHER’s OUT 2 LUNCH welcomed more than 40,000 people in Australia in 2025, while Chris Lake released his debut album Chemistry that year. Together, their Under Construction project has a party identity of its own, documented in their three-hour-plus Hollywood Boulevard set. “Losing It” and “Turn Off The Lights” give each artist a recognisable connection.

For Greece, we would want a big outdoor house event centred on a long B2B. FISHER brings a larger-than-life party presence; Lake brings a catalogue club listeners have followed for years. Their shared concept gives followers of both something to gather around. We would love the full Under Construction experience here.

CASSIAN B2B KEVIN DE VRIES - A Pairing With Real Mainstage Weight

Cassian brings Grammy-winning mix work on RÜFÜS DU SOL’s “Alive”, while his pairing with Kevin de Vries already has a Tomorrowland mainstage set and a UNVRS set behind it. Their 2025 performance and shared “Payback” remix (of the Steve Angello and Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman original) give us a clear reason to want both names together.

We would picture a Greek festival headline slot after dark. That “Payback” connection could bring listeners with progressive-house memories alongside fans following their melodic techno direction today. Their shared music makes this a pairing worth seeing together.

HARDWELL - Spaceman Memories With a Harder Sound

Hardwell’s two DJ Mag Number One titles give his name real festival weight. And the attachment to his music is still visible: “Spaceman” placed eighth in the community-voted Tomorrowland Top 1000 in 2026. His harder REBELS NEVER DIE direction and “Bang On The Drums” with Bassjackers give that history a current musical context.

For Greece, we would want a festival mainstage headline set with production that suits his sound. The attraction is hearing a name associated with years of festival memories bring his harder music to that same scale. We would love a night where those older connections and his current direction make sense together.

MARLON HOFFSTADT - Daddy Trance Is Reaching Bigger Stages

Marlon Hoffstadt’s 2026 includes a Coachella Sahara debut and an Ultra B2B with Armin van Buuren. DJ Daddy Trance is reaching bigger stages, with “It’s That Time” giving fans something familiar to gather around. His August album Das Ist Daddy adds more music behind the growing attention.

We would love a late indoor rave in Greece built around his name. The fast rhythms, direct hooks and playful trance references give it a clear character, with the Armin pairing also giving older trance fans a reason to pay attention. Hoffstadt feels like an artist worth catching while the following and the opportunities are growing together.

KI/KI “5 HOURS” - A Whole Night Worth Commiting To

KI/KI’s rise now includes two upcoming Ziggo Dome “5 HOURS” shows on October 22 and 23, both listed as sold out. The show builds on the production concept she brought to a sold-out London Roundhouse. That is a following prepared to make her the reason for the whole evening.

She has already played Athens, so our wish is about experiencing this particular format here. A dedicated indoor night would be our choice. Also, “5 Mins Of Acid” gives the request a familiar musical connection. Her mix of acid, trance and techno gives the five-hour idea a clear musical identity, so, we would love to see Greek fans gather around that full experience.

Your Turn

These thirteen selections complete our crew and community’s two-part wishlist. Some carry years of memories, others have momentum we would love to catch, and several become especially appealing through a particular partnership or format.

Which would you most want to experience in Greece, and what kind of set would make you plan your night around it?

Label of the Year 2025: Experts Only

In 2025, Experts Only emerged as one of the defining labels of contemporary club culture, solidifying its position at the center of the global house and tech-house movement. Curated by John Summit, the label evolved into far more than a release platform, operating as a complete ecosystem that connects music, community, and live experiences. With a sharp focus on groove, functionality, and authenticity, Experts Only delivered records designed for real club environments, while maintaining a forward-thinking approach that resonated equally with underground audiences and large festival crowds.

Throughout the year, the label hosted an impressive and diverse group of artists who helped shape its sound and identity. Names such as John Summit, Meduza, Camelphat, Cassian, Layton Giordani, SCRIPT, Gorgon City, Kasablanca, Korolova appeared across official releases. At the same time, the label actively supported the next generation by giving rising artists like Devault, Discip, Millero, Fallon and other artists the opportunity to showcase their talent and develop their sound within the Experts Only environment. There were many tracks from the label that gained so much support around the world from artists and fans also, but there were a few that stood out in particular and it was no other than John Summit’s collaboration with Gorgon City featuring Rhys from The Sticks - "Is Everybody Having Fun?" , John Summit’s release with Cloves called "Focus", and Meduza’s release with title "No Sleep". The standout moments of the year regarding track releases for Experts Only were definitely the official releases of John Summit’s remix for the legendary Britney Spears track I Wanna Go and his remix of Silence by Delerium featuring Sarah McLachlan, two iconic tracks that John Summit put his own spin on.

Sarah McLachlan

Experts Only Festival

The launch of the Experts Only Festival marked a defining moment for the label’s evolution from a recording platform into a fully realized cultural brand. The festival took place for the first time in 2025 in New York City, marking a major milestone for the label’s expansion into large-scale live events. Hosted on Randall’s Island, the inaugural edition transformed the venue into a full Experts Only experience, bringing together thousands of fans for a day focused entirely on the label’s sound and culture with artists like John Summit, Green Velvet, Layton Giordani, Kaskade, Pete Tong, Cassian and many more. Experts Only commits that this year's festival will be even bigger and more powerful, building on its debut with an expanded lineup, enhanced production, and an even more immersive experience for fans. Earlier in 2025 label's boss John Summit presented Experts Only at Zamna Festival in Tulum, Mexico for the first time ever, an iconic destination for electronic music lovers.

Why Experts Only is Our Label of the Year

At dancetoday, our intention is to highlight emerging labels that actively support new and talented artists, rather than focusing only on already well established and globally known labels. Within this mindset, Experts Only stood out in 2025 by staying true to the essence of club culture and delivering music with real impact on the dancefloor. The label focused on tracks that genuinely work in club settings, with strong grooves and a clear identity, without chasing short term trends, while also bringing a fresh sound to the global electronic music scene. It became much more than a series of successful releases, it evolved into a solid platform that connected artists, audiences, and live experiences around a unified sound and vision.

At the same time, Experts Only played a key loop role in highlighting and supporting new artists, giving emerging talent the opportunity to grow alongside established names in the scene. With standout releases, global DJ support, and the launch of the Experts Only Festival raising the bar even higher, the label proved that 2025 clearly belonged to Experts Only.

John Summit’s Experts Only Festival Revives Randall’s Island with 50,000 people attending

Two years after Electric Zoo’s last edition, Randall’s Island finally came alive again with the debut of John Summit’s Experts Only Festival. The two day event drew over 50,000 fans and marked a major milestone for Summit, who has dreamed of hosting his own festival since launching his label in 2022.

Running from 3pm to 10pm each day, the festival featured two stages placed at opposite ends of the grounds, with Summit himself closing both nights and surprising fans with extra daytime sets. His performances blended cheeky charm with heartfelt connection, delivering anthems like 'Where You Are', his brand new release 'Crystalized', and 'Shiver' to packed crowds. Another big highlight was when he dropped a new unreleased track ( ID ), no confirmation at the moment if it's by him.

The lineup offered a mix of heavy-hitters and standout performances: Tini Gessler’s driving tech-house, Kasablanca’s explosive live set, and Pete Tong’s seamless selections. Exclusive back2back, Kaskade b2b Cassian and Green Velvet b2b Layton Giordani, fueled serious FOMO online.

Beyond the music, the festival carried a purpose. A portion of every ticket supported LP Giobbi’s FEMME HOUSE, which advocates for equity in dance music. During her set, LP reminded the crowd: “Black queer people created dance music.”

The festival hasn't confirmed yet if it's gonna back for next year but John Summit shared on his social 'Let's do it next year NYC' !
