This Week on coldplaysucks: Oct 4 - Oct 11
Read more . . . →Sixty drops this week. House and drum and bass split the top of the pile between them, dubstep brought the heavy artillery, and somehow a pair of budget Bluetooth earbuds is sitting at number four on the monthly chart. I genuinely have no complaints. The Charts Isam Hadjih feat. Ormella - In My Dreams: holding the top for a 4th week, completely unmoved. Listen → TLM feat. Merely - Summer Jam: locked at two for 5 weeks running. Listen → Seven Lions & Kill The Noise - I Need: steady at three, 4 weeks and counting. Listen → Cheap Earbuds...

This Week on coldplaysucks: Sep 27 - Oct 4
Read more . . . →Forty tracks in seven days. House, DnB and dubstep split the bill almost evenly, which never happens, and somehow none of the three genres blinked first. If you fell behind this week, start with the chart and work down. The Charts Isam Hadjih feat. Ormella - In My Dreams: climbed to the top after three weeks on the board, nudging Summer Jam aside. Listen → TLM feat. Merely - Summer Jam: held the crown for weeks, now sliding to second. Still the track people keep coming back to. Listen → Seven Lions & Kill The Noise - I Need: locked...

This Week on coldplaysucks: Sept 20-27
Read more . . . →Thirty-seven new posts this week, which is frankly excessive and I regret nothing. House and drum and bass split the week almost down the middle, trance showed up with a couple of proper anthems, and Amelie Lens reminded everyone that techno still exists and is still terrifying. A lot to get through, so let’s go. The Charts TLM feat. Merely - Summer Jam: holding the top spot for a 3rd week running. Listen → Isam Hadjih feat. Ormella - In My Dreams: locked in at #2 for a 2nd week. Listen → Seven Lions & Kill The Noise - I...

This Week on coldplaysucks: Sep 13 - 20
Read more . . . →Thirty-eight posts this week. DnB took the biggest share, Amelie Lens showed up twice, Zeds Dead showed up twice, and a deep house track from March is sitting at the top of the weekly chart because this website has excellent long-term taste. Five new entries on the monthly board, five knocked off. Turnover season. The Charts TLM feat. Merely - Summer Jam: holding the top for a second straight week. Listen → Isam Hadjih feat. Ormella - In My Dreams: new on the chart and already running the weekly board. Listen → Dimension & Subsonic - Ghost Town: new entry....

This Week on coldplaysucks: Sept 6-13
Read more . . . →Forty-one tracks posted, a completely new top 10, and every artist who held a chart position last month got bounced. House led the volume, DnB kept pace, dubstep stayed heavy, and a trance track from June is somehow running the board as summer refuses to end. The Charts Full reset. Every track on last month’s chart dropped off and ten new entries took their places. Nobody held, nobody climbed. They all got replaced. TLM feat. Merely - Summer Jam: new on the chart and sitting at the top, three months after posting. Listen → Born On Road & P Money...

This Week on coldplaysucks: Aug 30 – Sep 6
Read more . . . →Thirty-seven tracks across two drops this week. House and drum and bass fought for dominance, dubstep crashed uninvited, and somebody dug up a Moby sample from 1999 and made it hit all over again. Big week. Track of the Week Everything But The Girl - Run A Red Light (Logistics Remix) Tracey Thorn’s voice is unmistakable inside two bars, and handing another EBTG song to a dance producer is a small piece of poetry if you know the history: “Missing” got turned into a global smash by a house remix in the nineties, basically writing the whole playbook. Logistics, a...

This Week on coldplaysucks: Aug 23-30
Read more . . . →Forty-nine tracks crossed the blog this week. DnB and house tied for the biggest pile, dubstep brought the property damage, and trance arrived with six records and zero shame. End of August, apparently everybody had something to say. Track of the Week BOP - Rumination I’ve gone back to this one more than anything else, and it isn’t close. Deep liquid dnb built from a warm pad, a lonely piano figure, and a rolling break that breathes more than it hits. The gaps between the notes are where the whole track lives. I’ve had it on for late-night writing three...

This Week on coldplaysucks: Aug 17–23
Read more . . . →Thirty-two tracks across two drops this week, and the loudest theme is the past showing up uninvited. NGHTMRE got Jordin Sparks back to re-sing “No Air,” Inner City’s “Good Life” got a trance rebuild, Yomanda’s Y2K anthem came back rerecorded, and Skrillex’s “Bangarang” picked up yet another edit. DnB took the biggest share again at eight posts, but dubstep and house both brought heat. Track of the Week IMANU & A Girl Named Sue - All U Need IMANU keeps operating on a frequency nobody else in drum and bass can tune into. “All U Need” opens delicate and human,...

This Week on coldplaysucks — Aug 10–16
Read more . . . →Eighteen tracks dropped and every single one landed on Saturday. DnB brought actual names, dubstep got genuinely strange in the right direction, and two separate DENIAL cuts proved that techno built on one bullied note can be the scariest thing in any room. Quiet week on paper. Loud week on speakers. Track of the Week Andy C - Come Together (ft. Mali Koa) Andy C made a vocal drum and bass record that sounds like it was designed to detonate forty thousand people at dusk, and it does not miss. Mali Koa sings it like a real vocalist, not a...

This Week on coldplaysucks — Aug 2–9
Read more . . . →Fifty-six tracks this week. House ran the board, DnB stayed relentless, and dubstep had an actual moment courtesy of some people I assumed had retired. A lot of ground to cover and most of it was worth covering, which is its own problem for a digest. Track of the Week Nero & Taiki Nulight - We’re Not Alone (ft. Emily Makis) Nero making dubstep again in 2026. That sentence alone would have been enough for this slot. “Welcome Reality” was the record half of us blew speakers to in the early 2010s, and hearing them lean back into that weight...
