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...

This Week on coldplaysucks — July 26–August 2
Read more . . . →August started and the genres split the week dead even — DnB, dubstep, and house each pulled seven posts, trance and trap held their corners with three apiece, and the rest landed across a wide sprawl of electronic that runs from future bass to big room to whatever Slow Magic is doing. Thirty-six tracks, no clear winner. Good week. Track of the Week Ninajirachi, Porter Robinson - WannaCry Named after the ransomware, and yes, that’s the kind of title choice that tells you exactly what you’re getting. Sugar-rush synths and pitched vocals that land as actual emotion, kept weird by...

Read more . . . →Thirty-seven tracks landed across two drops this week, and house walked off with the belt: eleven of them, more than any other genre by a comfortable margin. Dubstep came in swinging right behind it, and drum and bass turned up smaller in number but bigger in impact — the two loudest records of the week both came out of that camp. If you skipped a day you missed a lot, so here’s the part worth catching up on. Track of the Week Camo & Krooked & Mefjus - Redemption Three of the most technical people in drum and bass got...
