What do we think is going to be big next year then? Often the future hits are songs already out so let's speculate. Here are the first songs that come to my mind:
Snakehips - All My Friends [feat. Tinashe & Chance The Rapper] House/RnB production duo Snakehips could be set for their breakthrough, which would also give Tinashe her long overdue first chart hit. Mike Posner - I Took A Pill In Ibiza [SeeB Remix] Yes, the same Mike Posner that made 'Cooler Than Me' a hit 5 years ago. Who knew he'd be set for another potential hit now? Blinkie - Don't Give Up (On Love) Could this finally smash in the new year after lingering around the bottom end of the chart for a while? I hope so, great song. Zara Larsson - Lush Life Zara coming for her second hit? Definitely if this gets pushed, I think. DJ Fresh & High Contrast - How Love Begins [feat. Dizzee Rascal] Seems obvious this will at least chart somewhere, possibly another top 10 for him? Alessia Cara - Here With this being a US top 10 hit and her on the Sound Of list, it seems very likely this will at some point be a hit. |

I Took A Pill In Ibiza reminds me of my flop BJSC entry 'I Want You' by Wrabel. It's a strong remix, wondering how much longer the tropical house sound will continue to be popular though, seeing as a lot of these sub-genre dance trends often usually seem to last for a year or so.

I totally forgot we had this thread last year I need to read it again to see which slayed and which flopped. Hopefully my previous BJSC artist Snakehips can go big and DJ Fresh and Zara can go big also

With House music on its way out (RIP) and Garage music on its way back in (again!), it'll be interesting to see what's big next year in terms of dance tracks. I just hope we don't go back down the H Two O / T2 / Mike Delinquent route again because as it good as it was it now sounds terribly dated.

I know the singles from Tringle did practically nothing, but I still have faith that when JoJo finally releases the full studio version of MNEK produced 'Good Thing' that it could be a massive UK smash if pushed:
Would love it to be this year's 'Hideaway'. Maybe I'm being too optimistic, I just hope her team know what they are doing and are gearing this up as the massive lead single, as I so want 2016 to be her's for the taking. |

Dawin feat. Silento - Dessert
Guilty pleasure written all over this and already big in Australia. Should take off eventually. Shift K3Y feat. BB Diamond - Gone Missing If Garage does make a comeback next year, I'd expect there to be hits that sound similar to this one. Who knows, maybe even 'Gone Missing' could do something too, it's certainly good enough. Frisco feat. Shakka - Different Kind No audio for this yet, but I've heard it on late night 1Xtra and it sounds BIG. Watch this space... |

Since when was garage meant to be making a comeback? must've missed the memo somewhere
I know the new Craig David song is doing half decently but I thought that was more down to the song being his first in absolute ages. |

I hope Zara Larsson breaks through, everyone at work is obsessed with that girl on Never Forget You, so I can see Lush Life being a hit next month.

Hoping Snakehips and Zara Larsson make the breakthroughs they deserve! Also wouldn't mind Dawin becoming a hit, it's so much better than Watch Me!! Quite a few of the tips I have no heard yet.

garage is just a subgenre of house music with a HUGE overlap with deep/future variants~

Bryson Tiller - Don't
This guy is blowing up in America and is in line for a big 2016. Getting Drake or The Weeknd vibes from him. Maybe not this song, but promising nevertheless. This type of R&B is proving popular right now. |

How's the Mike Posner song gonna get round radio though? They're hardly going to play a song that goes "I took a pill in Ibiza..."
Will have to have a listen to some of the other songs mentioned in this thread though. This post has been edited by Mangø: Dec 3 2015, 12:15 AM |

From the ones mentioned; Lush Life I think will be a definite Top 5 hit/potential #1 ('Uncover' could be a sizeable hit too if it's pushed), and Dessert/I Took a Pill will probably break through at some point
Wonder if Lukas Graham - 7 Years could become some sort of hit? Not sure how much that'll catch on in the UK but it could happen. The Vamps could finally grab a decent sized hit this era with Volcano. The Chainsmokers - Roses may take off like it has in the US. I'll try and think of more later on ~ On the topic of upcoming artists, i see Zara Larsson and Dua Lipa being among next year's big chart stars, and Loyle Carner possibly being a Mercury Prize contender (if he releases an album) |

7 Years definitely has potential I think, and hopefully will get pushed at some point. If Ed Sheeran had sung a song like that it'd be big. Its doing well in Europe at the moment so it could certainly cross over.
Also: Matt Simons - Catch & Release - been big in Europe so could catch on here. Elle King - Ex's & Oh's - I know its just been added to the R1 playlist so it'd probably do well anyway but I can see this picking up steam after the New Year. |

Really hope Lush Life is big! Such a jam. Really rooting for Exs And Ohs, Here and All My Friends too, all four need to be huge hits.
