S2L's Top 30 of 2012: #30 - #26

Since we only have a few weeks left in 2012, Sherman and I have been compiling a list of our favorite songs from the past year. It has definitely been a good year in the EDM scene, and the difficulty in compiling this list proved that. This list isn't a reflection of the most popular or biggest songs of the year, but rather it is an extremely biased (and brilliant) list of the S2L favorites of 2012. 

We start off at #30 with the surprisingly progressive house-y production "Summer" from trance stars W&W and Jochen Miller, followed by the epitome of hard-hitting, uplifting trance in Raytheon's "Caldera". At #28 is the super-chill EDU remix of Garrido & Skehan's "Stay", and Audien's new electro track "Sup" right after. And last, but certainly not least, at #26 is Archie's fantastic progressive house (and Brony?) track "Leto". 

#30 : W&W & Jochen Miller - Summer (Original Mix)


#29 : Raytheon - Caldera (Original Mix)


#28 : Garrido & Skehan feat Isobel Mai - Stay (EDU Remix)


#27 : Audien - Sup (Original Mix)


#26 : Archie - Leto (Original Mix)
