Hear All Your Favorite 2015 Songs In One Killer Mashup
Believe it or not, 2015 is winding down — which means ’tis the season of year-end roundups, mashups and “best-of” listicles galore.
One of the most hotly anticipated annual mashups of the past few years is Canadian DJ Daniel Kim’s “Pop Danthology” series, which has been a viral hit since 2010. On Tuesday (Nov. 10), Kim released his 2015 edition, and it’s monstrous. In fact, it’s so big that he had to split it into separate parts.
“With music from all over the world becoming more and more accessible, it has become increasingly more challenging to satisfy my fans and fit in all of their many favourite songs in my year-end mashup,” Kim wrote on his website. “I found myself cutting down so much of the original musical pieces just to “jam” in as many songs as I could.”
Part one comprises 45 songs, while part two boasts 37 tracks, but clocks in at a slightly longer length (the extended versions are available on Kim’s Soundcloud page). Both tracks are like a dizzying sugar rush to the head, packed with sliced-up Top 40 hits that will make you relive the stellar year in pop music.
Taylor Swift boasts the most songs than any other artist (“Style,” “Bad Blood” and “Wildest Dreams” are all included), though Selena Gomez comes notably close (two of her own singles, “Good For You” and “Same Old Love,” made the cut, as well as her collab with Zedd, “I Want You To Know”). Other artists include established hitmakers like Justin Bieber, Madonna, Demi Lovato and Drake, as well as 2015 breakout acts like Tove Lo, Charlie Puth, Walk The Moon, and Fetty Wap.
Take a listen to the two “Pop Danthology” versions below (and if you’re just not feelin’ them, don’t worry — we still have DJ Earworm’s mashup to look forward to).
