Meet Again: Layton Giordani's Chart Bridges Genres Without Losing Its Edge
Layton Giordani delivers a chart that accurately maps the current state of electronic music — a carefully curated selection where dance-pop, heavyweight bass house and peak-time techno coexist without the editorial thread ever unraveling.
The title track says it all: Kaskade, Giordani and Natalie Jane team up on Meet Again, a 132 BPM cut in A minor released via Insomniac Records that fuses Jane's emotive vocal hook with a club-ready groove. It's a statement of intent — emotional depth doesn't have to come at the expense of dancefloor function.
The selection moves fast and wide: Kieran San Jose contributes six-plus minutes of dense bass house with Off The Floor on MADMINDS, while Alok's remix of Green Velvet and Harvard Bass's Lazer Beams — stamped on Drumcode — shows the Brazilian producer restructuring a functional weapon without losing its original punch.
- She's A Devil (Giordani & AR/CO, Experts Only) — dark, grooved tech house at 130 BPM in D minor.
- Amor (Charlotte de Witte feat. CERES, KNTXT) — driving techno at 140 BPM in F major, unmistakably KNTXT in character.
- Ghettoblaster (Enrico Sangiuliano, Drumcode) — 6:48 of peak-time techno at 125 BPM; monolithic D minor architecture.
- Love Within (Adam Beyer & Mark Reeve, Drumcode) — 134 BPM Bb minor closer that cements Drumcode's dominant presence across the chart.
On the melodic side, KREAM & SCRIPT provide warmth with Turn Up The Dose (Liquid Lab) and Devault keeps the tension alive via Experts Only with Can't Wait No More. This chart isn't just a window into Giordani's current tastes — it's a reliable sonic compass for the scene right now.
