There are so many popular and not-so-popular but great songs that we had to sift through to figure out which was the best song that deserved to be called the ‘Number One Dancefloor Hit of 2016.’ No matter what songs we went through, we just couldn’t stop ourselves from picking Closer by The Chainsmokers, featuring Halsey, as our pick of the year. This is not a song that can be played during the peak of the dance set by DJs, or not even by bands, but it does have that element of partial immortality, more than the others.
The Chainsmokers, consisting of Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall, are hands down the most successful EDM act today. The duo have quickly established themselves to be in that position since 2015 when their single Roses became a global hit. They were able to continue their winning ways by releasing a few more songs that became certified hit singles proving that they are not a flash in the pan “ certainly, no one-hit wonder. The successful run The Chainsmokers have had for a few years now is largely credited to the fact that they were able to adapt to the times with their smooth transition“from making club banger songs when they first known as crowd favorites and a very popular act in the club circuit to making more radio friendly and commercial songs everyone can enjoy.
