The 15 Best Tech House Tracks of 2025

Looking back on 2025, tech house existed in a familiar tension. On one side, a genre so clearly defined it risks looping in on itself. On the other, a steady run of records that quietly reaffirmed why DJs keep returning to it. This was less a year of reinvention and more one of refinement. Fewer dramatic pivots, more attention paid to groove, restraint, and records that actually function over time. Of course, lists like this are inherently a little silly. There are hundreds, possibly thousands, of equally defensible versions of this feature. Different rooms, different cities, different DJs, different priorities. All valid. This is simply Magnetic’s selection of the tracks that endured, travelled well, and proved themselves across the year. Not the loudest records, but the ones that stuck. These are the 15 Best Tech House Tracks of 2025. FISHER & bbyclose – Blackberries “Blackberries” works because it understands proportion. FISHER brings his usual clarity and economy, while bbyclose’s vocal adds character without tipping into novelty. The hook is memorable but never disruptive, giving the track a longevity that many similar releases lacked. Rather than feeling tied to a moment, it became a reliable constant, the kind of record DJs reach for when they want familiarity without predictability. HASKELL – Suave Suave “Suave Suave” ended up feeling like a quiet thesis statement for HASKELL’s year. The groove is unforced and patient, built around swing rather than spectacle. Nothing is rushed and nothing is overplayed, which is exactly why it held its place across so many different settings. There is a clear DJ logic running through the arrangement, with elements designed to sit comfortably in a mix rather than dominate it. In a year where subtlety often got overlooked, this track trusted the basics and was rewarded for it. Hatiras – Hypnotized Hatiras has long favoured longevity over trend-chasing, and “Hypnotized” reflects that mindset perfectly. The track is lean, controlled, and locked into its rhythm, with no excess decoration. Its strength lies in repetition and flow, allowing the groove to do the heavy lifting. Over time, it proved how far a disciplined arrangement can go when the fundamentals are right. Biscits – 2C2 With “2C2,” Biscits delivered one of his most stripped-back and functional records of the year. Known for balancing character with club efficiency, he resisted the urge to overwork the arrangement, instead focusing on tight percussion, a rolling low-end, and a groove that stays locked throughout. It is the kind of track that works best when you stop noticing it and simply feel its effect. Over time, it proved itself as a dependable connector in sets, reinforcing Biscits’ understanding of how records actually move rooms. Max Styler – I Know Your Want To Max Styler continued to sharpen his sound with “I Know Your Want To,” leaning into repetition and pressure rather than obvious payoff. The vocal phrase folds neatly into the rhythm, becoming part of the groove rather than sitting on top of it. There is a patience to the arrangement that reflects a producer comfortable leaving space. It is functional, focused, and quietly effective, which is why it stayed relevant long after release. SIDEPIECE – Lick SIDEPIECE know how to walk the line between accessibility and credibility, and “Lick” sits firmly in that space. The production is polished without feeling overworked, and the vocal hook adds just enough identity to anchor the track. It proved dependable in a wide range of settings, offering consistency rather than theatrics and doing exactly what a good club record should. David Penn, Crusy & Kadoc – The Night Train This collaboration brought a sense of lineage into the year’s output. Piano stabs and familiar vocal touches nod to classic house, while the structure remains firmly modern and practical. The track’s broad appeal came from experience rather than compromise, built by producers who understand how to reference history without diluting it. Darius Syrossian – The Fire Dance “The Fire Dance” is percussion-led in the truest sense. Every element feeds the rhythm, creating forward momentum without relying on breakdowns or dramatic shifts. Syrossian’s confidence in groove over embellishment made this a steady presence throughout the year. It is assertive without being aggressive, designed to maintain energy rather than spike it. Michael Bibi & Alexa Sunshine Rose – Sungazing “Sungazing” carried a different weight to many records released in 2025. Emotionally resonant without losing its club grounding, it balanced warmth and restraint with care. Alexa Sunshine Rose’s vocal adds humanity without overwhelming the track’s structure, while Bibi’s production remains disciplined and measured. In hindsight, it stands as one of the year’s more quietly affecting club records. Solardo – Psycho With “Psycho,” Solardo leaned into a darker, rougher edge of their sound. Distorted textures and a tougher groove pu
