2. FUN - Kaskade

For those who like to have FUN, 2018 was the perfect combination to this funky house track. Kaskade announced the collaboration at Ultra 2018 and the crowd immediately went wild.

With no doubt "Losing it" is the hottest track of the year. Fisher teased all his fans for a few months before releasing track, playing it at festivals such as Coachella.
