Lorely Rodriguez, also known as Empress Of, creates a crystalline synth-pop song with "Water Water" as her calls feel like you're lost in a cold mist trying to find your significant other. There's an aquatic nature to this club track, making it feel like a cold dip in a vibrating lake. Vocals like the brush of a hand in a pond.
2. "t" by iamamiwhoami
"t" drives the listener into a mystical atmosphere. Its a walk out of the frozen lake and into the depths of a willowing frosted forest trying to find the mystics behind the trees. The synth-pop adhesive the song bounds to paints the fairytale image of an ice nymph trying to find her way.
3. "Wildest Moments" by Jessie Ware
Jessie Ware produces an immensely strong love song with "Wildest Moments". The atmosphere of the piano chords and bell-like synth beats let her voice soar into euphoria. There's an infectious command to the track, as Ware guides the song like a powerful march, stating that she and her lover can be the best and worst of them all.
4. "Lips" by The xx

This song sounds like new-found oxygen, making your lungs feel cleaner than ever. There such a pristine sense to this frosty track. This track grounds the listener and makes them feel as intimate and twinkly as ever.
5. "It's Not Just Me" by Let's Eat Grandma
The weird pop-duo of "Let's Eat Grandma" is pop perfection in the eyes of glitchy high-pitched British pop. This track is a glitchy-synthy dream that feels like the sunrise on a lovely winter morning. The production is grand but also feels like shades of pink and grey. Its one of the catchier tunes on this track, with an emotionally adorable delivery.
