15 best EDM radio shows on Youtube
/If you're a fan that gets excited by listening to the hottest tracks curated by some of the biggest DJs or labels in the electronic dance music scene, then pay attention. One of the frustrations of listening to a radio show these days is the lack of an active tracklist to follow along while you listen in, which makes it hard to follow along. If you hear a great track during a radio show, but have to work to find the name of the track and artist, then that's far from ideal. These 15 radio shows are worthy to highlight because they do the heavy lifting for you as they feature an active tracklist that tells you which track is playing at anytime.
The reason why not all radio shows do this is because it takes effort, time, and money to do it, and that's why it's important to highlight the shows that bother to go down this route. So without further ado, here are the 15 EDM radio shows on Youtube that are worthy of your attention.

Cosmic Gate hits it out of the park with Wake Your Mind Sessions 002 (Compilation)
/
Cosmic Gate just released an epic 33 track 2-disc compilation which could very well be the best ensemble of progressive and trance tracks in 2016. If you enjoy the deeper stuff along with Cosmic Gate's classic uplifting and emotional brand of music, then this is the release for you.
The first CD is a showcase of the deeper side of Cosmic Gate as they slowly turn the temperature up to the 2nd CD where the magic happens. You'll get to hear their latest hit "am2pm", as well as a nasty remix of Cosmic Gate's "So Get Up" by Alex Di Stefano. Another little gem is the revamped "Third Contact" remix of their classic hit "Exploration of Space", giving it a fresh coat of paint ready for the 2016 summer festival season.
The first Wake Your Mind compilation released last year made a strong impression, but the 2nd installment served to solidify the series as a must-listen for every trance fan. Wake Your Mind Sessions 002 is a pleasure to listen to and is a fantastic compilation to pick up following Anjunabeats Volume 12. You can buy it by clicking here.
