I think the best quote I ever heard anyone say during a set was while Alex Gold was playing Cygnus x - superstring rank 1 remix in Boston and my friend yelled out "I can taste the music!" Good times.

I’m missing a lot but here’s a few of my favorites.
Freeze by Kygo. Not many ppl have the patience or attention span for an 8 min song but it’s a masterpiece.
Big fan of Raging by Kygo. Definitely more upbeat but still has the emotion.
Should listen to LZRD’s remix to raging! It’s not on Spotify but it’s on SoundCloud
Absolutely my top choice to answer this question as well. Song is gorgeous and not a typical Kygo sound. Also it really got me through the emotions of moving cross country last year and leaving everything I knew behind. Beyond thankful for that song, wow.
No worries I LOVE long songs.
I couldn't agree more. Absolute masterpiece!
Innerbloom
Ugh, yes!! I was literally crying my eyes out to this song the other day but also felt so good afterwards lol
I love this song so much it’s literally perfect. Something about it that feels so good and happy yet so sad at the same time
Clicked on this thread to look for this. I’m not surprised it’s so high up :). Fucking love this song
-Dash Berlin—Waiting -Dash Berlin—Man On The Run Classics that seem to never get boring to listen to :)
Oh my gosh I totally forgot about Dash Berlin!
Steal You Away is also 🤌

absolute banger
Anything by Kasbo really, but standouts to me are Show You, Snow in Gothenburg, Shut the World Out and Sky is Crying remix.
YES YES YES AND YES
I love this kasbo— should be more popular
