You know that exact hour. Phone still glowing, conversation already over, but neither of you has actually hung up. “We’re on a break” is doing a lot of heavy lifting while the last message sits there unanswered. Beyond Magic’s new track “Someone to Love” lives right in that space. The Toronto artist calls it a low-key toxic anthem for anyone stuck in a late-night situationship loop, and the pitch is spot on.
Beyond Magic is more than a stage name. It is the idea of pushing past what electronic music is supposed to do. Based in Toronto, the artist fuses Deep House, Electro Pop and Melodic Dubstep into tracks that feel bigger than a standard club cut. Think cinematic drops, heart-pounding basslines and those floating, almost weightless melodies that sit between feeling everything and dancing it off. The reference points are clear: The Chainsmokers’ pop-hook instincts, Illenium’s emotional lift, Zeds Dead’s darker festival energy. “Someone to Love” sits at that same intersection.
The listed genres for this one are Dance Pop, Tribal / Afro House and EDM, which makes sense once you hear how the track is built. Dance Pop gives it the sing-along shape and the kind of chorus that stays in your head after the lights come up. The Tribal / Afro House influence shows up in the groove and percussion—those rolling, body-first rhythms that keep the energy moving even when the mood is messy. EDM supplies the scale. The production is designed to feel widescreen rather than small-room. It is the kind of record that works at 2 AM in headphones and also on a proper system when the drop finally hits.
This is not the first time Beyond Magic has aimed high. The debut single “All My Love” introduced the sound and climbed to No. 1 on Bass Charts. That early win set the tone: bold, genre-blending, and not interested in staying in one lane. “Someone to Love” continues the same approach. It does not pretend the situationship is healthy. It just puts the feeling to music so you can move with it instead of sitting in it.
Emotional dance music has been having a moment for a while now. Listeners want records that hit the chest and the dance floor at the same time. Artists who can write a hook people actually remember while still delivering festival-sized production keep finding an audience. Beyond Magic is working in that space without copying anyone. The Toronto scene has always been good at mixing influences, and this project leans into that freedom—Deep House warmth, Electro Pop sheen, Melodic Dubstep lift, all under one name.
If you have ever left a conversation on read at 2:17 AM and then immediately checked if they were still online, this one will feel familiar. Play it once for the story. Play it again because the production actually delivers.
