How exciting it is to know that we finally have the first banger of the 2026 EDM Hits. I am talking about “LIGHTS GO OUT,” delivered by the talented American DJ and producer, John Summit.
Warning: this track has that “hands-in-the-air” effect and will fill your soul with euphoria! Take a look at the music video below, which is guaranteed to give you a good laugh.
Elevating the Standard for 2026
While John has spent the last year exploring different sounds, his first official single of 2026 is a masterclass in uplifting/explosive production. This jam centers around a soaring vocal that asks where we go when the lights go out, and the answer is clearly straight to the front rail.
It is upbeat, driving, and carries a sense of hope that makes it a standout among current EDM Hits. By blending his signature beats with shimmering synths, Summit has created a song that feels just as good at a 2:00 AM peak-time club set as it does with the volume cranked up on a Saturday night.
The Road to the 2026 Album
Believe it or not, this jam is the heartbeat of John’s next chapter and the first taste of a sophomore album built for high-energy connection.
You can bet “LIGHTS GO OUT” will be the emotional peak when he closes the Ultra Music Festival (Miami) in March before starting his [UNVRS] Ibiza residency in June.
It is shaping up to be a massive year as he continues to drop EDM hits that define the 2026 season.
Employee of the Month Goes Wild
Without a doubt, my favorite part of all this is the visuals. In the clip, John Summit is the employee of the month in an office where everyone looks totally stressed out.
Luckily, once the music kicks in, everyone there literally loses their minds to the beat. Age doesn’t matter at all; everyone is shaking it and going wilder than ever before!
It’s a blast to watch, and the catchy rhythm will have you dancing in your chair. Everything you see in this funny video comes from the awesome vision of director Alex Alvga.
