If you rock with UK radio, you know about Zane Lowe. For years he's held down the weekly evening show, representing the freshest and most important music during the 7PM to 9PM hours. And while he has no real set genre that he subscribes to, he gives plenty of love to dance music of all varieties on a regular basis. Recently, he posted his list of the 100 Hottest Songs of 2013, and we loved seeing how much dance music he had, and most importantly, that it wasn't solely UK acts. With Zane being such a vital part of the world's music scene, let's take a look at the dance tracks he considers to be the best of 2013, and know that you can vote on your favorite, which will be turned into a solid best of 2013 list that'll be revealed on December 19.
