TOP 5 DEFINITIVE RECORDS OF 2005 & WHY?

In no order....

Bush II bush - Piano track
Was astounded by the results this got on the dancefloor the VERY good bit only lasts 30 secs or so IMO but the crowd love it.

Hiroki Esashika - Kazane
Probably the most influential tune on me this year, responsible for so much... ;) ;)

Plump DJs - The rub off
Superb track from the breaks maestros.

Porno
Know will get slated for it as it's bound to hit commercial nothingness soon, but the first time I heard it, it rocked. End of.

Korn - Twisted transistor (Electratech mix)
Mr K at his twisted best, the amount of people I've scared whilst singing this driving down the motorway... :D :D (The remix name was complete co-incidence, honestly)

Special mention goes to,

John Legend - Ordinary people (R&B mix)
The same as above minus the Mr K bit. Almost restored my faith in R&B acts... :oops: :oops: :oops:
 
Deux - sun rising up balearic-sulfuric best melodic track

Mandy vs. BOOKA SHADE - body language really innovative

pryda - aftermath - track of EVERY ibiza club closin party, smashin!
 
Trentemoller's mix of Yoshimoto is probably my fave production of his this year (and I won't forget the final half hour that I caught of his DJ set for a long time).

The TWD mix of "Mr Brightside" is, like several have already mentioned, an absolute anthem.

Kerri Chandler's "Bar A Thym" and Quentin Harris's "Let's Be Young" have done the business for me as well.

"Everybody" by Autoboots (Mylo's Engineer) was an awesome lo-fi tech-house cover of Coldcut / Lisa Stansfield's "People Hold On" that nobody seemed to play. I also love cheeky b00tlegs and reworks such as E-Man's "Axel F", which caused a storm when Lawler dropped it at UG in Sheffield.

Also, am I the only person who preferred "The Gift" to "Aftermath"? Prydz's Cirez D and Dirty Funker productions have also been strong, as have the releases from the rest of the Swedish house mafia..

In terms of funky, the Vitamin D remix of Sean Biddle's "Little Cafe" was wicked and Freemasons' "Love On My Mind" was this year's "Lola's Theme" .

Oh, and a little ditty called "Garilka" by some chaps called Mark Sun and Damondo has also been doing the business :) . Tune and a half. Anil and Dale's mix of "Got It" was also good, and "Disco Stew" was another nice track (although I don't have a copy).

3. Rhythmique (Grayson Shipley remix) - sorry, had to put it in, has been the most important record of my life and it isn't even out yet ! Taken an age to get sorted out, but finally coming out soon on Viva. Grayson's mix took a decent idea and turned it into big room business.

5 tunes that soundtracked my summer in Ibiza, all equally important.

Lifelike & Kris Menace - Discopolis
The ecstasy is totally dripping off this. Needs to be pitched up though

Quentin Harris - Let's Be Young
It's all about that beeping line, monotonous in a fantastic way

The Drill - The Drill
Gorgeous record

Blaze - Most Precious Love
Heard this first on the radio in May, and that break stuck with me the whole summer. Copyright's mix good too

Dirty Rotten DJ's - Start Getting Naked
Massive with the San An workers. Love it, Dean and Gary (they live above the Ship Inn btw :D ) have a bright future

Plus many many many others, the music this year has been awesome. Best in ages.
 
DAJAE BRIGHTER DAYS (HAJI & EMANUEL MIXES)

Top tune hammered at Bora Bora most days by Gee. Gets the crowd well going.

DANNY HOWELLS & DICK TREVOR FEAT. ERIR BREATHE

Same as above.

CHANEL MY LIFE (HAJI & EMANUEL REMIXES)

Pure magic by the Hed Kandi Lads.

HARD-FI HARD TO BEAT (AXWELL MIX)

One of the anthems at Space this year.Cant get sick of this tune.

JERRY ROPERO & DENIS THE MENACE CORACAO

This is my tune of the year, hammered by Sanchez and everybody else on the island.

LIFELIKE & KRIS MENACE DISCOPOLIS

The build up on this tune still gets the hairs on my arms going.

SUCKER DJS Lotta lovin' (paradise soul mix

does anyone know how to get in contact with these guys?
I done a mix of this track which Pob (Jules) was playing a few months ago, been trying to get hold of them since !
 
Not in any particluar order:

1: Coco & Villa- La Noche

A beautiful house record with great spanish guitar with it being up tempo enough to work on the dancefloor. Sanchez played it at Pacha about 7am and it was a moment.


2: Deux - Sun Rising Up

Really didnt like this record before I went to Ibiza in September but heard in Space and Pacha and that unsurprisingly changed my mind.

3: We Deliver - Breathe Again

A great record with nice piano and a strong vocal. Superb.

4: Blaze - Most Precious Love

This record speaks for itself and needs no explanation.

5: Deetron - Miss Suave

Released in 2003 but heard it a couple of times and it made a real impact. A great electro houser which if it doesnt get u moving there is something wrong with u.

6: Nu -Rhythmix- Babylon

This record is summer time for me.

7: Marvin Gaye- Whats Going On?

Another older one but with such a smooth vocal and message in the lyrics its a topper.
 
a little more

I agree with a lot of the writers above. But speaking about 2005 I have to add something:

CSSK vs Howard Jones "Things can only get better"

This was one of my most loved tracks this year. Found by accident and loved it more everytime I heard it.


Moby "Lift me up" Mylo Remix

Not much to say about this one. Love Mylo!


And finally:

Slitloop "Here on Business" and "When I rock"

Thought my "Big Beat days" were over. Then I heard Annie Nightingale on radio1 from the Berlin Tower. Splitloop played an incredible set and showed me, that Big Beats definetely can still rock and move my ass and put a big fat smile on my face. The titles of the tracks speak for themselves.

Have a nice 2006! Merry Christmas.

5? You must be joking.

1. Yoshimoto - Du What U Du (Trentemoller remix)*
Absolute stormer, and will get no arguements on here. The sheer thump of it when it comes in from the first and second breaks. I simply cannot not do the "couch dance" when it comes on.


Awesome Tune:twisted:
