RESULTS (of the very nebulously defined) 110 ELECTRONIC DANCE TRACKS of the 00s

i've used it on one of mine but i'm assuming it's not that one

adam marshall for LWE? silent servant for mnml ssgs?

ohh, berghain 02 is the mix, too, I was only seeing the vinyl single on discogs. yeah, I have been listening to that dettman mix

also a lot of mnml ssgs mixes! lots of good ones.

if you can play two copies of native rhythm electric at once it is a treat (even in youtube)

25. Tensnake - Coma Cat (317 points, 14 votes)

Tensnake is extremely hooky. Everytime I hear somebody mention M-Cat I get the Coma Cat vocal replaying in my head

kind of amazing how many times i've heard "coma cat" played out this year, and i really don't even go out that much. is this just random coincidence or are sf disco nights actually indicative of this song sorta blowing up ???
― a lagoon par la mer (psychgawsple), Monday, April 26, 2010

this track has basically the most perfect hook ever.

Coma Cat just feels like one of those timelessly perfect house records, like Chime/Voodoo Ray level perfect. It sends dancefloors into states of ridiculous grinning euphoria.

p you want them 4-8 seconds apart (6 is really nice)

tensnake sux yawn

Gonna take the opportunity that you guys are rather active over here to post the remaining 5 before the top 20.

Didn't vote for Coma Cat but I'm glad it made the list (wasn't really in doubt I guess).

24. Audion - Mouth to Mouth (318 points, 10 votes)

YAYAYA

not quite as good as MUND ZU MUND but i don't think enough people have heard that one

i just ... i never "got" stuff like "coma cat" or "timecode" or pantha du prince or "trentemoller's polar express to tweeland". it just seems so middlebrow pretty.

I know this is a fairly selfish request but at some point once the countdown is finished I would love some kind of history lesson on 00s bobbins and how everything fits together. I've looked up a few of the old threads on here and they've given me some sense of how things developed but I still feel like I don't have the whole picture.

awwww deeee aaaaaahhhhn

hahaha

you want a history lesson or a culture war andy m?

"well first there was dance music, then poptimist britishes, gay german yoga dudes and trust fund party photographer showed up and almost killed it for everyone!"

23. Hercules & Love Affair - Blind (324 points, 11 votes)
Year: 2008

OK, I've listened to "Blind" 20 times today. It's the harmonies on that "I feel blind" that get me each time (something that gets lost in the Frankie Knuckles remix), and the beat right after that where the horns come in and I imagine all the dry ice around the dance floor going whoooosh and all the shirts coming off.
― Eazy, Monday, February 18, 2008

Yes! Blind was like a revelation of sort, it's like what he was born to do. A voice with oomph like that has it's place, and where it was before wasn't it.
― mehlt, Tuesday, February 12, 2008

xpost Particularly interested in the German side of things (microhouse, minimal, Berghain techno, when and how the changes came in between them, what all the key tunes/people/places/events were) but also would like to know about the electroclash>electrohouse>franken/bloghouse narrative too. And any points where the two met, e.g. as I understand it around 04-05 minimal and electrohouse were played in sets together and had some overlapping stylistic elements, right?

Didn't like Mouth To Mouth when I first heard it but it's grown on me. Blind I'm not familiar with, will give it a listen.

If someone had played "Dexter" for me, and told me that it was a remix of Joy Division's "Heart and Soul", I'd have have believed it without question. What a beautiful and original track. (I believe there's an entire ILM thread on this track)
― Barry Bruner (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, August 3, 2004

Ok, see you next week!

romeo ugh

Romeo is amazing fuiud. Total pop song though.

Romeo is surprisingly low! I'd expected that to be top 10. Probably says more about voter demographic though.

The Isolee comment earlier about covering the song with a band reminded me of Dexter -- the Two Lone Swordsmen remix is them covering it.

...which was paired with a Joy Division cover at the end of Weatherall's fabric mix.

mouth to mouth has aged pretty poorly

nah it's still a beast imo.

romeo is fucking awesome if you're a girl in a jetta singing it

otherwise be very ashamed

what if you're in the jetta en route to getting laid?

because that's how i feel every time i listen to that track.

I Gave You Away is better than Mouth To Mouth. Discus.

if you're getting laid to romeo you're essentially a briny

hahahaha or a brony

you need some SET YO BODY FREE SET YO BODY FREE

i just wasn't made for these jaxx

goddammit, fucked my bookmark

Vahid's death to false pop-dance crusade would be more convincing if he didn't listen to so much namby pamby post-dubstep.

hahahaha

if i didn't drive around in a jetta that year singing romeo

srsly though i always much much much preferred their "straight house bangers" like set yo body free and flylife, even at the time, as rtc said "womp womp wot it do"

my favorite track on that was actually the one SR compared to wings

and breakaway but the real news was PLUG IT IN PLUG IT IN *snaps at waist with wrists crossed, into windmill snaps*

and lucky star (dilinja remix)

srsly though i always much much much preferred their "straight house bangers" like set yo body free and flylife, even at the time, as rtc said "womp womp wot it do"

When all is said and done so do I, over the years "Same Old Show" has become my favourite Jaxx tune I think. But I still think "Romeo" is a great tune.

there's also anything that says "brixton" in the title, the raw shit, and anything called "jaxx nite dub", uh, like that one ronnie richards thing jess and crabbe played in every set that sounds like they're throwing cymbals and kettle drums over the decks at your head

yeah Breakaway was total Prince-Not-Prince and amazing. Lucky Star blew my mind bitd too.

this sounds amazing pitched up real fast

"Breakaway" is straight fire. The actual best Jaxx track.

i'm starting to fear that my number 1 isn't going to make it and i genuinely believe it's the best tune of the 00s :( it begins with a 'q'.

No idea, but thank you for reminding me of a very important Q track for the 90s poll!
