63. DONKIE PUNCH & LORENZO "Snapbacks n Tattoos" [206 points, 6 votes]

well if this isn't the best thing in the world

yep. hadn't heard it before i assembled my ballot but it was definitely the most fun song among my last-minute listens

There's a fair few things I like about the Guru track, but fucking house stabs! Again! Argh! Tear out my ears!

but house stabs are the best thing in the world tho

was gonna say

Obv the last two tunes are my two favourite things ever.

I remember seeing this on the noms list, but thought "Donkie Punch? Next..." and didn't listen to it. I should've.

not as good as actual stabs

Lol, Rev, they're pretty much my least favourite sound in the world. Aside from maybe smooth '80s 'soulful' sax solos. (Which I'm sure you're going to say you love too, hahaha.)

xp yes please to some Scott Walker in this thread.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

was resigned to no jackin tunes in this thing, so pleased :)

lol i was not aware of this existing. i hesitate to mention that i actually liked the driicky graham song

lol @ gr8080

lol i tried to vote for the driicky graham song but no one nominated it

"keep calm and carry on" posters are the single worst, most unfunny meme on the internet

would have voted for the original - did I? was it nominated? hmmm

oh no i laughed at an unfunny meme on the internet

*bites nails*

yeah it wasn't nominated xp

they're a national fucking plague

I really like this song from around 2 minutes on, but the first two minutes were tough to get through.

I'd say they're more hit and miss personally.

Is this "jackin' house"? I didn't pay tons of attention to UK dance musics this year. This is dope as fuck tho.

you guys seem pretty worked up over those posters

certified jackin

that's quite decent too. not really the kind of music i listen to every day, a wee bit too repetitive but it has something about it. there is enough variety in that track that it keeps my attention until the end. i like that ringing, echoing background noise.

yeah the original's a serviceable banger, i like it, if i'd heard it more in the wild i'd probably like it a lot more. the jackin remix just makes me want to hear the original instead (as per every jackin track i've heard)

love this but hope the original places too

oh wonka meme >

I think I've said this before but all internet memes that don't originate from the rap internet are terrible.

The rap internet?

this is also fucking great, damn

literally never heard of "jacking house" in my life, how many of these are going to place?

LET'S JACK

i guess that youtbue isn't the full version, if someone wants to post a good link...

im still not sure what defines jackin house but these are pretty good

Can someone provide a quick definition of jacking house? Acid house would be one root?

I could just do a search of course.

seems kind of like bassline house without the crazy basslines? i don't like this track as much as the last
