I don’t know whether there already is a topic about this, but anyway. In your reply to this post, show the name your 5 favourite songs of any genre not necessarily made with Renoise (instrumental or vocal) in the order of first to last. Also mention the artist after each song, preceded by a hyphen. If possible, please give a link to a preview of your top favourite. Ok, here are mine:-
Beep Street - Squarepusher (live video here, sound quality isn’t as good as the actual mp3)
Szamar Madar - Venetian Snares
Hit The Decks - Cirrus
Vache - Venetian Snares
Hotal California - Eagles

Argh, Tower of Power, ofcourse!! Yes, this is what makes these topics dangerous:
the songs are always stuck in your head, till the moment you want to write down their names.
Mine are not necessarily listed by order of which I think is best. These are some of my favorite songs. 5 was entirely too short and I feel guilty not adding dozens more here…
Squarepusher - ‘A Journey to Reedham (7am Mix)’ from ‘Big Loada’ (Warp (WAP92) (1998)
Joy Division - ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ from ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart EP’ (1980)
Circle Jerks - ‘I’m Alive’ from ‘VI’
Slayer - ‘Angel of Death’ from ‘Reign in Blood’
Death - ‘Spirtual Healing’ from ‘Spirtual Healing’ (1990)
Egyptian Lover - ‘Egypt Egypt’ (1984)
Black Sabbath - ‘Sweet Leaf’ from ‘Master of Reality’ (1971)
Iron Maiden - ‘Revelations’ from ‘Piece of Mind’ (1983)
2 - Unexpect - Chromatic Chimera
Progressive metal with heavy classical, industrial and folk influences. There’s seven of them in the band; a versatile female soprano, some geezer on nine string bass, a violinist, a keyboard player, a drummer and two guitarists who also provide a massive amount of vocal harmonies and heavier styles.
3 - Kid Carpet - Nelson Street Space Invaders
Simple, silly electronic music using kids toys, crappy keyboards, plastic 4 chord guitars and sings into a Fisher Price tape recorder with a heavy English accent. But it’s awesome.
4 - Hala Strana - Streets Of Raised Platforms
Mellow, low-key instrumental music using a wide variety of acoustic instruments and light electric guitars. Beautiful without being cheesy and has this strange old, timeless feel to it.
5 - Ion Dissonance - O.A.S.D.
Technical extreme metal. Heavy use of syncopation and time signature switching as well as the occasional polyrhythm. Manages to still recognise the importance of riffs while being chaotic as hell and repeated listens reveal an incredible overall groove.
gosh i dont know how to answer this question. ive been tracing the history & roots of abstract dance music & drug oriented music. (in general) so i have alot of new favorites, problem is i plan to remix most of them so if i say anything it would be stupid of me!!
my favorites usually change weekly but for new stuff. i’m really feeling the dubstep, kode 9, loefah, skream, digital mysticz, burial, timeblind, everything & anything with warrior queen & space ape on it, keeping my ears peeled for some new & good nsf, an 0=0.
J-Dilla - Mash
Worst Band in the World- Working on it
Herbie Handcock- Chamelion ( From the Headhunters EP)
Madlib- Left on Silver Lake
Seba- Shapeshifter
I made a list on earlier topics so I don’t wan’t to do It again, It’s too hard anyway.
but thank you marc for giving me a new RMB song I only knew Spring and Reality (and the great Unreality version)
about Smack my bitch up…This is one of this songs that I can’t hear enough.
Even after hearing this tune million times, I always get that get up and dance, energy explosion and why didn’t I made this song, feeling.
