Go.

tough tough question...
one of my all time faves has to be

Best -
Evergreen & Landlord - Jah Rain (RSD Remix)
reasons being the tune has so much energy without being the slightest bit aggro,the bass and drum patterns roll perfectly and it never fails to lift my mood.

Worst -
Any tune by Excision,i just find his beats majorly boring,no groove in the tunes,no swing,rarely a melody (aside from That Girl) and to sound cliche most of his tunes sound like a robot with a serious farting issue.

Best - mount kimbie 50 mile view. Drop at 2 minutes just hits me so nicely.

Worst - Anything by shekel. All sounds the same and just hate it.

Best: Pinch - Qawwali (having a never ending battle with neverland...)
Worst: The Others - Africa

Africa's a long standing least favourite. Countless tunes have come out since that I actively hate more, but theyre still trying to do something (albeit something i dont like). Africa was the most half assed attempt at a tune id ever heard. Somewhat similar to top gear voting the nissan sunny the worst car ever. Its not the worst at anything, but theres nothing worth listening to in it full stop.

Oh, and Jeremy Clarkson needs to leave the public eye, quickly.

best - can't really choose a single best tune but qawwali, the vex'd remix of distance's fallen and offal by ramadanman are candidates.

worst - that sierra leone thing

Best: Quest - Eden

Worst: Yeah, Sierra Leonne. Just fuck off with that.

Best: Skream - Dutch Flowers

Worst: Mistabishi - Printer Jam (Barbarix)

Best: qawwali is untouchable and the best, but to add variation, its rusko's acton dread. Carve me up for mentioning him if you want, but that tune is worth appreciation, even if he isn't anymore.

Worst: ravers special - rusko (stupid), takin the piss - funtcase (cringable song, awful production) but definately Printer jam remix - barbarix (i bourght the green vinyl of this for the flip, white collar grime, hadn't heard this remix, and when i played it, i thought my sub was broken as there was no bass at all.)

best - miracles: you know how confident you gotta be with ya production to strip a tune down like that?

worst - lol...

Best - Blue Notes, Mud, Router, Justify, Etched Headplate & Hamas Rule.

Worst - lol

best - dj abstract - touch, peverelist - roll with the punches, mala - stand against war

worst - lol

Best: Digital Mystikz - Neverland
Worst: Cant pick just one but anything by Diesel his songs sound like a 10 year old screaming on xbox live with a 2 step drum pattern haha

Best - Pinch - Midnight Oil ... Its beautifully composed on every level, each and every instrument plays sucha major role in the tune, and they all come tegether to form a final product so well! You get the impression when you listen to it that if you were to mute any one channel in his daw, the entire tune would fall apart, but all together, there perfect. The mixing and mastering on it is beyond unbelievable, you can almost smell the acetate coming through the speakers when its dropped... And too top it all off, its the most amazing tune to dance too, as chill as it is...

Worst - Anything that goes Fnote - Fnote - Fnote - Fnote for 32 bars, changes to Gnotes, n repeats. Hi bro's!

Best.
Skream - Warning (D1 Remix) - If you have any sense you'll already know why

Worst.
Magnetic Man - Mad - really really bad.

Best: RSD - Good Energy. It sounds weird to say but there are tunes that I sorta like better, like the James Blake remix of Maybes, but I feel like I could listen to Good Energy on loop forever

Worst: Burial - Archangel (Mt. Eden Remix) Look how many hits it has on youtube, go on.. look. I know, hurts doesn't it?

Either that or Calvin Harris - I'm Not Alone (Doorly Remix) 'LOL this tunez filther than sumthing thats filthy LOL'

Best - Can't really decide but Digital Mystikz - Mawo dub or a Kryptic Minds one

Worst - 16 bit - In the death car (listen to it fully)

Best: truth - the fatman

Worst: dr p - big boss

thinking of an answer to this thread made me realise there are more tunes i passionately dislike than those that i love. that must be a bad thing

got to put on the dusty old positive hat more often

Best: Midnight Request Line
I think there's definately tracks that are far more complex and technically sound, and probably tracks that I prefer listening to, but this song is the track that started it all for me and that's why It gets my vote.

Worst: I'm pretty sure it'd have to be Sweet Shop. I just fucking hate it. Pure fucking hatred.
