Britney's best tune

Spoiler: Slave 4 U

 

[Fez909]

Trousersnake's best tune (love the percussion on this one)

Spoiler: Like I Love You

 

[killer b]

I think I realised Trousersnake's greatness when I went to see Daniel Wang DJ in a pub in Sheffield when that was in the charts - he dropped it halfway through his set (probably the basement jaxx remix) and it just went off. Fucking great tune.

My favourite ever pop song

they did a great remix of NERD's she want's to move too, although I'm sure you're aware of that.

I favour the DFA version...

Spoiler: NERD

 

[Fez909]

Nope, didn't know those two either.

Definitely prefer the DFA, although I prefer the orig overall.

This is my favourite N.E.R.D. remix, from the right era but it's too slow for this thread. So, so good though:

This isn't far off for me;

 

[stavros]

He and Kanye were Roc-A-Fella's in-house producers in this era, but alas Just Blaze never went solo so doesn't get the popular acclaim of Kanye. I think he was a better producer though;

 

[twentythreedom]

There was loads of this sort of stuff coming out back then. Glory days of the genre(s)

(Great idea for a thread btw killer b)

Yes! This is one of my favourites. Such a banger. Through I will never be able to forgive the line 'I'm like a hammer that you hold in your hand - i make hits'!
