Not a huge fan of some of them, but can't really argue. Cool to see True Romance at # 2. Love that tune.

[axelmadden]

whats lame is theres so muchgarbage(IMO) in this list yet these were the chart toppers for dnb over the past 10 yrs. So much better tunes are not given notice due to lack of top 40 recog. Weak imo but the straight truth

[Sureshot]

Really? Messiah #1???? That whole list is kinda : / IMO

[Elwood]

yeah, completely popularity based. I can see how Messiah got #1 though.

I fucking hate Shake Ur Body however. Shit always made me cringe.

[Sureshot]

My Personal #1 dnb track of the past 10 years would probably be.

Total Science - Jungle Jungle

[Barrage]

Drop it Down is probably my favorite tune on the list. I still love LK as well. Totally forgot about Kosheen... Hide U was cool when it first dropped.

[Trypticon808]

I didn't realize some of those tunes were this decade. Surprised I agree with so many of their choices.

[Elwood]

Personal favorite this decade might be Bulletproof & Optiv - Camouflage. Still rock the fuck out to it.

[Sharpshooter]

Replace the Tide with Block Control or Concussion

and Airplane with Frozen Solid or X-Ray and I'm cool with this list.

Surprised Upbeats didn't make it.

[Botrytis]

Hurt you? That song sux =p. Can't really argue with sales though. These lists are always wacky

[AutomatedPrayer]

Personal favorite this decade might be Bulletproof & Optiv - Camouflage. Still rock the fuck out to it.
I totally remember blowin a circut at recon 1 time when i dropped that tune. but i agree as long as we're talkin the original mix.

no fucking joke. that tune is sooo good. :teefpump:

[cardinal]

IMHO the past 2 years have seen the development of certain guys and labels that a top 20 was way too early, 2010 will be dope no doubt...

and where the fuck are those monster floor stormers like Fallin or Be There 4 U? I don't think both of those specific tracks deserve a spot but something along those lines most certainly does. Why isn't C4C, Raiden, dkay or Concord Dawn on that list?

I'm calling :lame:

[NemesisFive]

I still like that John B tune a lot, still brings back some memories when ever I hear it.

[goreteks]

Punish me !!!!

[DJ Blindside]

These are the tracks I think I dig the most-
Calyx-follow the leader
JohnB-up all night
RamTrilogy-Titan
Konflict- Messiah

[KerryEllyn]

I agree with body rock... was thinkin bout papa new guinea or how about morning light Or Dillinja nasty ways... Midnight Boh! definitely a goodone. I agree with quite a few. It's hard to narrow it down to 20! I don't think it's all that horrible but of course we all have our lists....

[rapidmc]

wow, that was a trip down memory lane....

I like the list.. I think I have all but one of those tracks on vinyl...


good post!

Life can be so shady.
The way some people try to bring you down.
Why's it got to be so crazy?
Always try to give you the run around.
So I let the music just take control.
Cause it rocks my body.
And it moves my soul.
I can't stop dancing to the beat.
And I just can't help it.
I just can't help it.
Cause music is my life.
It helps me through the night.
MUSIC IS MY LIFE!

glad to see Noisia made the cut... that's all I really cared for. Messiah is good too, but I like the Noisia remix of that one as well.

[Maestro]
