A.Mochi – Squeal 3

The beast from Japan.

Omar-S – Triangulum Australe

This is brilliant.  Little more than a tense serious of hospital bleeps.

Enjoy – Seawall (Ricardo Villalobos Remix)

Remember hard house?  If you speed this up 10bpm it sounds like hard minimal.

Just need a touch of imagination, my friends.

Ricardo Villalobos – Hansup

I listened to this minimal beauty for 2 hours consistently when Margaret Thatcher died.  Both Maggie and Ricardo are true heroes of mine, both have had a monumentally positive impact upon my life although for slightly different reasons.  Another complete beauty of epic proportions with a particularly incredibly charming breakdown.  Excellent doorbells too.

Others – Dope Me

Such tough decisions.  Is it minimal or is it underground house?  I think this is closer to minimal, could imagine Ricardo play this but also tINI.  It is really laid back but groovy, with little bits of percussion and odd-sounding piano plinks.  Wonderful.

T.W.I.C.E – Round & Brown (Jun Akimoto & Ittetsu Remix)

I listened to this 5 times in a row, mostly because I kept getting interrupted at work by work.  I love this slow and crawling underground house, with a slightly dark and moody sound.  Hotter than a kangaroo’s backside.  Becoming a huge fan of Ittetsu.

tINI – Room 305

It doesn’t do too much but that is the beauty of it, harmonious rounded percussion stabs and minimal vocals.

Green Velvet & Harvard Bass - Lazer Beams

This is so much of a nuclear weapon that I could almost be tempted not to put this up here as it is a total dancefloor destroyer.  So good I am not going to say anything more about it - just listen and if you are a DJ play it and watch destruction like you are watching televised war.

Rufus Wainwright – Tiergarten (Supermayer Lost In The Tiergarten Mix)

This is 13 and a half minitues of magical musical beauty, the vocals kind of remind me of something from a Beatles track (though not really having listened to them much I am possibly wrong), and then it goes into this twisted electronic adventure.

I'm not sure the label of 'minimal' quite does it justice.

Aumrec - Injune Inlove

Yes – this is what I want to be hearing!  Do not fuck with this record.  An absolutely tech-house smash to send the dancefloor crazy.

Full version not on Youtube - only first 1-2 minutes of the below.

Stanislav Tolkachev – Heartbeat

Tearful techno – the wonderful Nina Kraviz says it makes her cry when she plays it.  It does have a lot of sad emotion bundled up with it, I would play it on a long aeroplane journey back from being dumped by a woman I was in love with.

Melchoir Productions – Let’s Go Deep

Deep and bouncy little house track, a catchy number.  Though it is probably too catchy to be a top tune tomorrow.

Silky Sunday – Friend (Ripperton And Alex Attias Remix)

Underground house to get your head lost within, 8 pieces of something more beautiful than a North Korean prostitute.

Fenin – None Of Them (Robags Berfa Lubb Dubbse)

I love the enchanting dreamy whispering minimal featured on Robag’s work.

A very fitting 500th tune for my top tunes blog - not counting the one that was deleted with subsequent warning received from the Google Nazi's.

Locussolus – Berghain (Darkroom Mix)

This is build up techno with the autopilot direction of the type of dirty aeroplanes that the European Union are trying to ban.  A beautiful 10 minutes long.

Immense.
