i guess it would've been nice if i mentioned the artists who did the singles (can you tell i pulled this from a text file i keep), but most of you can figure it out.. here's what you might've missed (those were all for 2001) crystal = new order rollout = ludacris rexall = dave navarro worst comes to worst = dilated peoples |

I agree with Titsworth, all those artist kick ass! |

confield gets another vote from me |

I'd have to say Confield, it never ceases to amaze me... hell, it's amazing me right now! Parhelic Triangle is the greatest thing since sliced bread. |
||||||||
|
|

it's incredible how confield can still amaze me after so many listens. maybe it still will in 5 years. ae are really on top of their game at the moment. |

D-MOTHERFUCKING-12????wtf!!!??? Anyway how come nobody mentioned the other two most important two-disc releases of the year???? THE ALTOGETHER - ORBITAL RARE AND REMIXED - BT !!!!!! Nobody mentioned these treasures, and they are JUST as essential as the two disc Druqks is, I'd say. . . |

Dj assault put out a smashing number last year, didn't he? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw who does this Cornfield cd??? Is it a dj mix or what, from the Rephlex or Warp Label??? The only artists I am familiar with from that label is Aphex Twin, so a little more information would be nice, since I'd like to check this supposedly awesome cd out. |

AUTECHRE!! |

BoC - Geogaddi Aphex Twin - 2 Remixes by AFX Aphex Twin - DrukQs Chemical Brothers - Come With Us Lo Fidelity Allstars - Don't Be Afraid Of Love I don't really know what year lotsa stuff was released. If it's good, I listen, regardless of its release date. There, i'm done. |

Orbital would of gotten my vote, for the sole fact that all those b-sides on Disc 2 are amazing, BUT Disc 1 wasn't my forte. Other than that Orbital is the best. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh yes of course Come With Us was great!!!! And also John Digweed in Los Angeles, Global Underground 019 has gotta be the BEST dj mix EVVVVEEERRRr!!!! at least the best progressive HOUSE mix ever!!! Quivver's mix debut Transport 5, was also another killer progressive house dj mix. and the Deep Dish in Moscow (Global Underground 21) is another excellent deep house mix. |

here are some of my favorites: phonem- ilisu boc- geogaddi bogdan raczynski- myloveilove dntel- life is full of possibilities machine drum- now you know |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
oh man orbital 'altogether' was AWFUL, and this is coming from someone who loves orbital. they fell da fuck off, on the real. but the b-sides disc is nice. they're following the release of their first and hopefully only wack album with a greatest hits package this summer. i think that signifies they're at the end of their rope. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm it's simply a matter of perspective, Titsworth. With the Altogether they were trying something new: coming up with commercially palpable material. I think they did a pretty good job. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
isn't that what their first album was about? mainstream techno music? and that album is amazing to this day. i think their pop experiment turned out sour. the david gray track is terrible and most of the instrumentals are utterly forgettable and uninspired. the only song i like is tootled cos i am a fan of the band they sampled for that, tool. and i mostly appreciate the song for novelty sake. |
||||||||

I'd have to say my favorite was Drukqs, but Geogaddi is a very close second. Followed by Go Plastic. I couldn't really get into Vespertine, but I'll think I'll give it another listen soon. And Confield, I haven't really listened to yet. [ducks behind chair] |
||||||||

|
Illuminate with David Gray is one of the saddest songs I've ever heard, and by far the best vocal song they've ever done!!!! |
