House Track of 2006

[dave mcnasty]

If you had to pick one track that you remembered best from 2006 what would it be?

I'd have to say a few that come to mind for me are:

World Hold On - Bob Sinclar
No More Conversations - Mylo (even though it was released at the end of 2005...it didnt really kick in till 2006)
or
Things You Say (Dirty South Remix) - Cicada

[rustybob]

I think I'd have to go with No More Conversations; still one of my favourite songs. Things You Say would be next, and then World Hold On. They're all really close though.

[cheeseburger]

first half of 2006 - world hold on and patt stick out as big monsters

other ones.. lost d ramirez, bodyrox, and not to forget proper education.. biggest record of the last few months

huge year for the sweedish mafia (especially axwell), big year for jask, another successful year for deep dish and sinclars album did super well.

but the record of the year has to be world hold on.. loved most of the remixes too


I keep editing and wanting to add more

I'm happy with the amount of music that was pumped out this year, and look forward to some different sounds as electro is on the way OUT!!

[wishbone]

I still think Bodyrox - Yeah yeah is holding it down right now. fedde le grand did his bit for a long time there, too, on top of those mentioned.

And I think i'm the only person who was never that crazy for World Hold On.

[Clayton.]

World hold on was a good track but i don't think i could say it was the track of 2006. I couldn't choose just 1 track.

What i did like is the 'electro is on the way OUT!!' comment.

[Zêus]

"World Hold On" just seems to have such a presence, and I've heard it played everywhere.

No More Conversations ~ Mylo Remix is also up there.

No one mentioned Memory Cell which is still climbing the charts.

i have to get defensive here.. in march i told john and called this tune of the year. (something along the lines of.. how long till this is a breaks remix.. etc)

It was a huge cross over hit and i'm curious if any of you guys have heard the original on a large system.

exceeder was huge.. so was rej.. so was that lost remix.. and patt (party all the time) and i can't believe no one has mentioned that


I guess that's the beauty.. everyone has their pic. But for me.. it has to be world hold on



edit: i should totally make a "daddys favorites" cd for my favs for 2006.

ditto that.. good riddance to electro!!!!
hopefully its gonna make way for some sick sick house though.. this year has not been too impressive to me....

as for songs... i think world hold on was deffinalty my fav track of the year...
best new recent release... fish go deep.. the cure & the cause (so fresh sounding)

[cheeseburger]

amen
not that big on the fish go deep myself.. but to each their own

so many quality records veni... start digging through your old cds and mp3s. So many - and jask had a huge year, he's pretty much one of the main faces over at traxsource.. they should change it to jasksource

[cheeseburger]

some other top contenders

changes
the egg
this is Miami
speechless
dark mountain group
lucky heather

and on and on

[FeelGood]

ya jask was awesome this year... i dont know.. i found that when i went out alot this year it was everyone playing the same shit... so i guess i just got bored of it pretty quick... im just achin for something fresh sounding..

[mojo]

great thread for anyone out of the loop looking for some fresh house.

thnx everyone.

I also agree with the "down with electro" movement. It is crap.

[Kraig]

You know what's sad? Jask was one of the major successes this year yet I bring him out and we were know where's near sold out. -- And that was in a 250 person club.

And you wonder why promoters don't want to take risks on not as well known talent like Jask. Fucking lame mainstream Vancouver.

World Hold On will definitely take the cake for the biggest tune overall. -- Earnshaw's mix of it is one of my favs.

i called that earlier :p

and kudos to kenny for mentioning the egg (of which i'll assume you're going with guetta vs. the egg's track).

Was it just me or did exceeder not get much play out here? I loved it but I didn't think it had huge exposer?

[r a m a z e]

world hold on


but my fave is

Gui Boratto - Like you [SuperMayer mix]

[Jonny Dubbs]

Mossa - Town Hall

[cheeseburger]

shameless promo
"My House, My Fridays Rule" - tune in now

[InSoMnIaK*]

trentemoller - polar shift

[dave mcnasty]

teken - danny freakazoid

though i havent heard too many ppl play it

at night - dave spoon

the egg and changes were pretty big too

[ebbomega]

I dunno if this was this year, but Justice vs. Simian - We Are Your Friends gets my vote for funkiest bassline of the last 5 years.

edit: My obscure vote is Etienne De Crecy - F**K

And my cheesy vote goes to Coldplay - Talk (Thin White Duke Remix)

I may stand alone on this but his Summer Rain is a commendable pick from the more Soulful palette.

And from the mainstream, I'd have to go with:
Filterfunk - Message In A Bottle (Some remixes work better than others)
Michael Gray - Borderline
And the more recent Junior Jack - I See You Dancing (which may actually be a short-lived sentiment).

But I'd have to agree with just about everyone here on Bob Sinclair. This year he definitely comes to the forefront.

[ffa]

World Hold On - Bob Sinclar for sure.

A lot of stuff mentioned here, such as Mylo, D Remirez, Thin White Duke, Justice, etc... is not really house... more on the electro tip. When I think of house, I think of stuff on Defected records, Subliminal, Naked Music, OM, etc... But yea, Bob Sinclar always makes killer house music.

-f.

[Bobby_T]

Electro is house for people who don't like that cheesy funky bullshit that we have been forced to listen to for the past 5 years.

<3 Electro for making me like house again!

Long live the grindy dirty basslines!
