I missed the bus with a proper countdown of our top tracks and remixes of this year... so instead I'll drop to you all my favorite 'hearted' tracks from hypem this year. Since there's no denying the power of hype machine in moving tracks into (and out of) the popular scene... its normally a good indicator of influential tracks. Especially those that have tickled my fancy for so many hours this year (especially while bored at work).
Also a big thanks out to Clayton for allowing us use of all these great party shots from throughout this great year that was!
Peace bitches... and happy new year!

bestuvoate: Little Boots + Fake Blood
And here it is! Number One! How many of you could've guessed it? Little Boots had a tremendous year exploding on the scene with her Tenori-On by her side. Live performances and youtube video's allowed the world to fall in love with her talent. And even more fortunately, a slew of remixes gave her voice an even wider scope of listeners.
What is it about 'mysterious' producer/remixer this year? Have the worlds best all secretly been involved in side projects? Maybe they are all machines that have gained consciousness and now create white hot magma? Whatever it is, or whoever they are, Fake Blood is the best at it.
And you know that little 'Fake Blood' vocal work they include in all of their remixes? That's all taken from individual sound samples from the original track. That's not Little Boots saying 'Fake Blood' before the break, but instead probably dozens of vocal syllable samples and mixed it together perfectly.

Flak Attack
I'm pleased to introduce to you Mr Mark Davies. Coming at us from Bristol in the UK, he'll be better known as Flak Attack. With a deep bank of influences ranging from early electronica to indie pop to 90's alternative... Mark has been messing with music production for most of his young life, but only started proper within the last year.
His style isn't yet defined, but it'll evolve... currently he fits the mold of the current blog house scene with plenty of filtered four-on-the-floor beats. Surprisingly he doesn't DJ regularly, but his tunes could easily fit in any dj set... so try these out at home kiddies. 320 kbs!

Electro All-Stars: Vier
That's four you idiots, learn some culture. Its time once again for soquitcherbitchen's pseudo-monthly collection of electro that's either too old to post as new, too good to miss, or simply too good to have actually been submitted to me. Whichever way you feel like seeing it, all these tracks are hotter than sex.
Alternative content
Mp3: Walter Meego - Forever (Van She Tech Remix) (right-click to save) [start things off with some chitown love, the seemingly ELO inspired wisdoms of Walter Meego are fittingly electro-fied by Van She Technologic. Have you ever heard a bad Van She Tech rub? No is the correct answer, and Discodust agrees]
Alternative content
Mp3: Totally Michael - Winona (Miami Horror Remix) (right-click to save) [Totally Michael basically relives my adolescence from watching Beetlejuice and falling in love a young and innocent Winona Ryder. Beautious!]
Alternative content
Mp3: Justice - Planisphere (Mmmatthias Remix) (right-click to save) [I guess I could've just posted the original Planisphere, but I'd rather post the one that sounds good (oh shut up flamers... the original mixes are all effin awesome, but I've always liked everything that Mmmatthias touches, so I gave him the nod here)]
Alternative content
Mp3: OH SNAP!! - I'm Too Fat To Be A Hipster (right-click to save) [maybe one of the best songs ever created. Ever. I'm not overweight by any streatch of the imagination, but it's the overall message that makes this song unique... you perpetrain' posers better re-cog-nize. haha, and i love the self-made echo fade effect]
Alternative content
Mp3: Cornershop - Brimful of Asha (Fatboy Slim Remix) (right-click to save) [everybody needs a bosom for a pillow, everybody needs a bosom... never were there more truer words spoken]
Alternative content
Mp3: Daft Punk - Robot Rock (Soulwax Remix) (right-click to save) [not much to say about this other than soulwax is totally awesome. This is off last year's remix album (buy here). Go watch Part of the Weekend Never Dies (buy here) and enjoy more ish from the flavorful scene of hipster/raver-never-ending-debauchery]
Alternative content
Mp3: Little Boots - Stuck On Repeat (Fake Blood Remix) (right-click to save) [is there a more beautiful and talented woman in electronica than Little Boots? The mysterious Fake Blood (has anyone figured out who he/she/they are yet?) does what you've come to expect]
Alternative content
Mp3: Buddy Akai - Cut Me Up (Villains Remix) (right-click to save) [how can i do an all-star post without including something from Villains? Here's a banger (first time I used that in this post!) in case you missed it the first time it dropped]
