We asked our man Hissy Fit to give us his take on 2010 and he has given us a stellar selection of beats to get into. He also has a new EP out now on Swing and Skip called “Berry”. You can pick the whole thing up here and also grab the “Berry Dubby Dub” tune below.

Now onto his favourite beats from the year….

Hissy Fit – Top 10 of 2010

1. Harmonic 313 feat. Wiley – Scar

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

This song is just so good. That bassline is just so perfect and Wiley is as reliable as ever. I’m hoping grime will replace brostep as the aggro music of choice on dancefloors in 2011.

2. Hot City – Another Girl

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Big obvious tune – the type of thing some producers would slag off then secretly try to recreate. It just bursts out of the speakers.

3. Joy Orbison – Ladywell

Joy Orbison in good tune non-shocker! Not much like his old stuff but every bit as good.

4. James Blake – Postpone

Beautiful tune. Some day everybody’s going to realise James Blake doesn’t make dance music, but until that point, fill yer boots!

5. Rusko – Woo Boost (subskrpt edit)

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

A Rusko song, oh no! The original is just plod-plod-plod but this mix really bounces – it’s a good brash counterpoint to Another Girl.

6. MJ Cole – Thekla Rhythm

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

This whole release is great, but this track, of sharp rhythms and techno sounds, is the pick of the litter.

7. Jacques Greene – (Baby I Don’t Know) What You Want

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Jacques Greene might be Montreal’s best producer and this is probably his best track. I just wish he’d play some gigs in Montreal as Jacques Greene instead of – or in addition to – his other names.

8. Skinny Bones – Road to Axum

Road to Axum by skinnybones

Skinnybones is part of Montreal’s ESL Collective. I once asked ESL’s Bowly what Skinnybones’ productions were like and he said “Percussive!” I said “Can you be more specific?” and he replied “No!”. I laughed and asked the man himself what his own stuff was like and he gave the same answer. It’s the right answer, incidentally. Nobody sounds like this guy.

9. Ramadanman – Tempest

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Rama’s productions are the perfect balance of eccentric and dancefloor, and this one has just the right balance of floaty, atmospheric bits and bumping drums.

10. Seiji – Straylight

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

He was good in Bugz In The Attic and he’s great here. So perfectly staccato – stiff yet fluid.
