To commemorate the fact that I’ve quit dj-ing (for real this time I think) I’ve decided to put together a few top 10 lists of tracks I used to love playing out. I’ve only included tracks that I could find on youtube so there will be a few that are missing, but it’s only a bit of fun. All lists are in no particular order.
