Top 3 tracks - 2011 edition
Remember your favourite tunes from last year? Well four months late, here’s a roundup of what the Japanese crew were listening to in 2011. Once again, the number of DJs playing freeform has fallen, but at least we’ve seen some new faces like raqhow and Le Dos-on (who’ll make his Top 3 debut this year, I suppose), while the selections here show that the remaining DJs are pushing some really quality sounds. Dust off memories of yesteryear, and feel free to throw in your own choices at the end of the post.

Thanks all, some nice lists here!
Fury Theme would have been my no.4, and great shout on Stockholm Syndrome, forgot about that…
Lost Soul’s PVC remix wasn’t bad, but we’d really have a killer tune if Nomic ever gets the chance to do a version - imagine the breakdown

Hey, Plasma, whatever happened to COGI? I’d be interested in check his top3, as well. (if possible, of course)

I did ask him, but at the time he said that he hadn’t been keeping track of new tunes and nothing really came to mind. Funnily enough though, I was going to ask him for some dark psy recommendations, so maybe there’ll be something to go up here eventually
