I finally catched up with all my sleep, my stomach feels like I can now go without food for 2 weeks, which means it’s time to get active again! I normally planned this post for the last week of 2010, but I completely lost track with my “schedule” so here it is, the best tracks of 2010 by your votes!

It’s the first time we did something like this, but it’s always cool to see some responds and feedback from weekly readers, we got 100+ people sharing their top 3 of 2010 which made me end up with 233 different tracks voted for! It’s clearly that our visitors have very variate tastes, which is very cool for us! Because our goal is anything but being mainstream, we just do our thing. Because the very variate votes, it took rather long too see a top 10 appear, but here are the results:

01. Duck Sauce – Barbara Streisand
02. Doctor P – Big Boss
03. Boys Noize – Yeah!

Unexpected top 3? Well yeah, actually it is. Barbara Streisand of course not being it still is huge in Belgium after all that airtime, but how bored you get of the track you still catch yourself singing along with the tune. Then Doctor P with his track Big Boss, dubstep was probably the biggest hype in 2010 and Doctor P did bring us one of the more commercial and therefore popular dubstep tracks. The biggest surprise for me is number 3, don’t get me wrong this track deserves this top 3 spot in my opinion but I had no clue this track was so huge for the rest of the “scene”

04 – 06. Doctor P – Sweet Shop
04 – 06. Mumbai Science – Ancova
04 – 06. Tiga – You Gonna Want Me (Hey Today! Remix)

Doctor P yet again, dubstep a hype in 2010? you bet. Than there is the revelation of 2010: Mumbai Science, they were popular as Project Cyborg in Belgium, but then they took over the world as Mumbai Science. Well deserved spot in the list! Tiga – YGWM (Hey Today! Remix) took ages to be released and everybody already heard it enough before it’s release on Turbo Recordings.

07 – 09. Bart B More – Brap
07 – 09. Erol Alkan & Boys Noize – Lemonade
07 – 09. Swedish House Mafia – One

Brap! When I first this track I seriously thought: “Why the hell is everybody liking this track? It’s crap!” but it simply grows on you and hits you right in the stomach when it’s being played at those big partys. Lemonade then again was love at first sight, two of my idols combining forces, no way this could have gone wrong. SHM – One, … most people love it some not really, I’m not the biggest fan and I prefer the Congorock remix far more (that’s why I “accidentally linked that one, woooops)!

10 – 12. Cassius – I Love You So
10 – 12. Gonzales – I Am Europe (Djedjotronic Remix)
10 – 12. Magnetic Man – Perfect Stranger

I Love You So is one of my favourite tracks of 2010, simple and effective, I’m only bumped out the App was only made for iphone device and not for android devices. Gonzales also one of my favourite artists of 2010, making me completely in love with the piano. One of the best albums of 2010 as well by the way, must have. And “last” but not least, no dubstep hype without Magnetic Man!

So this was your top tracks of 2010, this what you all expected? I think in generally it pretty much fits what was going on in 2010. I could go on and on about why some tracks did do well in 2010 and why some didn’t but this post is already going out of proportion and I need to get working on those first posts of 2011. Enjoy 2011 and I hope we can entertain you guys as good as we did in 2010! Big big love, the GetHypedOnThis team!
