The Beatport sales charts are often dominated by the latest international club smashes, but its vault of music runs deep and covers a wide variety of artists and sounds, which is why XLR8R has been asked to curate a special two-week series of Beatport charts by some of our favorite DJs and producers. Brooklyn beatmaker FaltyDL may be affiliated with the nebulous world of bass music, but in recent years he’s applied his meticulous methodology to tracks that could be labeled as garage, house, techno, and more. He’s also stepped up his DJ game, and here are 10 of his favorite tools for the dancefloor.
1. Nightmares On Wax “Damn” (Warp Records)
2. Anstam “Baldwin” (50 Weapons)
3. Anthony Shakir “The Floorfiller (Skudge’s Floor Killer Version)” (Rush Hour)
4. 2562 “Cheater” (When In Doubt)
5. DJ Nate “Call Me When You’re Sober” (Planet Mu)
