Do you party was unable to summon a proper best of '08 on New Year's Day for reasons of partying, so here it is a week late. Consider this less of a best of, and more of a "hey, here's a bunch of really awesome songs from last year." I'm sure that I will hit myself when I realize stuff I forgot or didn't have time for. 2008 was an awesome year for the dance music.
Nothing is ranked, though you will find a few ramblings of me raving about how at least four songs are the best thing ever. Forgive the early choppiness. New year's resolution: come earlier for equipment setup for show for smoother listening pleasures.
