cos its the only tune which wouldn't send you absolutely mental after about 100 plays.
This is the only correct answer. Anything else would drive you absolutely insane. But if you are in a situation where you really do have to pick one song to listen to for the rest of your life... you're probably insane already.

Velvet Underground - Sister Ray

Tangerine Dream - Birth of Liquid Plejades
Charles Mingus - Trio & Group Dancers
Carla Bley - Hotel Overture
A bunch of Beethoven movements

But I'd have to go for Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring
this is way too short for me

that's a hard question. too many tunes that i hold dear to me.

I guess in order to take a little bit of everything and to keep my mind in the state of mind that would keep me sane: Kubrick - Jizz

Something by Earth or Sunn 0))).

It'd be like tinnitus after awhile and you'd block it out.

NWA - Fuck the police.

no but really, i honestly don't know, my CD collection is full of Metal/Hardcore aswell as Hip-Hop/Rap My record collection is full of bass music, every day i'll like one album more than another, i can't pick just one.. but based on what i've been playing ALOT over the last few weeks.. Hijak - Dally / LD Clock Watching would win it.. or even Mala - Forgive
went with a bass tune based on the fact that the majority of my metal cd collection is enjoyed far more as an album whereas when your pressing a double sided 12" you are more or less buying the 12" for 1 or 2 tracks at max.. if that makes justified sense.

Yep I could agree with that, anything from Deep Medi would be listenable for a long time before I went insane.

Every time I click with mouse in FL Studio piano roll I end up writing melodies like that song. It's like some holy symmetry of the intervals. Their every song does them the same way. It's like Mala's "Forgive", really. The sigh @ 4:42 and the hip-hop drums after that is the sickest fucking drop I swear.

wait how did I really think I could do for an eternity without smoking a fat spliff to Phil Collins dub :a:

such a tune, Sleep in its entirety is just a stellar composition, if you go by the cd release you technically can also listen to monheim and "they don't sleep on the beach anymore" :6:

It's interesting that a lot of people are naming tunes outside of EDM...

i was thinking this. probably couldn't go for any dubstep/bass tune, would definitely go insane. i couldn't pick one at all..

actually i'd put all my iTunes library into one long mix, can that count?
