As the year winds down, it's time to pick the best tunes of 2007. We asked five of Vancouver's finest DJs to name their candidates.

Flipout

The New Bent Tuesdays at the Wild Coyote

Get Fresh Thursdays at the The Standard

Baby Grand Fridays at The Modern

Big Up Saturdays at Plush

Common featuring Dwele "The People"

"This song is just ridiculous to me. The Gil Scott-Heron sample and Kanye [West] paying homage to J Dilla's production, plus Dwele, plus Common's flow and nonelementary lyrics made the song give me shivers the first few listens."

DJ Leanne

George Wednesdays at George Ultra LoungeOasis Fridays at Oasis

Bassnectar featuring Kristina Maria "Yo! (Speaker Junk's Jackin' Brazilian Rave remix)"

"This track rocks every party and blew the roof off of the Miami Winter Music Conference. I was excited to bring the South Beach heat up north to our fantastic local house heads."

Snailrider

Modeselektor featuring Puppetmastaz "The Dark Side of the Sun"

"This in-your-face, down-and-dirty hit is taking the electronic music scene to new levels. Viva Modeselektor!"

Kuma

Art Of Beatz Thursdays at midnight on CFRO 102.7FM

Mala "Lean Forward"

"Avoiding monotonous half-step skank for the kind of rhythmic danger that makes dub-step truly special, this dread-garage anthem never left my bag all year."

Jay Auto

Mark Ronson featuring Ol' Dirty Bastard and Tiggers "Toxic (Paul Nice remix)"

"This was the year of Ronson, from his work with Lily Allen to producing 'Rehab' for Amy Winehouse, but this remix of a cover of Britney Spears's 'Toxic' kicks it up another notch, featuring a great horn section, trumpet riffs galore, and some vintage ODB."
