Note - my top 10 isn't exactly retro :P

 

My top 10 played instrumentals on iTunes are: (because a top 5 just isn't enough)

 

1 Barthezz 'On The Move (Riva Remix)'

2 Agnelli & Nelson 'Everyday'

3 Basto! 'Gregory's Theme'

4 Felix da Housecat 'Thee Anthem (Eric Prydz Remix)

5 Agnelli & Nelson 'El Nino'

6 Ariel 'A9'

7 Eric Prydz & Steve Angello 'Woz Not Woz

8 Armand van Helden & Steve Aoki 'Brrrat!''

9 ATB 'Don't Stop'

10 DJ Quicksilver 'Bellissima'

 

(11 Robert Miles 'Children') - is so low because there are many versions of the song

 

Special mention: Darude 'Sandstorm' :wub:

 

Numbers 6, 8 and 9 have very few words in so can be counted as an instrumental.

 

'Push The Feeling On', 'We No Speak Americano' and 'R U Ready' are almost instrumentals but have words throughout the song, so have been discounted.
