I'd say A Shocking Hobby ranks up there among his best works ever for sure. A must for the people who starting loving Speedy J cos of Loudboxer and/or Collabs.
As for alltime favourite Speedy J-track, it'd be either Grogono or Pannik (Remix), not taking his other aliases into account.
A fucking mad track Ive never found an ID for... it was played last on his Pornographic Records set in Silo, Belgium last year.

great thread because i've always wanted to know more about this guy. i don't know much about him, but what i've heard my fav is...
Speedy J - G-Spot (J-Spot Mix)
i know he's got a lot of stuff out there. i'm particularly interested in his work that is a little more cross genre into the stuff that i usually listen to...so i guess a little more tech housey or progressive...any suggestions for those types of tunes that he's done lemme know

From what I know, probably Sevntrak; I love its urgency and intensity. But there's a lot of his work I haven't yet heard, particularly his earlier, less abrasive production, which would probably appeal to me more.
I've been meaning to focus on Speedy J's discography for a while now, but kept putting it off in favor of other directions. Thanks for the thread.

For non-Collabs and quite different Speedy J, go for G Spot. Or alternatively, you could check his ambient releases on Fax for something COMPLETELY different from the norm.
