I can't point to a single record (though that's possibly more reflective of a more scattered culture than it is my memory) but there's a lot of that arms race in the pop edits phenomenon too, just with "filthiest bass" replaced by "goofiest non-sequitur." The first huge proliferation of those I remember seeing was either pando-era hyperpop like dariacore and some of the 909 Worldwide-sphere's output OR donk edit-type stuff like STRIPE N CO and even HMT Hard Cru. Of course that also begs the question, who's the Pendulum of uptempo pop edits?

who's the Pendulum of uptempo pop edits? Now THAT is a question! I am going to be thinking a lot about this. I actually have a part two of Best Records ever to wreck a genre lined up for next week. But any suggestions beyond that gratefully received!
