Great topic lands end, it's like you read my mind. I just put together a compilation of my favorite Old Tunes tracks last night, and I was gonna start a topic similar to this. It was really tough to come up with just 10, and these are in no particular order cause they're all so good.
Finity (A Few Old Tunes) - Makes me think of the arrival of Springtime. That first sunny morning when you can actually walk outside without a jacket and hear the birds sing again. I like it and it makes me happy.
Skimming Stones (A Few Old Tunes) - I must've heard this close to a thousand times and I never get sick of it. One of the best from AFOT and Maxima.
I Will Get It Tattooed (A Few Old Tunes) - Makes me think of a parallel universe where up is down, down is up, and everything is backwards.
King Of Carnival (A Few Old Tunes) - I have no specific reason for liking this track, it's just good!
5-9-78 (A Few Old Tunes) - See above post by Goiter Sanchez. I'm with ya buddy.
Track 6 (Old Tunes Vol. 1, Side A) - One of the only tracks that has ever brought tears to my eyes. Also sampled in Helios' Seven Forty Seven Remix.
Track 13 (Old Tunes Vol. 1, Side A) - This illustrates perfectly why I love their music so much. Straight up fucking raw, destroyed sounds twisted into a dark and dreary atmosphere.
Track 12 (Old Tunes Vol. 1, Side B) - This is just a damn good track, dark and crunchy!
Mukhinabaht (Old Tunes Vol. 2) - Another great skittering, crunchy beat. A sign of good things to come on MHTRTC, kind of reminds me of "Pete Standing Alone"
Zander Two (Old Tunes Vol. 2) - Sounds like it was made on a crappy 1980 model Casio keyboard, but I like it.
