What noise/synth/snare/sample etc. can you not get enough of in a song?

I'm sure most of us have a particular sound in dubstep that we tend to lean towards. I don't necessarily mean an overall sound (melodic, "filthy," chill, etc.), but rather a particular synth or something within the song. Perhaps the unmistakable synth in Rusko's "Woo Boost", The "Skrillex sound" that everyone seems to inexplicably hate, etc.

What are some noises or synths that you just can't get enough of?

For me, it's the "yuh yuh/yai yai (pronounced y-eye)" sound. Hard to describe via text, but it almost sounds like a person saying it. Sometimes its' elongated and growly to sound kind of like a burp lol. Every time I hear this in a song, I fall in love with it.

Examples of what I mean: Captain PANIC! - "Unload!" Flo Rida ft. Sia & Dustin Que - "Wild Ones (Lavi Beats Dubstep Remix)" SKisM - "Kick It ft. Zomboy" - it's brief, but right at 1:53

Share your thoughts! If enough people see this, maybe we can start a thread where we help our fellow redditors find other songs with the noises they love.
