Fun Stuff > BAND
Dance! (Yes there is music with no guitar!)
est:
Man, why is it that we can have a million metal & indie threads for individual bands and whatnot and yet "hip hop" and "dance music" are always two things that seem to get lumped into these all-encompassing threads all by themselves.
That said, I didn't go to (an Australian dance thing) 360 the other week. Didn't think it'd be all that good. I've since downloaded sets by the people involved and think the Felix da Housecat set was fucking immaculate even though I think that most of his normal stuff is pretty hit and miss.
Oh well, you can't see all the good shows, I guess.
MilkmanDan:
I saw Aphex Twin last night, and you best fucking believe that you can dance to it. It was the one of the most mental raves I've ever been to. The entire venue became some sort of mosh pit for Digeridoo and Come to Daddy. But it was a mosh pit populated almost entirely by people on pills, so it was like everybody in the room was trying to hug everyone else at the same time. And let's not even talk about the gabba and rediculously hard Drum n Bass.
That aside, I'm into dance music when it actually means music to throw some serious shapes to, like Jungle / DnB, Techno, Breaks, Dubstep, some House, etc. But I also love the stuff that's various shades of electronica, all the Warp artists and that sort of thing. Everything from Drone to Breakcore really.
All in all, I think my favourite music to dance to is '92-'95 style Jungle. Remarc, DJ Zinc, Renegade Snares, all the Moving Shadow stuff. Also the newer stuff by people like Amit, Paradox, Breakage, Sileni and that lot. Tunes with really edited breaks and sub-bass lines rather than just the 'DnB is faster rave music', midrange distorted bass mentality that has taken over most DnB.
ImRonBurgundy?:
dance music?
McTaggart:
I can't dance. I've tested this at various levels of drunkenness and with all sorts of music. I'll tap my feet and do that silly nodding thing at the drop of a hat but I just can't bring myself to dance.
E. Spaceman:
I can't dance either. I do like my share of non guitar groups though. Not all of them electronic either
