Dance
Music Has Changed - But It's
Still Fun!
Getting
Dancing Music For Your
Party
Your party
date is allmost here and you
still haven't picked out your
dance music for the guests to
enjoy. What to do? Much planning
goes into organizing a dance
party.
You have to
find the perfect venue, you have
to get the perfect decor, you
have to invite the right people
and have it at the right time. If
you don't have the right dance
music, however, the whole thing
is a waste of time. After all, no
one will be dancing.
Different
Types Of Dance
Music
There are
so many different kinds of
dancing music, so it can be
difficult to decide. Everyone
loves old school, but old-school
means different things to
different people. Usually, people
like the music that they heard
growing up.
For my
generation, this means 80s music.
Coming from Detroit, Motown is
also quite popular, but it
doesn't hold sway over the whole
country.
Techno
Dance Music Idea
As a matter
of fact, techno dacne music is
often one of the safest bets. The
great thing about dancing to
techno is that it is so easy to
trance out. The pounding bass
beats, the relentless rhythm, the
synthetic sounds and the samples
all contribute to a psychedelic
vibration that is hard to resist.
I have seen
the shyest wallflowers lured out
on the dance floor by the beat of
jungle, trance, or house
music.
Of course,
many of my musical DJ friends
take a different approach. For
them, dancemusic is about
combining the old and the new.
This has always been the way that
people thought about making dance
mix music, whether it is in
remixes or mash-ups.
Basically,
they try to pay attention to what
the kids are listening to and
what the last generation was into
at the same time. If you hear it
playing on a cell phone ring
tone, the chances are it will
find a good home in your mix, but
that doesn't mean that you should
only use what's new.
After all,
some of the older songs have
withstood the test of time for a
good reason, and people will
always be happy to hear them
again.
Discover
Music To Dance By Called Hip
Hop
The biggest
thing in music to dance by these
days is Hip Hop. If you leave
that out of the mix, there is no
way you will get the crowd
shaking. This doesn't mean that
you have to keep it new, however.
People will
sometimes get a bigger kick out
of old-school dance music, and
you can score big points with a
few tastefully chosen Grandmaster
Flash numbers. This can help keep
a more positive, upbeat vibe to
the party as well! Now, go and
shake your booty!!
