What kind of music/artists/songs do you think make the perfect dance-ish type party? Interpret it as you will, but I'm not really envisioning a huge rave.

The Libertines!

The Faint

Haddaway (OBVIOUSLY)

No matter what you're gonna follow it up with, Kid Koala - Skanky Panky has always worked.

Grismath, download this and listen to "Snake In DJ Booth."

I thought it was dancy.

new gorillaz cd

Hip hop, anything else feels awkward to dance to

I always feel awkward dancing to hip hop.

Q and Not U - Wonderful People

LCD Soundsystem

Get Low - Lil Jon

Eric Prydz - Call on Me

Snyder

>.>
<.<

Trash80!!! <--- 8-bit grooves

[QUOTE=Connection Problem]Eric Prydz - Call on Me[/QUOTE]

omg copier omq

Blondie - Heart of Glass
Q and Not U - A Line in the Sand
Q and Not U - Wet Works
Q and Not U - Beautiful Beats
Q and Not U - Book of Flags
Gang of Four - Not Great Men*
Rolling Stones - Miss You
New Order - Blue Monday

Those are some of my favorite dance songs. A bit Q and Not U heavy, but.. they're amazing.

*Pretty much anything from the first album, I guess...

Let me be the first to suggest Safety Dance by Men Without Hats.

House musik, omgz mmmm <3

kaskade pwns j00

Franz Ferdinand

M&H Band - Popcorn

(Or just any non-Crazy Frog Popcorn. Indiancorn?)

Yes! Just put their album on a loop.

I was going to say that.

Every girl I've ever met can't resist shaking her butt to a little DnB (half the appeal of it for me)

I recommend John B's "Trance 'n Bass" album for starters. Also, Freaky Flow's "The Envy" album is good too.

Guarantees the maximum amount of female booty shaking that is healthy for young men

cd I mixed, free of charge...

!!! (pronounced Chik Chik Chik) is the ultimate dance-punk band. Just listening to it makes you want to get up and dance right where you are.

...there's a click language dance-punk band?!

the white stripes

well i raved to them when i saw them last, maybe i'm in the minority of people who rave to rock n roll.

The Killers of course., but not the whole album.

So... what made it on to your dance party playlist, Grismath?

My party isn't until the 15th.

80's pop :p

USE SONGS FROM MY LIST GAWD

nothing beats teh funkiness

:\

Is a throwing eachother into a moshpit considered dancing?

Considering that it's mostly arrhythmic, I'd say no.
