dance & music in the same breath, it's a contradiction in itself

& decks aint for me after trying them

& after hearing only one of the mentioned names yes I would write them off

however I have sat through numerous parties & heard numerous dance recordings & it don't do it for me except St. Germain-----they rock

Dance they said!!

As far as I've seen (and this is VERY limited, but this modern concept of dance is SERIOUSLY flawed). THe original concept was for a couple to touch, meet, interact - groove - TOGETHER!! (as a couple - of ANY variety).

Today what do they do? . . . . . 'Figit' (and to me - looks farsical) to a moronic, bass heavy, electronically generated PULSE!!!! and think it's GREAT. All produced so blending from one sound to another is EASY!!)

REAL dance is a SKILL. An art form in itself. A poety in motion. TWO people moving as ONE.

This four to the floor, insipid, distillation of what dance used to be about, is a joke. And the sounds (note I don't use the term music) is generated by the push button, looped sample/groove parasites who's only talent is to spot another bland, robotic PULSE - (very clever, what a telent!!)

Not for me chaps.

I thrive on musicality, un-predictable, musical INTEREST. Innovation.

I AIN'T hearing very much of this so far.

**Reev** · 19-Sep-06, 00:19

...............i js have to say, DANCE DANCE DANCE

boombox me baby

**K dragon** · 19-Sep-06, 01:57

death in vegas, i wouldnt say they were dance directly but my fave album of theirs is the cortino sessions.

the whole album was recorded in a hotel room.

i found it amazing. lever street was a fave of mine.

and just for the record.....

their does not seem to be a lot of respect on this local forum.

its very disturbing.

but i guess when some of the biggest egos in caithness meet in one place, thats what happens.

are musicians born egotistical or am i not a true musician.......must go and ponder that while i make myself an absinthe.

im not the biggest fan of dance music (a bit too thumpy thumpy with alvin and the chipmonks on vocals all the time) but i am amazed at hip-hop dj's eg mixmaster mike who plays with the beastie boys.

In my own opinion id pick hip-hop over dance anyday, at least with hip-hop u can tap ur feet to the beat without the neccesity to wave your arms around with glows sticks wrapped between ur fingers.

dance is too dull and repetitive these days./ back in 93 onwards to about 2000 it was great. cafe del mar, abc, underworld, early moby, chemical brothers, and many others.

it went from trance to dance to pants.

i was a techno trance freak before i got into rock.

well heres a thing and you will ALL thank me for this.

Theres a clue in the name DANCE music, which suggests the part of the artform that you lot can't see.

I speak as one who beat the 'lighthouse collective' a few times in the top 10 MP3's of Caithness when mp3.com was free (lol)

What did I beat them with?

propa house music baby

Rob you know from meeting me at my little sister's wedding that I'm always up for a bit of production work. Getting pretty familiar with my way around Ableton Live now as well. Shame I'm working down here in Aberdeen now
