These are songs that make me want to dance. I don't have a lot of pure dance music on my computer but regardless this is stuff that makes me wanna get up and dance!
tracklist
| 1 | Franz Ferdinand : Do You Want To |
|
This track is a great opener. I don't really think it would work anywhere else on this mix. It drives - plus humour!

| 2 | Morningwood : Nth Degree |
|
Honestly I was obsessed with this song for awhile. I think that this song following "Do You Want To" contributes most to the atmosphere that the tape has set so far and also I hate it when you have to like, STOP dancing - it's better, for me, at least, to be able to maybe stop for a second and then go straight back to it, I guess. So you have to be very careful when making transitions from say, Morningwood type-stuff to hip hop and then to electronica type songs.

| 3 | The Art Goblins : Johnny Dean |
|
This song is really hard to find, but it's really, really happy! It goes, "I wanna be Johnny Dean, stepping out with a britpop queen..." and it starts out with a great keyboard intro leading into a really sort of disco-techno-mix awesomefest. I dunno what's wrong with this song but when I first discovered it I listened to it probably 30 times in a row.

| 4 | Scissor Sisters : Laura |
|
"Laura" besides being a fantastic song in itself and an essential building block to the mix, serves as a reasonable transition between Art Goblins and the M.I.A. track coming next.

| 5 | M.I.A. : Galang |
|
This song is just very driven and M.I.A. just has this energy about her that is present in the song that makes you want to get up and get down. I am aware that I will never make a living as a music journalist writing like that, but I'm listening to the song, and it's distracting like woah.

| 6 | K-OS : B-Boy Stance |
|
Pure hip hop, this song inspires pop-locking out the arse. Of course, if you're not talented in this field you can always just flail around like a spastic loser, like I do. Either way, it doesn't matter, because you HAVE to dance to this song. My favorite part is the interlude in which singer guy goes, "I'm just a b-boy... and it brings me joy... I'm just a b-boooy..."

| 7 | The Chemical Brothers : Block Rockin' Beats |
|
This song starts off a little slower than some of the others but that's ok cos it's the first... well strictly it's the first actual "electronica" song on the mix. This song is so freaking great. I can't even explain it, you just have to listen to it if you haven't already, then you will know why it is on this tape and you will know what I mean, man.

| 8 | Head Automatica : Brooklyn Is Burning |
|
God, Head Automatica are so fun and dancey it's unbelieveable!!! Okay enough with the spazzing. I was originally going to put this after the K-OS track but then I decided that it would make more sense if Chemical Brothers came first.

| 9 | Gorillaz : Dare |
|
I think most people have heard this song and thusly understand why it must be on this mix. For awhile I refused to like Gorillaz - I dunno, some childish thing about having to have at least SOME groups that my peers liked and I didn't - but eventually came round. This song is love.

This one is just good enough to warrant a plus. I'm not much of a dancer, but it would an okay normal playlist anyhow, specially with the Franz kicking it off.

Ooooh... Love it!
Although that fucking 'Dare' song started to annoy the shit out of me a while back because it was being played everywhere I turned. And the video? Total crap. If that guy's disembodied head was in my room, I'd totally kick his pudgy cheeks in.

Hm i dont know most of the songs on this mix, but you've got good descriptions, and the chemical brothers song is rad, and def the gorillaz song.. glad you came around and decided to like them because Damon Albarn is badass, and anything Del is EVER involved in is golden.. i'm convinced he has the midas touch.
