Dancing

watching dubstep fans nervously dance to Funky at beyond is funnier tho.

apart from me. i'm a good dancer/all round mover.
:)

Funky is the most instant danceable house that's been around for years. i thought i could dance, i thought my moves were cool, they were cool to do anyway, then someone showed me a video of me dancing at our night, hit a fucking redner! still i think it's just like hearing your own voice, i think it sounds absolutely awful, yet people tell me it's nice, not that anyone has said im a good dancer.. fuck it though it's the best craic ever.

I don't really get this whole 'you can't dance to dubstep/DNB' thing.

Unless shaking your hips is mandatory.

sometimes
I've only been to a few dubstep shows but they were all notable in their almost total lack of dancing.


yeah sometimes, i've noticed a kind of bowing / headbanging towards the dj going on which makes me not want to go to dubstep things. Makes sense cos the grey sonics of some dubstep and metal are the same, the mood is the same, and the speed too, but by god its so passive.

Saying that i dance my ass off to it usually.

these aren't really like footwork and more localized rap dance craze type things. There are some from Kansas City and a few other places I'll have to dig up

Found this quite randomly but it's some good dancing for my money


All the more difficult to do it slow I reckon.

i remember coming across a video, possibly from colombia but def south american, with a dance style based around rhythmically colliding asses and hips... is this a recognised style or was that one of my milder dreams?

Do you mean choque, choke. If you do then there's some details here and some writing around it. Vids about half way into the post.
