I always thought it was a matter of priorities. To grow a scene, you have to get people who aren't dancing to try it out. This is best done by showing that it isn't a dead dance done to dead music. The music should be changed often, highlight the variety of genres the dance can cover, and above all,...

I did play a cut of Makka na Bara to Gin Tonic from Katamari Damacy once. I don't have it handy so I don't remember the tempo, but it's outside all but the most hard-core Lindy Hopper's speed if I remember correctly. I had to cut it down to about 4 1/2 minutes as well -- I think the entire track is...

It's much easier to correct a new DJ than an old one. If they are new, you can give them all sorts of pointers, and in fact, Carol Shepard gives the Friday night people some really good guidelines. It's the ones who've been at it who are the most incorrigible. What usually happens is that the dancer...

I'm finding myself selecting a bunch of samples and listening on their player to see if anything catches my ear. Even though they get the info wrong a lot, they are an incredible resource and worth it every time I stumble onto something cool.
Anybody else use their site for music info?

Part of the reason live music is exciting for people is because the songs/solos are always different; sometimes playing with the familiar and other times just spontaneous creativity. Even if the band does a straight cover, it trumps the fidelity of any recording. You would actually have to suck eno...

Re: Did you ever belong to a record club?
There was also a persistent rumor that "record club pressings" were inferior to the copies that went into retail stores. I never saw the proof. OF course not. All it was was the rights to do their own pressings in bulk, and a centralized distribution system to move the product. As explici...

An epilogue to this thread. My sister got married on July 11th, and the DJ was playing his laptop, impressing himself with the ability to match beats. Must have been a friend of my brother-in-law. But he didn't or couldn't play the Filipino or Thai CD that my dad had requested, and as a result, my p...
