the only time i ever really felt weird about dancing to this was after the chromeo show when flosstradamus was djing and they dropped dead prez's 'hip-hop' and all of my bougie white self-loathing and self-consciousness abt race rose to the surface as every dude in the 80% white audience started chanting along to 'white folx say it controls your brain'

haha i can 1-up you on that one -- i saw dead prez @ intonation fest and they had fred hampton jr come up on stage

you know probably these questions only even arise cause dance music has by far the highest aspie ceiling - once that dawned internet all bets were off - in fact im not sure any of this shit even exists irl

that AC/DC track that deej posted is a perfect example of my issue with most of this stuff-- i feel like lots of it is good for a minute or two then it does some grating stuttery breakdown and goes all glitchy then switches up into some other annoying section of the song then come back to the good part, gets you stoked on an awesome build again and then does the whole thing over again
which is why i like the voodoo chilli 12" deej posted a song of-- doesnt switch up too much.
here's another off the same 12" which is basically "the bomb" fucked with a little:

ok i will explain it to you all but you wont like it - its cause its frivolous - basically in the history of 21st century popular culture at some point people thought o i want to have fun and and thats cool cause who doesnt want to have fun - but then they forgot why they wanted to have fun in the first place - that is basically what happened

this stuff seems pretty prevalent in melbourne, but it has different permutations depending on the crowd. fidget and crookers-type stuff gets play among the melbourne electrohouse cottage industry (that stuff we were all calling haircut house on that one thread ages ago) along with local productions, ed banger and simian mobile disco-type stuff. that's a fairly 'mainstream clubber' crowd. the b'more-juke-diplo stuff tends to have the 'ghetto' aspect played up on flyers and seems to attract lapsed indie kids and the readership of vice magazine. (who are white btw.)

the more i think about it the more i think max's post about middle school dances making americans dancing only to music 'they know' is otm about this stuff -- its like dudes dont actually think about dance music on any level beyond 'catchy melody people will want to know' and then just add generic dancing signifiers i.e. big kick drum, b-more break, grinding synth riff, and hope for the best -- theres like no internal logic to the structure of the song
― deej, Saturday, 6 December 2008 19:13 (fifteen years ago) link
and a lot of dance music is pretty intensely emotional and weird then theres shit like this thats jut lol dancing right
