hey mr (and ms) djs

Hello "crazy girl" (notice the inverted commas!)


Musical crisis!



I need your help and collaboration! My crisis is divided in two sections:

a) My current stereo situation consists of only being able to listen to audio CDs and since I don't usually burn or buy them...I'm limited to old stuff, really old stuff.

b) I'm completely fed up with my "dancing" CDs. They're stale.



So what I ask of you is this: send me your musical suggestions, yeah? And, one more thing, when I say dance, I don't mean I want dance music. A lot of different music can be danced to, jazz for instance can be fantastic. So if you come across a song that you think is danceable and nice, send it my way. You can leave the suggestions in my comment box, e-mail inbox or real mail box (if you're an angel you can send me a CD ;)



Thaaaaanks!!

  4. Unfortunately, Rufus isn't really dancing music ... Unless there's someone you can cling to while dancing ;)

    I'll have to think this one over :)

  7. Scholiast: When I saw your comment I thought: I wonder if Rufus has any dancing music? lol

    Sandman: Hey, welcome! Thanks for that. Santogold is really cool :) But with my soft soft for World Music I'm loving Thandiswa!

  8. when i have nothing to listen to, i sing. better still, at times, i simply enjoy the silence :)

  9. Dharmabum: Oh yes, silence is very important. I enjoy it a lot. But I can't dance in silence, it's ridiculous.

  10. Hmmm...I've had a cd compilation idea for a while, so this might be a good incentive to get it together. :-) In the meantime, the big dance song favorite in our place is

  13. I have lots of alternative dancing favourites but particularly early PJ Harvey and Goldfrapp's Black Cherry album.

    I'm off dancing tonight, if I hear any other favourites I'll come back and tell you!

  14. oh Placebo are great for dancing too and more recent tracks from Depeche Mode

    ReplyDelete
  15. SirBarrett: Thanks :)

    Crafty: Oh thanks for so many suggestions :) I do have that Goldfrapp album, you're right! My problem with the other bands is that they often get more emotional than we need to be when dancing heheh ;)

  16. Hi, Devil Mood! Long time no comment -- I hope all is well. I know I'm late on this thread, but try "Juxtaposed With You" by Super Furry Animals. Definitely danceable!

  17. Hi Sleekpelt, thanks for that! :)Never too late for danceable music.
