This article is about dance music in general. You may also be looking for electronic dance music or dance-pop.Folk dance music is music accompanying traditional dance and may be contrasted with historical/classical, and popular/commercial dance music. An example of folk dance music in the United States is the old-time music played at square dances and contra dances. Brazilian dance music includes Samba, Pagode, and Forró. While there exist attestations of the combination of dance and music in ancient times (for example Ancient Greek vases sometimes show dancers accompanied by musicians), the earliest Western dance music that we can still play with a degree of certainty are the surviving medieval dances such as carols and the Estampie. The earliest of these surviving dances are almost as old as Western staff-based music notation. The Renaissance dance music was written for instruments such as the lute, viol, tabor, pipe, and the sackbut.

1. Drum Samples: Analyzing Snares
November 19, 2009
Snares are just about an essential part of most popular songs; everything you hear on the radio and nearly all songs on all CDs in the rhythm and blues and hip hop, rap and dance genres. Snare use is determined based on the type of music and the groove of the song.
Snare drum samples are usually placed on beats 2 and 4 in urban groove songs such as most hip hop. The reason for this is that it's usually the kicks that occupy the other, stronger points of the bar, but the snare still plays an important part and sets the tone for the rest of the song much of the time.
There are so many diff... (read more)

2. Formal Event and Wedding Music from the Mobile DJ
November 19, 2009
When a mixed gathering of all age groups needs music to dance, an instant personality is needed to break the ice. These include corporate parties, school dances, bar mitzvahs, and weddings so all types of people have to be encouraged to mingle. This is one of the roles of the deejay.
There are considerable differences between the nightclub DJ who plays dance music and scratches on the discs, the radio DJ who announces over a set playlist, and the mobile wedding DJ who plays all genres for all ages. Radio deejays are trained in college and need a degree to apply to a station, where they wi... (read more)

4. Chrono Trigger
November 16, 2009
Travel through time, save the world, dance to prehistoric music.
Square Enix have re-released the much-loved classic SNES title Chrono Trigger on the DS, and it has aged very well. The tale is identical, with multiple endings in place and the addition of a new area, Dark Omen, goes a little way towards making this version desirable.
Also included are the Arena and the updated FMV sequences complementing the previous sprite-rendered story expositions. The FMV has been done in true anime style, looking like something Akira Toriyama put together.
The major change lies with the cont... (read more)

5. Music of the 1940s Enlivens New Museum
November 15, 2009

8. Jazz is also a Dance
November 16, 2009
While few people understand the true origins of Jazz as a music form, fewer people still understand the origins of jazz as a style of dance. Jazz is very much a fatherless child. More than that however, jazz as music and dance seem to have many mothers despite the fact that they have no father. By this I mean that there are many influences to this colorful form of music and dance though no one influence is notable enough in the new creation to be considered the 'father' or 'mother' for that matter of jazz.
Though jazz has many supposed birth places it really only has one true home and tha... (read more)

14. Can True Believers Wear Jewelry?
November 13, 2009
Or Are They Going to Be Stuck Forever with Cross Pendants and Olive Wood Rosaries?
One of the most controversial subjects debated in today's churches is the transfer of culture from classic to contemporary. Some are embracing it with open arms, willingly allowing Christian rock and rap music to fill their youth group rooms and encouraging their adults to get up and dance in the aisles. Others do not. The same questions that are being applied to contemporary Christian music are also being asked of contemporary Christian jewelry. Are cross pendants and olive wood rosaries as far as they go?...

16. Michael Jackson an icon of style again
November 12, 2009
In Michael Jackson’s “This Is It,” moviegoers do not see the elaborate costumes created for the tour that never was, bedazzled with 4 million Swarovski crystals and lighted up using LED technology.
Those are on display at the O2 Arena in London, where the engagement had been scheduled to begin in July, and will go on to New York and Tokyo.
But what they do see, in addition to tough and tender moments that humanize the pop singer, and one hell of a music and dance show, is an amazing array of designer outfits Jackson wore to rehearsals. A black leather, pagoda-sleeve jacket and a crys... (read more)

19. How High are the Stakes?
November 11, 2009
If you are a fan of Madonna, you may agree with me that her album “Confessions on a Dance Floor” contains some of the most metaphysical messages that you can find in music. If you are not very familiar with her music on this album, I can advise you to listen to her songs because they are truly motivational. I want to devote this article to one song in particular: How High. “How high are the stakes? How much fortune can you make? Does this get any better? Should I carry on? Will it matter when I'm gone? Will any of this matter?”

22. Dancing as Exercise
November 10, 2009
Dance gives us tons of room for self-expression and can be potent in aiding the body and mind to be stimulated. It's all about movement and music and you.

Unfortunately, in our "modernized" society, we have lost touch with its potential. In contrast, dance has constantly been an integral part of multiple other cultures. You do not have to dance with an African t... (read more)
