If I danced (which I don't, not when anyone's looking anyway), this might be the kinda stuff I'd dance too.

A bit of fun for a Saturday afternoon. Hope you like.

Apart from funky and groovy music, the best way to make me move my body is a 3/4 rhythm. i even prefer the 3/4 dances, for we usually dance them in couple.

Here is my little hommage to the long tradition of old and classical dances:

The Cave Hall Electro Menuet

Is it necessary to recall that i love Ixoxflute?

enjoy !

[TristezaOrange]

To be honest, I just didn't know what to do this month. I figured that I should probably do some funky disco or something but then I came up with this annoyingly catchy [ IMHO ] piece of ol'school Trist Orange madness. That bass line that later doubles up as that horn line is one of my biggest achievements to this day [musical or otherwise, which is kind of sad if you think of it ].

Here it is, then:



Bipolar Bear

Hm.
I had something else in mind, but this piano tune took charge of my process and became my entry for July.

Last Farewell Tango

[Shuzhen]

Here's mine made for nervous body impellers everywhere
Epic Shapes Elapse
(was meant to loop, so there is no discernable beginning/ending. I'm starting to realise this wasn't such a hot idea.)

[Katanaman]

Dance music is my specialty. I used to make these very intense dance songs that, according to friends, sounded like the prodigy/chemical brothers and similar... Now that I have the oportunity to shine, I thought "no". I hate doing the same thing all the time so I thought I'd do what I call "abstract funky glitch hop". It's very different from what I usually do, particularly the drums. Hope you like it...
