DANCE, DANCE, DANCE

You may not be much of a dancer, but when that certain song comes on, you know you can't resist a little jig. Some songs just make me wanna get on my feet and do a little two, or fifteen, step. May be the crazy beat, the rhythm or whatever. If I were a DJ these would be the 'club bangers' i'd be playing.

!!! - Heart of Hearts / This songs just hits you in the face on the first listen, amazingly catchy. A few days at work where i couldn't get this one out of my head.

DJ Shadow - Organ Donor / The master of cutting up and putting back together with one of his more immediately gratifying numbers.

M.I.A. - 10 Dollar /
M.I.A. - Galang / First took a listen to her after Thom Yorke mentioned her in one of his interviews, and was pleasantly surprised. A sprightly mix of electronic beats, hiphop and lyrical wit. These two songs are ridiculously easy to get hooked to. Yea what can i get for ten dollahhh?

Four Tet - Smile Around The Face / Like the title says, its a happy song. Makes me want to boogie for some reason.

Radiohead - Bangers 'n' Mash (Live at Hammersmith Apollo) / The driving beat and the dirty strut of guitars coming together, irresistable. I can't really describe the awesomeness of this song in words though.

Burial - Archangel / The mood and ambience this song sets is really nice. From Britain's best faceless dubstep artist. Reminds me of a quiet night out in town, street lights whirring by as you sit in an air conditioned vehicle.
