Archived48 replies · 1,171 views
"My Moon My Man" - Feist "Headhunter" - Front 242 "Teardrop" - Massive Attack
--not simply because I've been listening to them all day, but also because they're songs I can dance to in my apartment and no one has to watch.
1.Rhythm is a Mystery/K-Klass (love the piano riff, and saxophone-ish sound) 2.In yer face/808 State (The rhythm is addictive, IMO) 3.Surrender/Lasgo (Liked the video)
- James Brown is Dead
- Can't Touch This
- Ice, Ice Baby
cause they all ROCK and they are ground breaking! I think these three influenced NO quite abit too
Out There Somewhere Pt 2- Orbital (cos i been playing it lots lately) Smokebelch II (David Holmes remix) - Sabres of Paradise (just a religious experience) Lift - Azukx (no particular reason)

Well we are allowed our guilty pleasures.
The first one, though, I play mebbe once a week. I'm convinced its Orbital at the peak of their creativity, slowly went downhill after that. A constantly evolving trance record, that goes on for half an hour. First time I bought it, I hired a car with a CD player and drove a brunette up to the Lake District, with it constantly on repeat, and knobbed her silly. I just fuckin love it, in short.

Well, that is definitely a good reason to like a track!
None come to mind especially rapidly... Quick look through the Recently Played list reveals:
Aphex Twin - 4 Orb - Oxbow Lakes Boards Of Canada - Aquarius
Snorri xxx
dirty epic- underworld, still get rushes when i hear it open up- leftfeild, ditto higher than the sun- primal scream, come down tune
They'd be my three too, probably.
Maybe Rhythm is a Mystery instead of Your Lovin Arms.
Duct Tape My Mule, Boy
not sure if they really count as dance choons, per se...but these three would get people's asses on the dance floor back in the day...
Ride On Time-Black Box Nemesis-Shriekback and Mikey's gonna love this next one...
Blue Monday-New Order
edit:
OOPS...I forgot one;
Harley David (Son of a Bitch)-Bollock Brothers
Baby Let Me Love You For Tonight - Kariya
Its All Right - Sterling Void
Belfast - Orbital.
Why?, cos they're fucking ace!

Top New Order tracks that fit this category, imo.

err...
The title of the thread is the first 3 dance music tracks that come to mind. It doesn't necessarily mean that they are my favorite dance tracks.
and to answer the question why - they were my favorites when I started partying back in the late 80s.
Indeed!
