dance battle music

[Buck_Choi]

any one know of any good dance battle music.? like step up stuff. and crank the yard or whatever its called..?

doesn't need any words but an awesome beat people can pop lock to, hiphop dance. etc etc.

thanks =] i have a few but just wondering if any of you have something awesome

[LabRat]

best chance would be to take a look at the soundtrack and browse the songs or hit up youtube. my sis does all that crap but when she gets in i could probably ask her something

[Buck_Choi]

awesome that be good thanks spitfire. yeah ill prob go through them sound tracks

[CBG]

i could see ppl battling to this: Deadmau5 & DJ Casper - Moar cha cha n stuff (Chris Gould speed-mash) by Chris Gould

after all the cha cha slide is a dance

Or just ummm... hmmm... look up the gay as movie, you got served or whatever its called

[LabRat]

im guessing you'll already know the tune Bounce - Timberland & JT and whoever else is in it.

also, ive seen people battle to some rusko tunes aswell so you might wanna check that out?

will hopefuly have a bigger list for you once i get home and ask my sis

EDIT: oops just reread yer mssg, you were meaning step up type dance moves. anywho left my 2 cents cuz i think these tracks still rock and my old school ones are straight uprockin' (what we called battling back in the day)

music to pop/ lock or break too is very different to music to "hip hop" dance too (im using that term in regards to you got served or what you usually see in hip pop film clips).

while the latter may incorporate a few of the former, it also incorporates a lot of hip hop inspired jazz moves, and can really been done with any uptempo rnb/hip hop track.

on the other hand my old school recommends for popping or breaking to:

herbie hancock - rockit

rock steady crew - uprockin'

something from bomfunk mc's instereo (ha ha don't hate) EDIT: stir up the bass is good

for new school something from deekline & wizards back up & coming thru remix album. id say baila baila vent remix and show me splitloop remix

also run thru beat assasins catalog, nothing comes to mind but im sure they got stuff.

unlike the 3:16 (3 verses of 16 bars plus chorus) formula of rnb/hip hop tracks these have the builds, climaxes and pauses that poppin and break lend themselves to.

another one just came to mind riva starr - black mama extended version. maybe uptempo it a little. the build and drop at 3.19 rocks.

Thanks everyone for your input =D keep them coming. ill give them a listen asap.

and to CBG haha i love it haha sounds awesome!

[eggssell]

hey heres my suggestions

rockit (song starts from about 3.20 before that just some early turntablism from one of the founders Grandmaster DST)

rock steady crew (damn i loved this song growing up. no one does crab walks these days like buck 4)

no clip for bomfunk mc's but someone has uploaded it

oh yeah forgot kraftwork - tour de france

boogaloo shrimp btw. no one pops better period. no biting now

[eggssell]
