I believe I speak for every American here when I say, "If this comes here, I will have to rage war against the French" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-6Zkt3E1nE&feature=related
In Canada the style is quite different from that video... TBH, the dance style looks stupid, but... its better than all this grinding crap that is in all of the bars here; it would actually require either deformities or skill to dance. Also, it would make the population thinner (that looks like quite the work-out ) as opposed to obese.
here in NY its all about grinding and crap ... when i was in Greece it was just like putting ur arms out in front of ya and a bit different style of clothes ... in Germany most recent for me was just a mix of grinding and just throwin hands up in the air and stuff ... pretty much it depends on where u go as for having a "set dance" that is just wack there is so many different songs and beats and genres to "techno" that you cant just have on set dance but none the less it has been here for awhile and if i remember correctly some might call it Disco back in the day ... i still like the musik and have no problem dancing to it i just wont purposely make myself look like a sack like that haha oh yeah and it looks like he is doing a routine for back street boys or Britney spears haha
it looks like people that want to break dance but can't break dance so they just wave their arms around and jump around a bit... or a crappy version of the hip hop dancing people did in the 90s... Some Bel Biv Devoe or Paula Abdul or any of those hip hop stars from back then lol...
Looks like people jacked up on LSD and completely out of it. Thank god it hasnt come to the UK. Bloody nutcases in france.
if you like european techno/hardstyle, Showtek did an awesome mix at the UK Hard Dance awards http://rapidshare.com/files/2063070...03-07_-_Showtek___Kidd_Kaos--www.qrip.org.mp3
I, too, have a hard dance mix from back in my DJ days. It's been a few years since I recorded it so it's a little dated by now. http://www.atlantamix.net/MikeBass_HardAssShit.mp3
Clearly what this thread needs is TECHNO VIKING! Hey, French kids, glad to hear you finally caught up to 2000...almost a decade late but at least you got there.
