There's only so much you can do with a male voice in dance music. ~ Calvin Harris
Dance Music quotes by Calvin Harris
Traditionally, with a DJ set, you just go hear DJ that has a good reputation and let the DJ take you somewhere. It was up to the DJ what he wanted to play. Typically in dance music, people didn't know most of the songs a DJ played. ~ A-Trak
Dance Music quotes by A-Trak
What I don't like is dance music or hip hop or any of that sort of thing. ~ Steve Coogan
Dance Music quotes by Steve Coogan
Dance music ... stirs some barbaric instinct - lulled asleep in our sober lives - you forget centuries of civilization in a second, & yield to that strange passion which sends you madly whirling round the room. ~ Virginia Woolf
Dance Music quotes by Virginia Woolf
Talent will only take you so far, and it is your ability to feel the music and explore a movement that will bring you the greatest pleasure in dance. ~ Karen Kain
Dance Music quotes by Karen Kain
New wave disco was coming to the fore then, and we were at a different point entirely. I like to listen to dance music, but I don't think I'm primarily a dance music writer. ~ Stan Ridgway
Dance Music quotes by Stan Ridgway
The thought of bringing a cake into a dance music show is a bizarre one. The idea of rafting on top of people is just as bizarre as well. And I think whenever something bizarre comes into play, it immediately becomes an easy target. And for those reasons, I know that I have been the target of criticism. ~ Steve Aoki
Dance Music quotes by Steve Aoki
Holland is a really small country, but with a very strong club and festival scene. Dance music has been huge in Holland since the late eighties. So there were a lot of opportunities for producers and DJs to release records and play live. ~ Afrojack
Dance Music quotes by Afrojack
I am trying to walk a tightrope; trying to keep the DJ community happy while trying to spread the message about dance music to more people. That is the mission that I am on. ~ David Guetta
Dance Music quotes by David Guetta
So dance music is now pop music. So now, as a dance producer, what do I have to do? So I'm starting to do alien music, because pop is not pop anymore; we need to go alien to be independent. ~ David Guetta
Dance Music quotes by David Guetta
From the beginning, I wanted to make dance music with a human element to it. ~ Beth Orton
Dance Music quotes by Beth Orton
Dance music-as I keep saying, you can dance to a windshield wiper ... a windshield wiper that's fairly steady gives you a beat and all you need is an out-of-tune playing 'Melancholy Baby' and you've got dance music. ~ Artie Shaw
Dance Music quotes by Artie Shaw
Bop is at the end of the road. Now everybody wants dance music. ~ Dizzy Gillespie
Dance Music quotes by Dizzy Gillespie
Dance music is Madonna's base. It's what she likes, it's what she listens to. It's not anything other than that. She doesn't read what's on the charts. And if it's on time, great. This is who she is. ~ Guy Oseary
Dance Music quotes by Guy Oseary
Whatever art--writing, painting, sculpture, acting, dance, music, or any other--there will be frustration & travails. It's all worth it ~ Mark Rubinstein
Dance Music quotes by Mark Rubinstein
I do dance music, and I can be pretty camp myself from time to time. ~ Kylie Minogue
Dance Music quotes by Kylie Minogue
The daisies and buttercups nodded in the breeze, like skinny-necked old ladies listening to dance music.

What if necessary evil had an opposite? This is what it would be. This unnecessary good.

For the first time in days, Mo smiled. ~ Tricia Springstubb
Dance Music quotes by Tricia Springstubb
I found that dance, music, and literature is how I made sense of the world ... it pushed me to think of things bigger than life's daily routines ... to think beyond what is immediate or convenient. ~ Mikhail Baryshnikov
Dance Music quotes by Mikhail Baryshnikov
[David] Bowie went on to make best-selling music - funk, dance music, electronic music, while also being influenced by cabaret and jazz. ~ David Bowie
Dance Music quotes by David Bowie
Cinema is a kind of pan-art. It can use, incorporate, engulf virtually any other art: the novel, poetry, theater, painting, sculpture, dance, music, architecture. Unlike opera, which is a (virtually) frozen art form, the cinema is and has been a fruitfully conservative medium of ideas and styles of emotions. ~ Susan Sontag
Dance Music quotes by Susan Sontag
Liv runs. Every morning, and some evenings too. Running has taken the place of thinking, of eating, sometimes of sleeping. She runs until her shins burn and her lungs feel as if they will explode ... She plugs in her iPod earphones, closes the door of the block, rams her keys into the pocket of her shorts, and sets off at a pace. She lets her mind flood with the deafening thumping beat, dance music so relentless that it leaves no room for thought. ~ Jojo Moyes
Dance Music quotes by Jojo Moyes
Obviously, it's had a huge effect on repetitive music or dance music or house music. Ambient in the last ten years has infiltrated into all those repetitive musics. I don't know what part it plays in pop necessarily but I'm sure there's some connection. But in all the music that deals with experimental repetition, drum and bass, dub, various kinds of house music, there's always been a quality of atmosphere and ambience. I think it's infiltrated that pretty heavily. ~ Bill Laswell
Dance Music quotes by Bill Laswell
Whenever you play dance music, it serves a function. It becomes a utility; you have to worry about the tempos and what you're going to play for people. But when you're playing for listening, you're free. ~ Stan Kenton
Dance Music quotes by Stan Kenton
It's very strange what happens when I start working for a film. In my life I've done a lot of stuff - I did a lot of dance music, a lot of TV shows and lots of different types of films - and every time it is a new experience. ~ Claudio Simonetti
Dance Music quotes by Claudio Simonetti
In my childhood there was every year at my old home, Roxborough, or, as it is called in Irish, Cregroostha, a great sheep-shearing that lasted many days. On the last evening there was always a dance for the shearers and their helpers, and two pipers used to sit on chairs placed on a corn-bin to make music for the dance. ~ Lady Gregory
Dance Music quotes by Lady Gregory
Sacrameto4kids understand the need of various activities like dance, music art classes and many others type of fun activities for kids in Sacramento. We provide full of detailed listings of various events and sports places in the sacramento4kida areas. ~ Sacramento4Kids
Dance Music quotes by Sacramento4Kids
I can destroy a dance floor. I think life should be a musical. I always hate it when people watch a musical and they go, 'Oh, it's so unrealistic, no one just breaks into song in the middle of their day.' Yeah, they do- if they're me. ~ Zachary Levi
Dance Music quotes by Zachary Levi
Some critics could argue that club or fun pop-y dance music isn't meaningful, when it totally is. All different types of music are meaningful depending on what people are going through in their lives at any given moment. ~ Darren Fletcher
Dance Music quotes by Darren Fletcher
I go with the flow. Whatever music you play for me, I'll dance. ~ Gael Garcia Bernal
Dance Music quotes by Gael Garcia Bernal
There's a great club in London called The Secret Sundays, and it's on a Sunday afternoon and it's outdoors, and it's mainly Italians that go, and they all look great, and they're dancing on the tables, and life's a party, and they're totally into the music, going mental, and that's when dance music is really fantastic, I think. ~ Chris Lowe
Dance Music quotes by Chris Lowe
I love playing out. I love dance music, I love minimal electro. Especially hearing that in clubs, it's a nod to that really. ~ Andy Bell
Dance Music quotes by Andy Bell
As of right this second my main focus is my new album, it'll be out probably towards the summertime, predominately R&B this time. I had a little stint with the dance music and all of that, which I had a good time with- and I love the audience, I love them for accepting me doing it -but I had to go home on this one. Had to take it back to my roots, and not to say that there won't be one, maybe two songs on there that the dance crowd can get into, but the majority, the girth of the album, will be R&B. ~ Ne-Yo
Dance Music quotes by Ne-Yo
Listening to music is such an uplifting, spiritual thing. It's far-fetched to some - I understand that. But the way dance music brings people together, it's not a big stretch from hymns. ~ Kaskade
Dance Music quotes by Kaskade
Dance music cannot compete with a really great rock n' roll song. There ain't no DJ that's gonna play something that can take 'Mr Brightside' or 'Don't Look Back In Anger.' ~ Brandon Flowers
Dance Music quotes by Brandon Flowers
Dance music is great, but it's not a time to be reflective or particularly wistful. ~ Sophie Ellis-Bextor
Dance Music quotes by Sophie Ellis-Bextor
Part of why I was drawn to making dance music was convenience. It was the type of music I could make without a band, and I wasn't interested in collaborating with anyone. ~ Nicolas Jaar
Dance Music quotes by Nicolas Jaar
It's really cool to see glowsticks at the show, to see dance music culture infiltrating and becoming one with the metal community. ~ Jonathan Davis
Dance Music quotes by Jonathan Davis
My day is done, and I am like a boat drawn on the beach, listening to the dance-music of the tide in the evening. ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Dance Music quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
Trance is a very emotional and uplifting form of dance music. It appeals to many people in this way having such a strong connection with emotions. It makes people happy and ready to party. ~ Tiesto
Dance Music quotes by Tiesto
A fine work of art - music, dance, painting, story - has the power to silence the chatter in the mind and lift us to another place. ~ Robert McKee
Dance Music quotes by Robert McKee
I've always wanted to introduce hip-hop filmmaking to film. There's hip-hop art, dance, music, but there really isn't hip-hop film. So I was trying to do that. ~ Darren Aronofsky
Dance Music quotes by Darren Aronofsky
I'm a sucker for a catchy song, and dance music. That's my sweet spot. ~ Hilary Duff
Dance Music quotes by Hilary Duff
I love that way dance music can put you in a trance. ~ Chet Faker
Dance Music quotes by Chet Faker
Scotland is one of my favourite places to perform: it's really something special. Scottish audiences are just so enthusiastic; their approach to dance music just feels similar to my own somehow. ~ Moby
Dance Music quotes by Moby
This was a time frame when dance music and clubs were having a real impact on culture, and it had an impact on me. ~ Tori Amos
Dance Music quotes by Tori Amos
I like music and I like ladies. I like to see them dance. ~ Joe Namath
Dance Music quotes by Joe Namath
Perhaps it was the darkness and secrecy that lent an extra layer of excitement to their meeting? Certainly, all of her other senses felt heightened to an almost unbearable extent. She couldn't see, but she could hear the distant strains of dance music as the steady beat thrummed through her body; and she could feel so much with just one touch. ~ Emily Arden
Dance Music quotes by Emily Arden
DJing for people is fun until someone comes up with a phone screen that has 'PLAY SOME RIHANNA' written on it. I prefer to play older songs because they're the ones I personally enjoy dancing and singing along to and modern dance music bores my brains out. ~ Alexa Chung
Dance Music quotes by Alexa Chung
Holland is to dance music what Nashville is to country. ~ Afrojack
Dance Music quotes by Afrojack
I've been doing it since I was prepubescent when I loved to scratch records and play good music. As it happens, you know I sort of fell into the mix. I really feel like I played a role in bringing dance music to America years ago. ~ A-Trak
Dance Music quotes by A-Trak
This was different. It had synths droning and sending saltwater waves under my feet. It had drumbeats bursting like fireworks, rumbling the furniture out of place, and then a crazy, irregular, disharmonious, spiral crescendo of pure electric noise, like a typhoon dragging our bodies into it. It featured brass orchestras and choirs of mermaids and a piano in Iceland, all of them right there, visible, touchable, in Axton House. It shook us, fucked us, suspended us far above the reach of Help bouncing on his hind legs. It spoke of magenta sunsets and plastic patio chairs growing moss under summer storms rolling on caterpillar tracks. It sprinkled a bokeh of car lights rushing through night highways and slapped our faces like the wind at a hundred and twenty miles an hour. It pictured Niamh playing guitar, washed up naked on a beach in Fiji. ~ Edgar Cantero
Dance Music quotes by Edgar Cantero
Underground dance music - in the nicest way possible - it's amateur ~ Axwell
Dance Music quotes by Axwell
All music is dance music. But when people think of dance music, they think of techno or just house. Anything you can dance to is dance music. I don't care if it's classical, funk, salsa, reggae, calypso; it's all dance music. ~ Afrika Bambaataa
Dance Music quotes by Afrika Bambaataa
We're safe enough now,' he thought, 'we're snug and tight, like an air-raid shelter. We can hold out. It's just the food that worries me. Food and coal for the fire. We've enough for two or three days, not more. By that time ... '
No use thinking ahead as far as that. And they'd be giving directions on the wireless. People would be told what to do. And now, in the midst of many problems, he realised that it was dance music only coming over the air. Not Children's Hour, as it should have been. He glanced at the dial. Yes, they were on the Home Service all right. Dance records. He switched to the Light programme. He knew the reason. The usual programmes had been abandoned. This only happened at exceptional times. Elections, and such. He tried to remember if it had happened in the war ... ("The Birds") ~ Daphne Du Maurier
Dance Music quotes by Daphne Du Maurier
Dance music was really leading the way in the U.K., Europe and Australia. America was always about hip-hop and R&B. ~ TyDi
Dance Music quotes by TyDi
I like rock music that has melody, but it also makes you wanna get up and dance. ~ Albert Hammond, Jr.
Dance Music quotes by Albert Hammond, Jr.
I honestly produce for myself, not for other people and everyone who supports me I'm really, really, really am thankful for the fact they are supporting me. However, in dance music, you need to switch it up sometimes. ~ Nicky Romero
Dance Music quotes by Nicky Romero
The producers and writers of dance music are becoming the stars, not so much the DJs. ~ Kaskade
Dance Music quotes by Kaskade
At that moment a solitary violin struck up. But the music was not dance music; it was more like a song - a solemn, sweet song. (I know now that it was Beethoven's Romance in F.) I listened, and suddenly it was as if the fog that surrounded me had been penetrated, as if I were being spoken to. ~ Jennifer Paynter
Dance Music quotes by Jennifer Paynter
I do love dance music, but at the same time, I'm not looking to put out a big pop album. You've got to be the best you can be. ~ Rebecca Ferguson
Dance Music quotes by Rebecca Ferguson
You can be creative in anything - in math, science, engineering, philosophy - as much as you can in music or in painting or in dance. ~ Ken Robinson
Dance Music quotes by Ken Robinson
Dance music is an emotional journey. It's how well you can make people feel something that they haven't felt. ~ Steve Aoki
Dance Music quotes by Steve Aoki
Dance music is my love, is my passion, is my life. I live for my fans and take my art very seriously. ~ Steve Aoki
Dance Music quotes by Steve Aoki
I want to make music that will make the blood surge in your veins, music that will get people up and dance. ~ Alex Kapranos
Dance Music quotes by Alex Kapranos
To the U.S. and the world, I'm just known as some funny song and some funny music, some funny video guy. But in Korea I'm doing one of the biggest concerts; it's not a dance music concert. I'm playing with the band, so I change my every song to a rock song. ~ Psy
Dance Music quotes by Psy
It was some of Solomon's favorite music because it was dense and intellectually complicated and he wasn't expected to dance to it. ~ James S.A. Corey
Dance Music quotes by James S.A. Corey
Fine dancing, I believe, like virtue, must be its own reward. ~ Jane Austen
Dance Music quotes by Jane Austen
To come out here and play on Woodstock grounds, first year ever headlining on the main stage there's nothing more iconic. [Mysteryland] is one of those festivals that holds down the legacy of dance music it's been around for so many years. It's been part of what we do for so long. It kinda makes sense to bring the tradition over here to America. The festival grounds of Woodstock, that's pretty epic. ~ Steve Aoki
Dance Music quotes by Steve Aoki
I think most good music has got some kind of crossover-potential. It feels nice to know that there are more people than those into dance-music that are listening to what I've made. ~ Hans-Peter Lindstrom
Dance Music quotes by Hans-Peter Lindstrom
The lack of quality dance music and the fact that here in the United States, house music is not seen as anything viable by the music industry. I figured that this might be another shot at the industry looking at the possibilities of house music and giving it a little bit more legitimacy than what they give it. It's a host of different things, but it's something that I needed to say musically. ~ Frankie Knuckles
Dance Music quotes by Frankie Knuckles
There are those who dance the notes, and those who dance the music. ~ Eva Ibbotson
Dance Music quotes by Eva Ibbotson
If I hear dance music, my body starts to move. Whatever the dance music is, I can't help it. With all that, I still felt, well, rock is a little higher art, but it wasn't. Right now, because I have so much experience with dance charts, I started to realize that it's incredible art. This is going to be known one day as high art. ~ Yoko Ono
Dance Music quotes by Yoko Ono
Europe in general is a great place for me, but specifically Germany has been very good to me. Germans love classical music ... Electronic dance music is massive over there, so I'm kind of the marriage between the two. ~ Lindsey Stirling
Dance Music quotes by Lindsey Stirling
running to and fro with trays of refreshments. Odo, who knew that his mother lived in the Duke's palace, had vaguely imagined that his father's death must have plunged its huge precincts into silence and mourning; but as he followed the abate up successive flights of stairs and down long corridors full of shadow he heard a sound of dance music below and caught the flash of girandoles through the antechamber doors. The thought that his father's death had made no difference to any one in the palace was to the child so much more astonishing than any of the other impressions crowding his brain, that these were scarcely felt, and he passed as in a dream through rooms where servants were quarrelling over cards and waiting-women rummaged in wardrobes full of perfumed finery, to a bedchamber in which a lady dressed in weeds sat disconsolately at supper. "Mamma! Mamma!" he cried, springing ~ Edith Wharton
Dance Music quotes by Edith Wharton
I think whether dance music had exploded in America, I still would've been a DJ a long time. This is my first love. ~ A-Trak
Dance Music quotes by A-Trak
I grew up walking out with no music. I wish I had the bottle to dance on but I can't dance. ~ John Higgins
Dance Music quotes by John Higgins
When I started Fool's Gold and producing consistent records that were like electro beats with rapping on it that was experimental and weird. I made a mixtape called Dirty South Dance where I put rap vocals over dance music. That was literally an experiment. Now all these rappers are rapping on dance music. This is something I've been trying to build for a while. ~ A-Trak
Dance Music quotes by A-Trak
parking lot at Cris's apartment. The Chinese restaurant was packed. Cris's apartment was dark, but yellow light and dance music blared from the windows of the apartment next door. "Why ~ A.L. Anderson
Dance Music quotes by A.L. Anderson
Dance music tends to be a solitary affair. ~ Peter Hook
Dance Music quotes by Peter Hook
but if that ever stops, I'm just going to remove your head from your shoulders and see how good you are at healing yourself. You understand step two?" "Yes. What's step three?" "Oh, yes, that's an easy one. Tell the DJ to stop playing this god-awful shit and put something fun on. Maybe a bit of Kenny Loggins, you can't go wrong with Footloose. Everyone likes Kevin Bacon." Karl's eyes widened in shock. "Are you insane?" "Hey, Kenny isn't that bad. Yeah it's a bit cheesy, but it's a good fun song." I stared at Karl for a heartbeat. "Oh, you meant in general. No, I just really fucking hate dance music. ~ Steve McHugh
Dance Music quotes by Steve McHugh
It's weird that remixes have been associated so much with dance music. I think it's just kind of box-standard to put a beat behind it saying it's a remix. ~ Simon Taylor-Davis
Dance Music quotes by Simon Taylor-Davis
That was my challenge then, how to make scratching still fun for someone who didn't necessarily come to hear that. It was fun to develop that technique. And now in dance music - I'm still a hip-hop guy at heart, but I love dance music. ~ A-Trak
Dance Music quotes by A-Trak
Until House came along I don't think the English made very good dance records, you know, there were very few really good English Rap records, whereas once House came along all of a sudden we started and now I think we probably lead the world, and have overtaken America in dance music. ~ Fatboy Slim
Dance Music quotes by Fatboy Slim
I think hip hop is a dance music that's rebellious by nature. ~ Talib Kweli
Dance Music quotes by Talib Kweli
One of my lungs is half gone, and the other half, because I smoked for years, has a lesion. So I can't swim anymore and had the swimming pool covered over. Now it's what I call the dance pavilion, and so I and my friends sit out and put music on and watch people dance. ~ Maya Angelou
Dance Music quotes by Maya Angelou
Even before I auditioned for 'X Factor' the second time, I was doing a lot of dance music. ~ Fleur East
Dance Music quotes by Fleur East
When I was thirteen I spent a lot of time pretending to like dance music because everyone at my school seemed to love it. If only I'd known it was OK to have different tastes to others and that one day my mind would be blown open by an older man who would introduce me to The Smiths, The Cure, Buzzcocks, Talking Heads and almost every other band I adore to this day. I also wish I'd been reassured that one day, yes, a boy would actually fancy me in spite and potentially, deliberately, FOR my zero boob/skinny legs combo. But mainly I wish I'd listened to my mother when she said learning to play the piano might come in handy in the future and would actually be something I would thank her for forcing me to do. Every Wednesday we would drive to Mrs Batten's house listening to The ArchersI, with me in the passenger seat trying desperately to think up excuses for why I hadn't practiced that week. Though it seemed very unlikely at the time, I am thankful for those piano lessons every time I manage to impress a boy by hammering out some Chopin when drunk (swot up, kids!). ~ Alexa Chung
Dance Music quotes by Alexa Chung
There have been a lot of people involved in the growth of EDM's support in the U.S., from DJ/producers like David Guetta, Deadmau5 and Skrillex, to major festival organisers and pop artists of EDM integrating elements of dance music into their music. ~ Tiesto
Dance Music quotes by Tiesto
I tend to gravitate away from the more trendy Ibiza style of dance music. It's not me. ~ DJ Shadow
Dance Music quotes by DJ Shadow
Dance music is no longer a simple Donna Summer beat. It's become a whole language that I find fascinating and exciting. Eventually, it will lose the dance tag and join the fore of rock. ~ David Bowie
Dance Music quotes by David Bowie
Without music and dance, life is a journey through a desert. ~ Pat Conroy
Dance Music quotes by Pat Conroy
Taking people on a journey is the fundamental element of underground dance music. I don't sell records. ~ Seth Troxler
Dance Music quotes by Seth Troxler
I also think there's something about dance, music and the arts that transcends all other types of communication and expression. ~ Rachele Brooke Smith
Dance Music quotes by Rachele Brooke Smith
When you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance. ~ Lee Ann Womack
Dance Music quotes by Lee Ann Womack
If you want to talk about EDM, let's talk about Detroit underground music, Chicago house and let's talk about all the things that got us to this place. We all get on the train of dance music. We need to all respectfully look through the carriages that have come before us and realize how we got here. ~ Goldie
Dance Music quotes by Goldie
Dance music is about having a good time, and a lot of dance music is very serious now. When progressive house and progressive tech came along, it was kind of serious, but it's all context as well. ~ Chris Lowe
Dance Music quotes by Chris Lowe
They're not particular whether you're playing a flat 5th or a ruptured 129th as long as they can dance. ~ Dizzy Gillespie
Dance Music quotes by Dizzy Gillespie
When Talking Heads started, we called ourselves Thinking Man's Dance Music. ~ Tina Weymouth
Dance Music quotes by Tina Weymouth
Telling people that I wanted to make dance music, or be on the radio, they looked at me like I was crazy because there was nothing like that in Lichtenstein when I was getting started. That's why I went to Germany, because there is industry there. ~ Al Walser
Dance Music quotes by Al Walser
Dance music is like a virus: it has affected so many different genres. ~ Avicii
Dance Music quotes by Avicii
