I know people normally dont dance to the sort of music we discuss here. But do any of you dance to glitch (whatever the hell you want to call it) when its being played at an event, club, or what not? What kind of danceing is it?
When I went to Coachella I had the oppertunity to see Squarepusher. I noticed that there was hardly anyone in the tent dancing except for me and this other guy busting rave moves or pop.
Even when I went to see Afx preform at ATP the dancing was far and inbetween, mostly headnodding. I did noticed some people having a hard time keeping up with the tempo, others trying to find their own rythm, and a few had just abondoned traditional dancing and moved thier body as if they were going spastic. heh heh.

When I saw ae tour for Confield people danced to the deejay sets that opened the show but of course when ae came on everyone just stood there. A couple of guys banged their heads like they were at a metal show.

Its nice to move to unconventional music like that. Its makes the action of cutting loose so much more intense. Im a pretty reserved guy, but when I get the oppertunity to let go I take it. After it all I feel so much better for weeks.

Yes, in order to dance to confield you need a minimum of five years modern dance instruction, or no bones and a vibrating bed.

Im sure you mean you cant dance a waltz to most braindance. The body is an extension of the mind. You just have to move, how you do it is up to you. Whether you want to call it dancing is up to you.

Pop blocking sounds like one of those football moves I don't understand because I have the heart of a young girl.

I beleive its really called pop-locking. Its sort of like the robot, but without the limitede range of motion. You either make you body seem to move liquidly or you lock your joints when you move. Its reletive to breakdancing.

Its also called: pop(in) and lock(ing)
...at least from my neck of the woods
More people should dance to "IDM", glitch, drum/drill and bass, the world would be a much better place to live in
