alright, since i'm graduating from middle school this year (woohoo!), i decided to have an end of the year party at my house. it's going to be after the graduation dance (so it's going to be late), and i decided to go with a rave theme. time to break out the strobe lights and glow sticks! i'm really excited, but the thing is i don't have enough danceable/catchy music. i need about three hours worth, and currentally i only have 2 hours exactly. the current song list is:

all things ordinary- the anniversary
trash flavored trash- the blood brothers
arc of time (time code)- bright eyes
take it easy (love nothing)- bright eyes
romantic rights- death from above 1979
just let go- fischerspooner
emerge- fischerspooner
chauffeur- the fitness
dance this- the fitness
username- the fitness
analog synths- the fitness
plastic stars- freezepop
titties bounce- gravy train!!!!
they- jem
milk shake- kelis
seventeen- ladytron
deceptacon- le tigre
ha ha- mates of state
combat baby- metric
don't stop 'til you get enough- michael jackson
stock exchange- miss kittin
house of god- miss kittin
black sunglasses- mount sims
how we do- mount sims
between us and them- moving units
operate- peaches
clark gable- the postal service
brand new colony- the postal service
soft pyramids- q and not u
jump on it- sir mix alot
a perfect fit- tilly and the wall
in green- volcano, i'm still excited!!
crank heart- xiu xiu
brian the vampire- xiu xiu

so, anyone have any suggestions? i would prefer that they be at least slighty electronic so they fit the theme, but as you can see by some of the songs on there, they don't necessarily have to be.

also, if you don't have anything to recommend, you can talk about your favorite catchy/danceable songs in this thread.

p.s.- i didn't pick some of the songs if you were wondering... i definitely do NOT listen to michael jackson, kelis, or sir mix alot.. at least on a regular basis. hah.

I Wanna Be Down - M-Flo (Scrumfrog Remix)
(link)

^^ eh... the intro is kinda long for this version of the song. i have a better version of the song. lemme put up the link first.

have fun with the music.

is Waiting for Tonigh-Jennifer Lopez one?
It sounds like a dancing song. =P

take a count of how many people rave to q and not u

er. seventeen-ladytron

If you like the rave-style dance music you could always go with something from the Techno Bass Crew (Galaxy of Bass is a favorite of mine). And then, of course, there's the Mortal Kombat theme song .

love song by the cure. that song makes me want to get up and dance dance dance! lol

Fischerspooner - Mega Colon
Dirty Sanchez - f**king on the Dance Floor
Peaches - f**k the Pain Away
Freezepop - Stakeout (Donnerschlag Remix)
Felix da Housecat - Rocket Ride
From Bubblegum to Sky - Hello Hello Hi

Ah. It's hard to think of them off the top of my head. I'll post some more once I get my iPod back.

xo, Pauline

edit: by the way, nice list.

Get Right- J.Lo
Remix Waiting for Tonight- J.Lo
That Caesar song from the Ipod commercial. Forgot. Something Up. Lol.

I breakdance and bboy so I have to have Hip Hop or something with rhythm in it. Maybe a little techno.

Vanilla Ice - ice ice baby
Usher - Yeah
Usher - My Way

and many more.

i disappear- the faint.

^ i can't believe i forgot the faint! i'll add some of their songs now.


i was going to put that dirty sanchez song and that peaches song too, but my parent's room is right next to our pool area and since the lyrics are just so foward.. i think they'd freak. i tried downloading mega colon awhile ago but it didn't work . i'll download some of the others though.

and nicki, no one raves to q and not u (minus scott), lol. but it doesn't have to be rave music specifically... i just want stuff you can dance to, and if it fits the rave theme, even better.

thanks everyone, i'm going to go on a downloading spree tomarrow, so keep 'em coming!


edit:

ahh, this song is currentally my dirty secret!

i know, that was my point

I know! I have no idea who any of you are (I just stumbled upon this thread when I was looking for some Fischerspooner songs), but I couldn't stand listening to these song suggestions.

I'm a wannabe DJ but I got no money for equipment, so I just spend hours looking for kickass tekno music.

Here are some amazing songs (mostly hardstyle) that would undoubtedly make William a pimp @ his party (sorry if it happened already, i tried to save you!):

probably not middle-school friendly, but great songs:
Uberdruck - bloody slut (the crow mix) [long intro, skip to 3:00]
The Gladheadz - drug addicted psycho (ueberdruck remix) [skip to 4:00]


middle school friendly (finally some clean songs):

Hardstyle:
DJ Bizerk - A Lesson In Hardstyle [you definately need this one - it's the epitamy of rave music]
DJ Zany - Sky High
Deepack - The Prophecy
Le Brisc - Keep it Hard (Rob Mayth Remix)
Technoboy - Hardrive (Lesson 2) - www.puroeuro.com
TNT - Ti Ta Tnt (Technoboy vs Tuneboy Mix) [kicks in at about 2:45]

Euro Songs:
DJ Frankie Jones - Let The Beat Control Your Body
Lasgo - Alone
**for the best euro songs, DJ Inphinity (a local Chicago DJ) can't be beat. order his CDs here: http://djinphinity.com/store.html

Trance Songs:
Kai Tracid - Conscious (Ferry Corsten Remix)
Sa.Vee.Oh - Nohacker.Exe (Original Mix) www.xqlusive-sounds.tk

Fischerspooner - Get Confused
Fischerspooner - A Kick in the Teeth
Fischerspooner - Sweetness [this one breaks into a bitchin Nintendo set at about 3:45]
