I spend a lot of time thinking about, collecting, organising, and editing music for social dance. I also enjoy sharing my discoveries with other dancers, which is the reason for this blog. My collection is currently over 1000 songs, and there's no good way right now to share information about a collection that large, so I'm just going to post about bits and pieces as they occur to me.
To get started, here are some good online resources:
- Richard Powers' Discography of Social Dance Music
- Music recommendations from Persephone in Berkeley
- Susan's discography of slow and fast waltzes
- Music list from Portland Waltz Eclectic
- Elm City Waltz's sample program

Excellent blog to bring into existence. Yay for dance music!
Hey, I just want to say that I love this blog --I'm teaching a cross-step workshop this weekend, and being able to look around here for music ideas has helped _immensely_.
I'd love to see more posts someday, but regardless, thanks for the resource.
