It's a strong bass and drumline that people dance too - you don't dance to a riff

Yup, take any riff, stick a loud pumping metronome beat bass and bass drum, and you got a dancing song tongue.gif

what bpm should i aim for?

Posted by: Ramiro Delforte Mar 11 2009, 09:11 PM

I think near 130 140 would be cool.

Rob Zombie has some stuff like that.

If you want to make song "danceable" you need to concentrate on drum and bass groove...Preferably no blast beats on drums etc , just something simple and groovy...On top of it add heavy guitar and you got the song your looking for.Also tempo around 130 bpm is best..

Aye Pendulum and Rob Zombie can help smile.gif and why should you choose metal for dancing?(strange biggrin.gif ) fast rock n roll will be better i guess:)

Korn, nuff said... its all danceable, and all metal. People can diss nu-metal all they want but its the best danceable hard music out there
