Alternative Dance
Alternative dance music emerged in the late 1980s in the UK, when partygoers decided that shuffling about in a slightly confused manner was a perfectly acceptable form of self-expression. It combines elements of rock, dance, and electronic music, making it sound like the soundtrack to a slightly uncomfortable rave in a trendy art gallery, complete with beats you can dance to and lyrics that might just make you ponder your existence.
More about Alternative Dance
Its cultural impact is notable, as it turned many a clueless clubber into a philosophising disco poet, whilst propelling underground artists into the limelight at the speed of a dodgy glowing stick.
