[For Creative Dance] A Compilation of Easy-to-Dance Japanese and Western Tracks (91–100)
Everyday, KachushaAKB48
When it comes to songs that hype up a sports day or school athletic festival, AKB48 is probably the go-to.
They’ve been a hugely popular idol group since their formation.
Among their songs, “Everyday, Kachuusha” has cute choreography and an upbeat melody that really gets the energy up.
It could be fun and fresh not only for all-girls schools, but also for coed schools where boys and girls dance together.
Since the athletic festival only happens once a year, go all out and dance like you’re an idol.
It’s a song by a national idol group, so everyone should know it.
VELVETAdam Lambert
Singer-songwriter Adam Lambert, known as the second lead vocalist for the globally popular rock band Queen.
Blessed with a high tenor voice, he is among the world’s best when it comes to high notes, especially powerful, shouted highs.
One of his standout tracks that’s great for creative dance is “VELVET.” Adam Lambert is openly gay, and on this song, he fully embraces and showcases a musical style that foregrounds that gay aesthetic.
Shape of YouEd Sheeran
Ed Sheeran’s smash hit “Shape of You.” In 2019, you heard this song pretty much everywhere.
“Shape of You” has a basically languid vibe, so the tempo doesn’t change.
That makes it an easy track for dance beginners.
Since there’s very little rise and fall in the song, I think it also offers more freedom for choreography than most tracks.
You can move to the rhythm, and it also seems like a great fit for contemporary dance!
MariaHwasa
The classic hit “Maria,” which was a huge success in Korea.
It’s a solo work by Hwasa, a member of MAMAMOO, and it became a hit in both Korea and the English-speaking world.
The track is crafted as very high-quality R&B, but unlike ’90s R&B, it has a danceable edge.
In the latter part, a Latin-inspired sound comes in, making it perfect for creative dance performances that need a standout moment.
It offers a refined musicality not often found in Japan, so it’s a must-check for fans of Black music.
Fireworks Ft. Moss Kena & The KnocksPurple Disco Machine
Purple Disco Machine is the solo project of Tino Piontek, a German artist active as a DJ and remixer.
His electro sound, rooted in 80s synth-pop, is striking and has garnered tremendous popularity not only in his native Germany but also across the English-speaking world.
A recommended track by Purple Disco Machine for creative dance is “Fireworks Ft.
Moss Kena & The Knocks.” Released in February 2021, it’s an energetic tune that blends the essence of 2010s indie pop with 80s disco music.
CALL OF JUSTICETHE RAMPAGE from EXILE TRIBE
A world that fuses animation with the story of LDH’s new project, “BATTLE OF TOKYO.” It’s a track overflowing with the powerful appeal of THE RAMPAGE—set to lead the next generation of EXILE TRIBE while showcasing each unit’s strengths.
The beat-driven sound set in a futuristic city and the energetic choreography are sure to lift your spirits when you dance! The interplay with the fresh, clean vocals is fantastic, making this song perfect for showing off your own original style.
There’s also a sense of openness to it, so it might be nice to incorporate not just strength but also a touch of fluidity.
Another Day of Sunra ra rando kyasuto
“Another Day of Sun,” featured in the opening of the 2016 film La La Land.
Its bubbly, uplifting melody is really striking, isn’t it? There are several sections where the music pauses, which makes it perfect for choreography that wants to create standout moments.
With its luxurious, composed sound, it should pair better with ballroom-style choreography than with something like hip-hop.
