StressJustice
It’s a track with a violent, edgy vibe.
I’ve heard that this song, which also has a cinematic feel, was made by cutting up samples from the Godzilla theme! It might be a great fit as background music for a school festival or for a dance track.
CamareroAndra & Descemer Bueno
Andra, a singer from Romania who’s gaining attention on the Latin music scene.
She’s known for classic, quintessential Latin-style songs, and she enjoys huge popularity in the Spanish-speaking world.
One of her signature tracks, Camarero, is a collaboration with Cuban music producer Descemer Bueno and was released in 2019.
It features plenty of reggaeton elements, making it a perfect match for reggae dance as well!
VIDA LOCABlack Eyed Peas, Nicky Jam, Tyga
The Black Eyed Peas, a hip-hop/mixture group that has been churning out global hits with their distinctive sound.
Released in the summer of 2020, “VIDA LOCA” has a Latin flair, as the title suggests.
The track is actually based on MC Hammer’s “U Can’t Touch This,” but it’s arranged with such a strong reggae vibe that you almost don’t notice the source.
It’s a laid-back track with a curious kind of addictiveness, so why not use it as a dance number for a school cultural festival?
YummyJustin Bieber
Released in February 2020 as part of a double release, this is a love song directed at the woman he desires.
The lyrics are intensely passionate—so much so that many women might dream of being addressed in this way by a man.
In contrast to the lyrics, the melody has a slightly sharp, dance-oriented feel.
It’s more suitable for advanced dancers, so if you have dance experience and perform it at a school festival or similar event, you’re sure to capture everyone’s attention.

Featuring the dance-rock band DNCE, the song has an overall synth-pop style that’s very on-trend.
Consider using it as background music for your school festival.
FlowersMiley Cyrus
“Flowers” is a rapidly rising hit by American singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus.
She debuted in 2008 with her first album, “Breakout,” and she’s popular in Japan as well, so it’s a great pick that even people who don’t usually listen to Western music can easily get excited about together.
The song has a mysterious vibe that seems like it would pair well with that kind of dance, too! It’s hugely popular on music streaming services and beyond, so it’s also a top recommendation for anyone looking for stylish Western music.

A collaboration by Sia and Kylie Minogue, “Dance Alone.” Released in February 2024, the song celebrates liberation from heartbreak and the enjoyment of newfound freedom, powerfully conveyed by the two vocalists.
Musically, it blends dance-pop and nu-disco elements, with a catchy melody perfect for school festivals and cultural events.
Produced by Jesse Shatkin and Jim-E Stack, it’s a track that truly distills the appeal of both artists.
