#SELFIE (Official Music Video) – The Chainsmokers

These days, The Chainsmokers are best known for serious numbers and ephemeral breakup dance tracks, but one of their early hits was this uniquely hard-hitting Melbourne bounce-style song.

Naturally, the bouncy bassline on the off-beat is perfect for shuffle dancing! It’s also the ideal track when everyone wants to nail a unified shuffle routine together.

Personally, I think their humor-filled style like this suits them best.
