Recommended songs for the robot dance (11–20)
The RobotsKraftwerk
This is a video from 1991 of a performance broadcast on the Argentine TV show “Telemanías.” At first glance, you can’t tell whether they’re human or robots, right? In fact, these aren’t humans pretending to be robots—it’s a dancing human robot.
The performance was set to a classic track by Kraftwerk.
Their names are Daniel and Leo.
Could this be the first dance music ever actually danced by a robot? If you can pull off this one song, that’s pretty cool.
Make It Bun DemSkrillex & Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley
Here’s a track by the king of dubstep, Skrillex.
The bass sound is distinctive and pairs well with robot dancing.
This type of bass is called a wobble bass and is a signature sound of dubstep, but in this track it especially creates a mood that brings out the unique movements of robot dance.
The man in the video is particularly skilled—so much so that passersby in the background can’t help but stop and watch.
Harder Better Faster StrongerDaft Punk
Personally, my favorite is definitely this song! Daft Punk, the duo who debuted in 1994 and are known for wearing full-face helmets.
With this track, they won Best Single at the 51st Annual Grammy Awards held on February 8, 2009.
It’s a pop tune that makes you feel happy and want to start dancing.
It’s perfect for showing off a robot dance at fun occasions like school festivals or performances.
Match the fast, bouncy beat and try dancing while snapping out those crisp, crackling hits.
Pop Lock FunkDogg Master
How about doing the robot dance to a vocoder-heavy Minneapolis-style funk groove? With this kind of sound making a comeback lately, I bet a lot of people are thinking, “I’ve heard this somewhere before!” Bruno Mars’s album 24K Magic was packed with this kind of vibe.
It’s retro, but you can still feel that ever-shining sparkle in the sound.
There are lyrics, but the flow doesn’t get in the way of the rhythm, so it’s easy to dance to.
Get It UpFingazz
This is a popular track by Fingazz, a major figure who proved the power of the talk box to the world in the 2000s and led talkboxers for over a decade—he’s also hugely popular in Japan.
It’s an upbeat song that explodes right from the intro, and it’s sure to feel great to start dancing to.
The lyrics are quite dense, so you could choreograph tightly to the words, or focus on the sound’s smooth sustain, which also lends itself well to deep, expressive dancing.
Be sure to hype up the crowd with this track!
