There's been new interest in the Chicago 'footwork' phenomenon, which
is the new school form of Jit/Juke competetive dance. The music is
pretty crazy stuff, growing out of booty house and ghetto tech but
seemingly endless rhythmic variation. They've set up the new Planet
Mu footwork compilation
There's so much going on that it takes a bit to get your head around
many of the footworks tracks, but when you watch vids of these guys
working it in the circle, it's pretty amazing.

My thoughts as well Jeff. I can't say i'm feeling the music at all...
I tried, oh lord did I try ;) But yes, the dance itself is crazy to
watch!

Fat chance anyone on the list is from Beirut, but if there are -
anything decent going on this coming weekend? I'll be there for a
long weekend and wouldn't mind listening to some decent music.

Even more fascinating, I can't think of any analogous dance culture
amongst white people.
Well, there's the Melbourne shuffle, but the moves aren't a patch on the
Chicago stuff, and it's best to watch with the sound off.

I remember seeing groups of kids doing weird dance battles to crappy
hardcore in Alexanderplatz over the last couple of years.
