My "danceable" music list

I have never taken a liking to dance music, and I usually only find myself on the dance floor whilst heavily smashed. However, just recently I have learned to appreciate good danceable (as I define it) music. My preference has always gravitated towards indie rock and alternative, so I'm really a newbie at this kind of stuff. I'm not good at identifying genres, but I think it would be safe to say that the songs in question are a mash up of electronica, pop, funk, and rock. I just bought myself a decent entry-level ipod docking station and I have been cranking it up full volume and repeatedly playing these hugely enjoyable tracks. Sorry, but hip-hop and r&b songs still remain ostensibly absent from the list. I would rather slash my wrists than be caught dead listening to THAT music (I apologise for having very strong opinions about this. All of us are entitled to be musical snobs anyway).

1. Time to Pretend - MGMT
First heard it from Jim Sturgess' 21 and since then I have been hooked. Love the lyrics too.

2. Electric Feel - MGMT
Totally catchy! And the music video is a complete throwback to the 80's.

3. Must Be the Moon - !!!
I saw !!! (pronounced Chk Chk Chk...check out how they came up with the name) in concert last June and I immensely enjoyed the band. The album this song came from is called Myth Takes - not a five-star quality album but some of tracks are indeed pretty awesome. Must Be the Moon, underrated as it is, is hands down the best thing to come out of '07, methinks. This song will ALWAYS manage to get me in a good mood.

4. Frou Frou's Details Album
Imogen Heap is mesmerizing. I love all the tracks in the album. In fact, these songs have been on heavy rotation in my ipod and laptop for several years now. Pity that the duo only managed to release one album before they disbanded in '03.

5. The Whitest Boy Alive's Dreams Album
For a time I was listening to the whole album on repeat, every single day. According to the band's website, they "started as an electronic dance music project in 2003 in Berlin, but have since slowly developed into a band with no programmed elements". TWBA's vocalist/guitarist is Norwegian Erlend Oye, who is 1/2 of Kings of Convenience. His voice is truly soothing that sometimes you'd be torn between being lulled to sleep and bobbing your head to the music. Note: not all tracks are danceable. Majority are slow and mellow relaxation-ish fare.

6. UFO, and Pictures - Sneaky Sound System
These songs were massive last year in Australia. A bit too loud for my taste but I mainly like them for the nostalgia factor.

7. Sleeping In, District Sleeps Alone Tonight, Such Great Heights,
Nothing Better - Postal Service
I worship Ben Gibbard, so it only follows that I would also love his little side project. Jenny from Rilo Kiley also did guest vocals for them and that's another plus. Electronica has never been this good and listener-friendly.

8. You Were the Last High, We Used to be Friends & other stuff by The Dandy Warhols
They've been around for ages (Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth was one of their earlier hits) but I only started to really listen to them after hearing We Used to be Friends on The O.C. (Adam Brody was dancing to the song) . Yes, I know that the series was pure hogshit, but you gotta admit that the soundtracks were crazy good.
