‘Music For The Dancers’ N°524 – Vintage 2000s Music Videos

From the Ying Yang Twins’ chaotic “Shake” featuring Pitbull to Chicane’s atmospheric “Saltwater,” the selections cover a range of mid-2000s club essentials. “Shake” brings crunk energy but leans heavily on its George Kranz sampling, while Pitbull’s input adds flair without redefining the track. Meanwhile, Chicane’s “Saltwater,” blending Máire Brennan’s vocals with trance beats, captures a striking blend of Celtic influences and dancefloor appeal, making it a highlight of the era.

Other notable entries include Dannii Minogue’s “You Won’t Forget About Me,” pairing Ibiza-inspired instrumentals with dance-pop lyrics reflecting fleeting summer flings, and Nu Circles’ “What You Need (Tonight),” showcasing Emma B’s vocals in a polished but predictable production. Mauro Picotto and Mario Più’s “Arabian Pleasure” experiments with varying remixes, though only the extended formats carry significant weight.
