I love poing with electronic music... mostly harmonic trance something like that, also some house progressive... any ideas or opinions on music for poing?

Yeah I like using a little old school balaeric trance too. Electro-pop works pretty well too.

But I've recently discovered that Brazillian Capoeira music is fantastic for spinning... especially if it's been remixed with a little elctro funk backbeat behind it.

I like my house(^_^)
Psy-Break is pretty good, tho, sometimes the beat can get a bit repetitive after a while and want it to slow down a bit

I'm not a fan of house or trance. :P

I like breakbeat and metal. Funk and punk are good too. Sometimes, I also enjoy a bit of drum n bass...

My majority of me prefers my metal to any for of trance/electronica at the end of the day.

But If I'm listening to something while spinning it'd have to be Psytrance, Psygoa, Glitch, Industrial/Metalcore (bit of the old NiN)and some electronic (ya Daft Punks and your Justice Very Happy ) Tribal (preferably live).

But if I'm at home it's a whole different ball game.

salsa/latin music are good cos they are designed to be danced to!! i was also at a lame party the other day with a crap disco but some of the songs were a really good poi-ing speed!! completely amazed some of the people there... they were like "woaaah!! how the hell do you do that?!?!"
"Wink im just spectacularly awesome" was my answer of course!! lol... not really... i showed them some of my first easy tricks then told them to come here and buy some!!
but anyway... im not into "beats" and dance music etc... i love the stuff that makes you want to shake it!! haha

R'n'B and Hip Hop. Might sound strange ya people ( since you're all into psy stuff, and electro dance stuff ), but when you get into it, it's really good
