When dance music goes bad

I've spent a fair chunk of this morning reading this ILM thread about new-not-quite-dance people, MSTRKRFT. Leaving aside the worrying PRML SCRMesque splng, the thread is probably not worth reading in full. It's mostly the same old indie-dance vs dance-purist arguments rehashed around a new band.

So, anyway, here's the thing: despite never having heard these chaps, I am fairly sure I'll hate them. ( It's all about the dancing )

I suppose this all serves as an apology for my becoming a dance snob. It's really not about hating fun, it's about 'fun' things sometimes not being fun. I want dance music I can dance to, not pogo to.
