Dance choreography on "Pete Standing Alone"

Post by Yshar »

Hi everyone !!


I'm a huge fan of BoC (i can play "geogaddi hundreds times a day :twisted: ) and I'm also a tribal fusion dancer. You may think " What the f... is this???!!!" I'll answer quickly : an incredible mix of bellydance with hip-hop, and modern dance and for my part also a bit of consciousness awareness, feelings, shamanism...

I made a choreo on my favourite "Music has the right to children"'s track : ¨Pete Standing Alone
I was able to show it on stage during a great down-tempo party, here in France, last November.

Here it is : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvxF9SjwId0
Whether you like or not, I would like to know what you think about it...Does it fit your vision of this track? What is yours? and so on...

Thank you for watching, I'm happy I've discovered this place

See you
We are One

Never attempted dancing to BoC so I'd say you pulled it off pretty damm well, really impressive stuff! I've always imagined this track with fast visuals, kind of like a time lapse off things sped up to impossible time.

Kind of like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bK4gDVPVh88

SO i guess i don't really have a point because you can't really dance like this :P Good job anyway.

It is an interesting vision...I have the same one but for "the beach at redpoint"... :)

For Snufkin : It was the same for me only two years ago lol
just let it go , follow the natural movement of your mind and body ;-)

Once again, thanks. I've sent BoC a message thru myspace...hoping i'll have their opinion too...you never know !

This is not what I was expecting at all. This was very nice. The movements flowed so nicely with the song.

Welcome Yshar

I rarely listen to MHTRTC anymore as I want to keep it special. You certainly make want to put on MHTRTC on high volume again because the moves you did emphasized sounds, sounds I had long forgotten about.

Does it fit my vision? I've never looked at it this way but it certainly fit the music. It did made me realize of how well their music is suitable for modern dance.

Cool stuff Yshar, it's good to see something besides club moves for a change. I really dig your didgeridoo player too, he's pretty talented. You should get him to didg to a boc song while beatboxing, then you can dance to that! Keep it up guys!

No it's not official. They just played it at a slower speed.
