Hey,

People are always talking about 'dance music' what exactly is dance
music anyway? Can you suggest some music that says what 'dance music'
is? For instance, is Jungle thought of as dance music because people
dance to it or is dance music considered strictly techno? The same goes
for 'jazz' this word is thrown around all the time, especially when I am
reading about where acid jazz comes from eg. - acid jazz has its roots
in jazz. But I don't know exactly what the word has reference to. Is it
usually talking about bebop, or 30's swing or what?! Could you suggest
some artists that are considered just 'jazz' too. What is techno too? I
am looking for techno, Reggae and R&B artists as well as this.

Thanks alot for your help
