Who is ready to bounce? Who is ready to spin? This week's Top Indie Dance & Nu-Disco selections are all about moving and grooving. Some people say they can't dance, I don't believe that for a second!

We all know you are not Michael Jackson, so cut yourself slack and just accept the fact that we all want to have fun, and that's how great dancing is done.
